As if angel hair pasta wasn't already an abomination! :D

I have to be very care buying spaghetti, because I have to carefully avoid tubular, thin, instant, spaghettoni, etc. As well as fettuccine and others because they're in similar packaging. My family is distraught if they get served anything other than the standard no.4 spaghetti!

I'm not the biggest fan of angel hair either, but one thing that it does have going for it is that it cooks about as fast as fresh pasta, like 2-3 mins. It's no bucatini but in a pinch or with small hungry humans to feed it's nice to have around.

Exactly this! And you have to expect that as the diameter approaches zero your pasta becomes indistinguishable from a gelatinous lump of gluten aka paste.
