Why do you put salt in water while cooking pasta?

Salt is a solute in water that will raise its boiling point and lower its freezing temperature. (this is why you put salt on ice to melt it, and why the ocean doesn't freeze solid when lakes will) Conversely, if you put it in a pot of water, it will allow the water to get hotter before it begins to boil. Without salt, it will be at 210 degrees Fahrenheit. Depending on how much salt you add, this number can go up and up. So, the spaghetti cooks at a hotter temperature with salt added than without.

And buying pasta with a higher fiber and grain content and marinara without sugars and corn syrups will help. And don't over eat!

How do you get pasta sauce out of clothing?

If the stain has been washed and dried...then you may be stuck with it, but if it is a new stain...I use Mean Green on my family's and my clothes and removes stains better then most stain removers, it is really good at removing greasy food stains. You can find it in the same sections as the 409 (which I used to use on stains until I switched to Mean Green).

Blot the stain immediately, then run cold water through the BACK of the stain. Then apply liquid soap/detergent and work it in. Rinse and repeat until stain is gone; you may add a step of bleach or lemon or vinegar if fabric is white. The key seems to be to repeat until stain is gone without letting fabric dry! Once fabric dries, the stain sets.
