but my mental activity is soaring after eating a plate of pasta - it must have something to do with it

After eating pasta, you may be feeling smarter because you have nourished your brain.
The chance of your IQ going up just from pasta is slim to none odds.

Italian shoes and suits make you smart.
Italian carbohydrates might give you an edge. They at least demonstrate your body's recurring desire for good middle-term energy release, and your mind's willingness to cooperate. It connotes a good instinct to live onwards, rather than satiate and gorge for immediate pleasure (viz. sugar and fat).
So i would say pasta will not increase your mind's capacity., but instead should let you know that you are not a fool today.

Pasta is a high-carbohydrate but low-GI food which makes it popular with marathon-type activities - it is probably giving you a slow release energy boost which makes you feel more alert.
Lots of great recipes too!

No. It is only known to make you fatter.
Some people love its taste and texture and could eat a bucket of home made sauce on it. However I have never heard "smarter" used to describe its results.

no, not at all. but if its a food you really enjoy, it could be a phsycologiacal thing. you could eat it, and like it, and it makes you feel better about yourself, so you feel smarter.

i dont think you can eat something and suddenly be a genius
maybe overtime, if you exercise your brain right and eat the right food but not right away
i think thats all in your head, sorry
