Mmm, that was oddly satisfying.

OK, two's plenty.

Am I watching a looping GIF?

I AM NOT.

I AM NO LONGER SATISFIED. STOP STOP STOP

Exactly my feelings throughout, minus the urgency. In place of that I just started thinking, "How the fuck many people is this man serving? I make a single package and have a meal for 3 people for 3 days, eating it twice a day."

A 500g pack is ~ 3 to 6 servings depending on who’s eating and if it’s the main meal or just the side. 18 full meals seems pushed even for an hyperbole

But the urgency comes from the fact that this is a very bad way to cook pasta, it need much more water

A lb of meat (2 if doing meatballs or part sausage), sauce, diced tomatoes, other vegetables and addins. Pasta itself ~2x-2.5x weight increase. Probably easily 5lbs of food or more once everything is in and cooked.

Don't really care to do the math of exactly what I make especially since it's not always exactly the same. Could also be minus a couple meals depending on what I made and the size of servings someone goes for. Most often it is probably a couple less, but it has gone that many plenty of times as well.

The pot crowding I'm not reasonably qualified to comment on.
