This is not a question of worldly importance, but it's something I've pondered for a while and haven't come up with a satisfying answer to, not even a guess. Every cooking pot I've ever owned, except an aggressively oversized one, has had a diameter smaller than the length of the spaghetti that I purchase.

Do I snap the spaghetti in half, or do I let it dangle half-in, half-out until the end softens up and I can fit the rest of the spaghetti into the water? Well, I still don't know. Why isn't there "pot-sized spaghetti"? And how did we arrive at this as the standard length for spaghetti?
