Spaghetti Eating Shirt

Many people have what they call a “spaghetti eating shirt,” to be worn while the user is eating spaghetti. When the spaghetti sauce gets on the shirt (as expected), it’s not as bad because the user intends to wash the shirt or to get rid of it. “This Is My Spaghetti Eating Shirt” has been printed on several shirts.

“Me eating:  / My white shirt: Let me taste it.” is a related joke.

I think I need to get a “strictly spaghetti eating” shirt bc it’s physically impossible for me to eat it and not get it all over me

The bad news is
I went out for dinner and I forgot to wear my spaghetti eating shirt. The good news is I have a brand-new spaghetti eating shirt.
