A mountain of uncooked pasta It appeared dumped near a stream in the state of New Jersey, in the northeast of the United States, which generated all kinds of speculation about the origin and reasons for this unusual garbage.
The pasta appeared in the town of Old Bridge, near New York, late April. A resident posted on Facebook photos of the letter-shaped mountain of spaghetti, macaroni and pasta washed up on the bank of a stream in a wooded area, where it is not uncommon for old mattresses and other trash to turn up, according to local media.
The volume of the pasta is equivalent to about “fifteen wheelbarrows”City administrator Himanshu Shah told AFP in a statement on Friday.
Employees of the public works department and police officers went to the scene after seeing the images circulating on the internet.
“We estimate that several hundred kilograms of uncooked pasta was taken out of the packaging and thrown into the stream,” Shah added.
The workers loaded all the food in less than an hour and disposed of it properly, he explained.
“It looks like it was there for a short time, but the moisture started to soften some of the paste,” Shah said, adding that police were investigating the source.
Who threw away this amount of pasta? The local press and many of the city’s 65,000 inhabitants speculate that it could be a canceled restaurant or catering service.
