According to one legend, in the 16th century, the owner of a tavern located in the vicinity of Naples prepared noodles for visitors.

Seeing these toys, the owner of the tavern decided to boil them, and served to the guests, pouring tomato sauce. Visitors liked the dish.
Neapolitans began to come to the institution, thanks to which the owner made a fortune. He spent the money spent on the construction of a factory that produced such unusual products for that time.
The entrepreneur's name was Marco Aroni. The dish itself, no matter how hard to guess, was called pasta in honor of the inventor.
