9. Pasta wasn’t eaten with tomato sauce until the 1600’s in Italy.
Until then, it was generally eaten with honey and sugar. Today, there are more than 500 varieties of pasta eaten in Italy.
10. Musical notations are always in Italian.
Allegro, Adagio…these are Italian words to indicate tempo, and came about because an Italian named Guido d’Arezzo came up with a system for modern-day musical notation.
