The Benedetto Cavalieri Spaghettoni are one of the most famous pasta of this artisan pasta producer, as well as spaghetti are one of the most popular Italian pasta in the world.

Until the end of the 19th century, spaghetti were a very popular dish in southern Italy and, although the fork was already in use for some time, the spaghetti were commonly eaten with hands.

Forks actually used in that period were impractical to use, very pointed and with only three prongs.

Gennaro Spadaccini, Chamberlain at the Court of King Ferdinando II of Borbone, made a fork more practical to use.

He reduced the size and introduced the fourth prong.

This new fork allowed noble tables to serve the coveted spaghetti. Nevertheless, among the lower classes the habit to eat spaghetti with hands remained widespread for much longer.
