1
00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: Today's Daily Highlight from Elvis Duran in the Morning Show.

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 2: So yesterday we went to check out Andrew's blood drive

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 2: in Jersey City. Then we rolled back into the city

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 2: and we went to Odeon to see our friend Erin

5
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 2: and we had the pasta special.

6
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 1: Both pasta specials. Well, I guess the spaghetti's on the

7
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: main that's on the menu.

8
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 2: It was spaghetti with the Boldones, which was amazing. But

9
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:23,919
Speaker 2: their pasta special was it was spinach.

10
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, that's one of my favorite dishes.

11
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 2: With just a light chunks of tomato on top. It's

12
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 2: very simple and garnet chips so good.

13
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,560
Speaker 1: I felt so happy eating that meal.

14
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 2: I thought about it repeatedly throughout the rest of the Well,

15
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 2: I'm glad you brought it up. He actually, actually, Froggy

16
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 2: brought this up yesterday in Food News. There was a

17
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:47,560
Speaker 2: study done, of course in Italy, which very about how

18
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 2: pasta for most people brings this high line of happiness.

19
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 2: And I was thinking when you did the story yesterday, Froggy, Well,

20
00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 2: maybe it's the gluten, the flower. No, it's the act

21
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 2: of eating pasta. The pasta hits all these happy rooms

22
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 2: in your brain and it brings back great memories of

23
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 2: something or there's just something so wonderful and eyes rolling

24
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: back in your head. Great about eating pasta?

25
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 1: You're making me so hungry.

26
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 2: Well, I'm not trying to make you hungry.

27
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 3: It's a comfort food. But you said, yeah, but like

28
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 3: mashed potatoes are a comfort food. So what's the difference

29
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 3: between like that and that?

30
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 2: Okay, mash poto is a fantastic, very comforting, But there's

31
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 2: something about pasta.

32
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: What do you think it is? Just the happy happy

33
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: rooms in your brain?

34
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what. So so it may be different

35
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 2: for all of us if you're an Italian American, especially

36
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 2: growing up in an Italian American household, you know, it

37
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 2: brings back the comfort of family and Grandma Sunday you Nona, Yeah,

38
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 2: your Madia pasta. It takes me back to a simpler time,

39
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: My aunt Millie, my great grandma in the kitchen making

40
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 2: the sauce and then pouring it over the pasta. So yeah,

41
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 2: so every time a neat pasta to this day, it takes.

42
00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: Me right there.

43
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,040
Speaker 3: I remember Grandma would fry the meat.

44
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 2: And eat a half of them. Word.

45
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 3: So yeah, so she would let us all have one

46
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 3: before she put it in the Sunday sauce and I

47
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 3: was like, it was so good. Harms were so good.

48
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 2: Okay, well, see I'm being from Texas. You know, pasta

49
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 2: was not you know, number one as far as the

50
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 2: cuisine known from our region. We ate steaks. Yeah, right,

51
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 2: So anyway, but when my mom did serve pasta, it

52
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 2: made me really happy. There is just something about it.

53
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 2: So anyway, they did this study and actually it was

54
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,359
Speaker 2: a great story about it in Food and Wine magazine online. Right,

55
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 2: they talk about all the different components of pasta eating.

56
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 2: The researchers watched and quantified the participant's facial expressions and

57
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 2: determined that a bowl of pasta was equally likely to

58
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,520
Speaker 2: be an indicator of happiness as that person's favorite song

59
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 2: or watching their favorite sports team play a game.

60
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 3: Wow.

61
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 2: Through this study, science has put itself at the service

62
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:04,119
Speaker 2: of emotions to certify that pasta and happiness are one.

63
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:06,079
Speaker 1: And there you go.

64
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 2: So today, or if you have some okay, let's let's

65
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 2: let'sten study an application for this. You have a friend

00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 2: who needs uplifting, a friend that's coming some rough times, whatever,

71
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, wow, instead of letting me cake, let them eat pasta.

72
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 2: Exactly.

73
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 1: We should have pasta for breakfast.

74
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 2: I'll do it.

75
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 1: Well, national have fun at workday, let's go it is.

76
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: But you know the people who are serving pasta at

00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: this hour and I don't know what you know, yeah, maybe.

78
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: Okay, maybe it's great.

79
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 2: And by the way, people are texting and saying, well,

80
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 2: you know, it's the physiological things. No, no, no, no, we're

81
00:03:54,200 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 2: not talking about what the actual flower and suit glucose

82
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 2: readings are. That's not it. Not what we're talking about.

83
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 2: We're talking about sitting down in that first bite before

84
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 2: it activates anything biologically in your stomach.

85
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: I'm looking at pictures of pasta and I feel happy, exactly.

86
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. Anyway, love it. With that said, the pasta industry

87
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 2: is gonna write us a big fat check. We're gonna

88
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 2: make them very wealthy today. The family, the Checko family

89
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 2: calling it, what is that? What is that? That is yunky,

90
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 2: And some people will do that argument when yank is

91
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:33,279
Speaker 2: not pasta.

92
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: I double checked before says it's a type of pasta.

Speaker 2: I will, I will say it's pasta till the end

94
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: of time.

00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 3: It's potato, right, or something it can be.

96
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: It's dumpling, you get dumpling right.

97
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 2: You can make nyilky out of ricotta cheese, which Isca

98
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 2: is amazing, and it's just like eating little pillows of air.

99
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 2: All right, gotta move on now, we're very happy. Daniel
