There's a reason the first thing most people learn how to cook is pasta: It's impossible to mess up - or so we thought. Pasta is the answer to so many of life's questions, but the universe just threw us a curveball with this pasta straining hack that's turned our world upside down and has us questioning the very essence of our being.

#1 Twitter user @Daibellaaa was one of many people to share an easier way to drain pasta.
#2 To remove the water, most of us tip our pasta into a sieve.

#3 We then re-add it into the pan, before mixing in sauce and the other ingredients of your choice.
But apparently, this is a complete waste of time.
#4 To cut corners, you can attach a strainer to the pan, before tipping the water straight down the sink.

#5 This way, the pasta stays in the same container the whole time - and your spaghetti stays far away from your potentially dirty sink basin.

#6 The cooking hack emerged on social media earlier this week and racked up more than 57,000 likes.

#7 Daibella dropped an earth-shattering knowledge bomb on all of us.
Revealing everything we know about strainers is a lie — we've been using them wrong the entire time.

#8 You can thank Daibella for sharing this revolutionary knowledge, as many people on Twitter already have.

#9 Many admitted their minds had been blown by the kitchen revelation.
Daibella's post really changed the game.

#10 One Twitter user said: "THAT'S HOW YOU'RE SUPPOSE TO DO IT?
"My dumba** has been pouring it into the strainer just to pour it back into the pan after. Wooooooooow."

#11 Of course, there were the disbelievers and naysayers.

#12 But, you know, haters gonna hate.
We're always down for a clever kitchen hack; and if it means we get to shave off a minute of cooking time and eat our pasta sooner, you won't hear any complaints from this end.
