I opened this post thinking I’d learn some new idiomatic expression I didn’t know about. Like “it is not a pasta you’d sleep on”, or “don’t sleep on my pasta, you idiot”, or “your ravioli pillow is pathetic”. But alas…

Don't let the pasta get cold before sleeping on it

If you sit by the pasta for long enough, you will see the body of your enemy sleeping on it

Giant pan of lasagna and it isn’t even close.

Good idea, I'm concerned it would tear though

Your bed is seeing a lot more action than mine is, clearly

I would be more concerned eating the bed, personally ;)

Best: Pearl couscous.

Worst: dry angel hair.

Acini di pepe is basically a bean bag.

I'm going spaghetti, I can maneuvere it into different positions easily. I could loop it, lay it out, squidge it into a ball etc and i'd have options

Yeah! And don't let anyone elbow in.

"But I wanna cuscus with you!"

NO!

I'd imagine cooked rigatoni.

With the mass amount of pasta in addition to it's cylindrical shape creating somewhat of a cushion maybe that one?

Uncooked any pasta sounds like hell for sleeping on as it'd become a bed of pasta shrapnel

Uncooked orzo might be a solid contender though. Cooked pasta will turn into mush if you lay on it

Barilla is my favourite.
