According to the cube rule of food, pasta is a type of nachos. I have no idea how this is helpful though.

My own 2 cents is that something like string theory is at play here… the dimensionality of the sandwich is all wrapped up in what appears to be a 1-dimensional carbohydrate noodle, but if you could zoom in with a crazy powerful electronic microscope, theoretically the pasta might actually look like a stupendously long sub sandwich.

It’s all a matter of perspective.
