Grammar mistake in the 1st, spelling mistake in the 2nd. ;) - chaparrito, Sep 20, 2010

The second one. Spaghetti is considered singular in English, so "cooks" is the proper conjugation.

Uno, dos, tres.... primera, segunda, tercera.... :-) Not the first one. - 0074b507, Sep 21, 2010
That;s weird. I must have glanced at the first answer when typing. Actually, chaparrito's right. They're both wrong. - KevinB, Sep 21, 2010

"Spaghetti cooks in 8 minutes" would be right.
