To put on his pizza, of course!

Not OP, but I often do this with ravioli. I prefer to have more than one type and some of them take longer than others.

Not OP, but if I only have a little bit left of one package, it makes sense to use it up and round out the required amount with a new package, which might not be the same shape or brand (and times vary widely between brands sometimes, too). I mean, I'm probably not throwing elbows and spaghetti in the same pot, but elbows and shells, or two different brands of elbows for some nice mac & cheese? Absolutely.
