Penguini or Penguine (penguin pasta)

“Linguine” is a pasta. The continent of Antarctica doesn’t have a “penguine” or “penguini” pasta made for (or of) penguins—and there is no such named pasta shaped like penguins—but there are penguine/penguini jokes.
   
“Penguini’s a wonderful pasta. Really. Marinara, of course” was posted on the newsgroup alt.edgar on July 11, 1998. “Mmmm… pasta penguini…” was posted on the newsgroup alt.fan.cecil-adams on August 10, 2002. “PENGUINE ALLA MATRICIANA” was posted on the newsgroup alt.religion.kibology on December 7, 2002.

Wikipedia: Linguine
Linguine (Italian: [liŋˈɡwiːne], English: /lɪŋˈɡwiːni/) is a type of pasta similar to fettuccine and trenette but elliptical in section rather than flat. It is about 4 millimetres (0.16 in) in width, which is wider than spaghetti but not as wide as fettuccine. The name linguine means “little tongues” in Italian, where it is a plural of the feminine linguina.

The penguin-flavoured pasta fad ended; Greenpeace had revealed the way the Antarctican Penguine Factories were slaughtering the birds. #vss
