What is Pastafazoola?

My dearly departed grandfather Albert Miller - the inspiration for my humor and this blog - and I used to say a lot of silly catch-phrases to each other, from my boyhood right through his passing just over a month ago. One of our favorite standbys was "Pastafazoola!" - Grandpa's silly-ization of the Italian beans-and-pasta soup "Pasta i fagioli." Why he liked saying this (he was Jewish, not Italian), and in this particular fashion, must remain a mystery for all time. However, I am open to any and all theories. So get on it, people!
