A pasta-loving subway rider got into a brawl with a fellow passenger over eating etiquette.

An argument over eating etiquette on the subway led to a fierce brawl between a pasta-loving passenger and a middle-aged straphanger, an online video shows.

The YouTube clip begins with a woman chowing down on spaghetti while trading barbs with another woman sitting across from her on a subway car.

The feud escalates a few minutes in when the middle-aged passenger asks the woman, What kind of animals eat on the train?

The diner responds, What kind of fat ---- looks like you?

After several more tense exchanges, the diner - with plate of food in hand - and her friend go face to face with the other woman, leading to the all-out brawl.

As onlookers try to calm the parties, the two women push each other, then start swinging - sending the spaghetti flying.

Multiple passengers eventually break up the fight, including a man who is scratched in the face as a result of his efforts.

Y'all need to chill out! he yells at one point.

We the child, she grown, the passenger with the pasta responds.

She need to chill out, she or her friend adds.

The clip was first reported Friday by NYC the Blog.

According to the user who uploaded the video, the incident took place on a Brooklyn train. No information was given on when it happened or whether anyone was arrested over the fight.
