You often think that just because you call something by a certain name, everyone else does too.<\/p>\n

However, it was apparent just how wrong that statement was this week after an online post went viral.<\/p>\n

One food lover took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to post about what Americans call penne pasta.<\/p>\n

And he admitted it made him 'feel sick', as others agreed it was odd.<\/p>\n

What was the name that got him so offended I hear you ask?<\/p>\n

Noodles. Yes that's right, people in the US apparently call penne pasta noodles.<\/p>\n

The original poster shared a photo shared by an American that featured a guy with penne pasta on his lap.<\/p>\n

Written over it were the words: "He doesn't even like noodles."<\/p>\n

The original man captioned his post "Americans call penne pasta noodles? I feel like I'm gonna be sick."<\/p>\n

Many agreed with him, as one person replied: "They call everything noodles and technically they are but yeah it\u2019s odd to me as an Italian."<\/p>\n

While another added: "The other day I heard one call lasagna sheets \u2018noodles\u2019 and had to stay off my phone for a while."<\/p>\n

"It\u2019s one of my biggest pet peeves," chimed in a third.<\/p>\n

While a fourth added: "It drives my bonkers."<\/p>\n

Some people from the US didn't see what his problem was though, with one person replied: "With sauce too. Love noodz and gravy."<\/p>\n

Another asked: "What else we gone call them? Since you got your degree."<\/p>\n

Despite this, others argued a lot of people from America don't even call them noodles.<\/p>\n

"One woman saying it doesn\u2019t mean every American babes," wrote one.<\/p>\n

While another said: "Uhh no. Unless it\u2019s a toddler, people call it penne."<\/p>\n

Whatever way, the post definitely got a reaction – racking up more than 202,000 views.<\/p>\n

Who know pasta could be so controversial, eh?<\/p>\n
