125 Best Spaghetti Puns You Won't Want To Pas-ta
A staple in Italian cooking, spaghetti is a type of pasta that originated from the country and is long, cylindrical, thin, and solid.
The Italian word translates to "little twine" and is enjoyed in many countries around the world. Spaghetti is most commonly served with either a tomato based sauce by the name of 'bolognese', with meatballs, or with a creamy, herby sauce.
Spaghetti belongs to the pasta family, meaning it's made from a simple dough that doesn't rise. The dough is then rolled into sheets or shapes before cooking by boiling (and occasionally baking).
The majority of dried pasta are made from water and semolina flour only. Fresh pasta may have some egg added, but for the most part, all you need to make some yummy pasta are flour and water, mixed into a paste. Speaking of paste, the Italian version of the word is where pasta comes from.

49 Pineapple Puns That Are Super Sweet
Here are some of the best pineapple puns out there, that are oh-so sweet!
The pineapples that many love to eat originated in South America.
When Christopher Columbus came across the fruit during an expedition to the Americas in the fifteenth century, he named it the 'piña de Indes', meaning 'pine of the Indians' because the shape reminded him of pinecones, and he still thought he was in Asia, hence the reference to India.
The English adopted the 'pine' element of the name, and 'apple' came from the Old English 'æpple' which, at the time, was used to describe most fruits. For example, the date fruit was once known as the 'finger apple'.
Fast forward a few decades and voila, 'pineapple'. The pineapple is actually known as the 'ananas' fruit in German, Greek, Hebrew, Turkish, Arabic, Latin, Swedish, French, Esperanto, and Hindi and around 30 other languages. Pineapple, on the other hand, is only used in 10 languages.
You might be surprised to know that pineapples ripen faster upside down and that a single pineapple plant will produce a single pineapple, unlike most plants where planting a single seed will yield several new plants. Also, pineapples aren't hard to grow: if you plant pineapple leaves into the ground, you can use them to grow a new pineapple!
Pineapples can take up to 20 months to become ready to harvest, but even longer to fully grow.
And once that starts, pineapple plants in the wild can live for up to 50 years. What's more, one third of all pineapples in the world are produced in Hawaii!
Got yourself a pineapple crown that you want to grow? Why not name it Piney (the Pineapple), Petunia (the Pineapple), Pedro (the Pineapple), Petra (the Pineapple), Lil Pine, Spongebob's House or Core Blimey (for those who fancy a pun for a name)?

62 Fox Puns That Are Super Clever
Foxes are shrewd and clever mammals with narrow faces and long, bushy tails that are covered in thick, short fur.
You might be familiar with the red fox, the one with the reddish-brown fur and white tip at the end of its tail. What may surprise you is that the colour of fox fur can range from all white, to mixed red and black to all black (with a white tip at the end of its tail).
Did you know that a group of foxes was called a leash (or skulk)? Yep, not all animal groups simply go by group or herd. What's more, a young fox is called a cub (or pup), a female fox a vixen and a male fox a dog fox.
Foxes have small bodies, and as a result, small tummies. The size of the meals that foxes eat are (you guessed it) small, so they eat often throughout the day.
Their favourite munchies are rodents (especially mice) but they'll also eat squirrels, rabbits, birds, lizards, bugs and chickens. As they're often around humans too, you could find foxes in your garden, eating fruits, berries and even dog food! There's so much that makes foxes special, and here are some puns to match!

47 Leaf Puns That Won't Leave You Wanting
The humble leaf is a vital organ in the lives of many plants.
Leaves are responsible for the absorption of carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapour (H2O) from the air, in order for plants to convert this to glucose and oxygen. This process is called photosynthesis and the glucose fuels plants with the energy they need to function properly.
You'll rarely see a single leaf alone on a plant stem, as the whole plant needs a lot of CO2 and H2O to be absorbed at a time in order to have enough energy. Leaves absorb a lot of sunlight into their bodies, this sunlight acts as fuel for the photosynthesis process to take place.
You may or may not be aware of the fact that leaves have pores on their surface (little holes called 'stomata') which open and close to make sure the amounts of CO2 and other gases in the surrounding atmosphere are just right.
What's more, the largest undivided leaf is the giant edible arum, which can be up to 305cm across!

104 Vegan Puns That Are To-Funny For Words
A vegan is a person who doesn't eat anything that has come from an animal, nor do they use animal products.
This means they don't eat any meat, neither do they eat eggs, cheese, yoghurt or other dairy products. They also try to avoid products that come from animals, such as honey, pearls, feathers, leather and wool, not to mention products that have been tested on animals.
It seems like a lot but there are still many foods vegans can eat and many materials from which their clothes can be made. Vegans can eat vegetables, beans, fruits, nuts, seeds and grains. What's more, there are a variety of milks out there as dairy substitutes, like almond, oat, coconut, soy, and rice milks.
What about the tasty sweet treats non-vegans enjoy? If you swap the non-vegan ingredients for vegan substitutes, you get plenty of vegan cakes, sweets and other desserts for vegans to enjoy.
