Top: Elbows with ridges
Bottom: Bowties
Like what are bowties even for, they don't hold onto the sauces well, and they're too big to put more than two or three on the fork, and the middle bit cooks slower than the wings so it's mushy when the middle is done, and it's also too hard to munch on like you can with stricks of spaghet. Bowtie defenders please explain.
I like cascatelli, you can steal it pretty easily from Whole Foods in the US. They're like funny little tentacles that work great with any sauce you can think of.
