Did spaghetti originate in Italy?
It is widely accepted that spaghetti originated in China following Marco Polo's travels to the country.
What is for sure is that commercial contact with China during the Renaissance period did encourage the cooking of noodle type pasta into Italy. No. Noodles have been known to be produced worldwide since prehistory. We know that during the Roman empire, and undoubtedly long before, noodles were manufactured; there is evidence for this. All over the world, noodles have been made for centuries. Italy is famous for its pasta made with eggs and semolina; China is known for its rice noodles, but basically it's all a matter of using available ingredients to provide something to go with the sauce.
