“The mayor and his gang continue to ignore the Sixth Ward. It’s no surprise when we see construction dumping and other trash dumped in every neighborhood. This week, there was a new type of dumping, of excess food, PASTA”wrote.

According to witnesses, arbitrarily discarded food occupied a total area of ​​25 feet (7.6 meters). Furthermore, it was stated that the pasta was cooked and accompanied by other ingredients. Public cleaning workers arrived at the scene to proceed with the removal of the food.

Who dumped 500 pounds of pasta by the side of a US creek?

“About 500 pounds of pasta was dumped along the creeks that intersect with Hilliard and Mimi. Although our town manager has been informed, it seems the mayor can’t do what he needs to do.”Jochnowitz added.

The publication went viral and generated all kinds of reactions among users. While some made jokes about the possible origin of the event, the truth is that it could generate a considerable impact on the environment.

“We might think: ‘but who cares about a little money?’. But noodles have a pH that alters that of water”Jochnowitz told The Philadelphia Inquirer. “It is important to keep this creek clean as it feeds into the city’s water supply”he added.

Possible origin of the event

The staff who carried out the cleanup noted that, contrary to what was initially stated, the mountains of pasta were not cooked and had rather softened from direct contact with moisture.

At the moment, the Old Bridge authorities do not know the origin of the paste, but the neighbors shared their own theories about it.

Even though there is a Chinese restaurant and a nursing home in the same neighborhood, it is believed that a man would have been the cause when cleaning the home of his mother, who recently passed away.

“I really feel like he was just trying to empty out his parents house and they were probably stocked up since Covid”commented Keith Rosta neighbor, in conversation with NBC New York.
