I watched this earlier today as well as the story about house-hippos and jackalopes. All three were very funny.

That one is legendary. Of course in those days actual spaghetti wasn't available in this country, we only got little spaghetti hoops in tins of tomato sauce! So people could easily believe something so outlandish. Nowadays of course pasta in all sorts of shapes, fresh and dried, is available in every supermarket.
