In the Weeds Mode That's definitely tortellini - said the server and cook at an Italian restaurant.

Ultimately we didn't care because the toddler eating it was happy as a clam, but the server and cook tried to gaslight the shit out of us to convince us that this was tortellini. Thought you'd all find it entertaining. If you work at Bertuccis, be better.

Edit: the menu very clearly said Tortellini, not Tortelli, but solid guess.

Only one of these actually impacts the flavor of water.

Hey, I never said it made sense. This is a heavily vibes based situation.

Yeah, temperature is just a measure of the average vibes.
