You could spend hours just looking at all the pasta shapes that are available . . .
That's four aisles of pasta!
It took me a while to get the picture below. A woman was arguing with her mother (in Italian) about how many cans of crushed tomatoes they would need to make "Bolognese" for the family party. I wish I could have gone to that party . . . (Alas, the ladies did not wish to be photographed!)

One of the nice things about Caputo's is that, although, clearly Italian in character, they are not snobs about it. While you might find an end cap stocked with nothing but Sicilian chocolate nougats with almonds and honey, you won't have any trouble finding Twinkies (if you must), or Ballpark Franks (I didn't forget, David!).
Stay tuned tomorrow for more adventures at Caputo's! Next: What to put on all that pasta!

Wow, who would have thought there were that many kinds of pasta? I'd love to visit that store!
That is an amazing bunch of pasta! Wow! I'd love to have a store like that near me. YUM!
All that pasta - I've just gained back those 5 pounds I've been working the dickens to lose. haha! This location just screams 'two elderly Italian women' talking with their hands. (believe there must be some Italian in my blood because my mom could never talk without the use of her hands). lol!
It must be so much fun to be in this store. . . and I can just imagine how heavenly it must smell! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm . . . . . . .
Heaven, I'm in heaven.....
MMMMMMMMMM......I would be in heaven. I hate how we don't have places like this in Maine! It just must be amazing to have such variety.
