I was out browsing my local sex shop one day and I stumbled across Mama Peckeroni's Penis Pasta and the first thing that came out of my mouth was "oh my God, my mom would get such a kick out of this!" My boyfriend at the time just shook his head and wandered off. Well, since pasta keeps so well, and my current fiance and I went away to celebrate our Valentine's weekend, I thought this would be the perfect addition to our celebration.

The package is really cute, I think. It has the "traditional" box of pasta feel to it but it doesn't take much looking to figure out that it is definitely not your average pasta. They run with the Italian colors theme with the top and bottom of the box being red and the back being green. The front has an illustration of Mama Peckeroni holding a bowl of which the middle is actually a window to see the pasta inside. She's standing against a backdrop of the leaning tower of Pisa. (Sorry if I spelled that wrong).

One side of the box has the 'story' of Mama Peckeroni. It tells us that she blends the Italian passion for cooking and romance to bring you this unique delicacy and is praised in her homeland for being the Cupid of cooking.

The other side of the box has all your fun nutritional facts and such.
- Serving size: 2 oz (about 3/4) of a cup (total servings per box is about 5)
- Amount per serving: 210 calories and 10 calories from fat
- Based on a 2,000 calorie per day diet from 1 serving you will get 1G of total fat which should be about 2% of your daily intake. 0g saturated, .5g polyunsaturated, 0g monosaturated fats. 0% cholesterol and 0% sodium. 13% total carbohydrates at 40g. 2g of dietary fiber, 2g of S sugar, and 9g of protein. 8% iron, 10% riboflavin, 10% thiamin, and 5% niacin.

The ingredients are located on the bottom of the box and consist of 100% Durum Semolina and water. I also went and looked at a few other pasta boxes we had laying around and Mama Peckeroni has the fewest ingredients listed, which did surprise me a little bit. I also went and did a little bit of research on what exactly durum semolina was, because I saw it listed on all the boxes I looked at but honestly had no idea what it was. Basically it's like a wheat flour, so if you have wheat allergies, you should probably stay away.

The back of the box has two recipes for sauces that you can make to go with your yummy peckers. "You can't Beat-a my Meat-a sauce" and "You'll Scream-a for my Cream-a Sauce." I haven't personally tried either of these yet, but I intend to keep the box so that I can.

Inside the box is a plastic bag containing all of Mama's peckers. Each of Mama's peckers measures about 1" long and 1/2" across at the balls. The shape consists of a small head, a shaft, and 2 balls down at the base.

Cooking these is as easy as cooking macaroni noodles. Just boil some water, toss in your desired amount, and wait until your peckers are completely soft! (I know, the only time you actually want a soft pecker)

So I won't lie, these have been sitting on my shelf for quite a while now, but I've never known uncooked pasta to go bad, so I wasn't worried about it.

It didn't occur to me while we were cooking that we weren't going to end up wanting all that much of the box, so we ended up with a whole bunch of leftovers, but it did only take about 10 minutes to cook about 3/4 of what was in the box.

Mama's peckers taste just like any old pasta, and were delicious with a little bit of butter.

The only problem I see with these is that I would have a hard time justifying paying $7 to eat tiny penises all the time, but after having said that, I don't think people would normally want to eat little tiny penis pasta all the time either, lol.

Since this is an edible product, there really isn't anything for me to come back to later, other than a little bit of extra uncooked pasta. So I thought I would give you some easy recipes that you could use your penis pasta in!

There's some fun recipes on this site like "last minute lasagna" and even a low-fat fettuccine alfredo!

The Food Network has a section of 100 easy pasta recipes.

And here's some that use chicken.

I know there are plenty more recipes and such, but I'm gonna flip through some of these the next time I bust out my novelty pasta :)
