I first saw this video back in the mid 90's when I was living in A-dam. Fast forward to today, my wife made spaghetti sauce from a bumper crop of tomatoes. (@Moe.Red , @Aqua Man @smoke and all that helped me with my RDWC trainer tomato, remember I transplanted her into a pot? Here are the results! ) 
So we had some super delish spaghetti for lunch today and on our walk this evening, I made the comment to her that next time I would have to grow some fresh noodles.... and when I got home we both had a good laugh.
Here is what happened, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaghetti-tree_hoax
The spaghetti-tree hoax was a three-minute hoax report broadcast on April Fools' Day 1957 by the BBC current-affairs programme Panorama, purportedly showing a family in southern Switzerland harvesting spaghetti from the family "spaghetti tree". At the time spaghetti was relatively unknown in the UK, so many British people were unaware that it is made from wheat flour and water; a number of viewers afterwards contacted the BBC for advice on growing their own spaghetti trees. Decades later, CNN called this broadcast "the biggest hoax that any reputable news establishment ever pulled".[1]
and here is the video on how to grow your own spaghetti!
