Hah, thanks for spoiling my next post here! Seeing the Spaghetti-Os one reminded me of one of the oldest and dumbest rules in wargaming; that’s from The Campaign for North Africa: The Desert War 1940–43, where Italian units need extra water to cook noodles.
You know the best thing about this rule? It’s not even realistic - historically the Italians just cooked their pasta ration in the sauce that came in the cans.
edit: oh damn, you were the one who posted this on mastodon, nice.
