Can somebody please correct these sentences?

Hello friends!

Question1:
Would "another" be appropriate in the second sentence?
A: Can do you have a store card?
Customer: I had one. But, I lost it! Should I get one / another one from the section?

Question2:
It seems like none of them is/are running?

Question3:
Are the following sentences grammatical? Which looks better? If not, any other way to make it sound better?
The pasta does not taste like the one you had made earlier (referring to the last one that was made)
or
The pasta does not taste like the last one (pasta) you had made

Thanks in advance!

Hello Mr. Micawber,

Thank you very much for the corrections!

In the third one, the person has made the same variety several times ( 20 times). I want to refer to a particular pasta that was made earlier ( 11th time or 14th time). Can you help me frame the sentence without specifying the numerals?

Once again, thank you very much

If you can't use the numerals-- and who could? No one keeps track of the 15th time they made pasta-- then you'll have to use the date, won't you?
