So, if a man eats a pound of pasta and a pound of antipasto...would they cancel each other out, leaving the man still hungry?
First, definition of Antipasto is the traditional first course of a formal Italian meal. Typical ingredients of a traditional antipasto include cured meats, olives, peperoncini, mushrooms, anchovies, artichoke hearts, various cheeses, pickled meats, and vegetables in oil or vinegar.
Well the answer is simple. Pasta is food and so is antipasto. This problem isn't math where you cancel out the + and the -, but just some basic common sense. Pasta will fill your stomach and so will antipasto leaving the man really full. Antipasto doesn't mean Anti pasta otherwise some people will go crazy about it thinking if you touch antipasto with pasta it'll explode!
Let's see what your opinions are!
