How can you turn a handful of uncooked spaghetti into a night of free drinks at the bar? Try betting your friends (or enemies or total strangers) that they can't bend a strand of spaghetti until it breaks into two pieces - if they can, you owe them a drink. But if it splits into three or more pieces, they owe you. Prepare to get blotto. A couple of scientists in France actually researched the spaghetti-breaking phenomenon and found it's impossible to split it in two by bending. HAVE A TRY AND LET ME KNOW HOW YOU GET ON

if you dip the middle in a glass of fluid for a bit then you can.

Do you want to add, 'dried' before spaghetti? It's easy to bend fresh, uncooked spaghetti.

Someone probably earned a PhD for that government-paid-for research......

It's true. This is called the Musolini effect.
