no see what’s so strange about this shape is it only has one side. because it’s a squashed cylinder.

What would this shape be called if it were pasta?

Calamarata or Anelli
Since it’s the OP image is not a Möbius strip

Whatever that is, it isn’t a Mobius strip. This has two twists.

This is what you get off you cut a Möbius strip along its length. And if you were to cut it again now, you’d get two intertwined rings.

Wait, really? I thought intertwined rings was the first thing you got.
But I haven’t thought about this for a few decades.

Double the twists, half the surface area
