mac means macaroni
those are shells, not macaroni
that is spaghetti, not macaroni

>> No.14904993

>>14904985
what i was going to say
HOWEVER
it's perfectly acceptable to call it mac and cheese, once you've established with your customers/family what you mean
but i would be upset to order mac and get shells, with absolutely zero indication that's what i was ordering

>>14905003
shells i put an s on the end of to indicate it's plural, and then used 'those' to agree with the plurality
but spaghetti is already implicitly plural, you don't say 'spaghettis'; i suppose you could but that would sound dumb
point being, both dishes contain multiple noodles

i hate shells anyway, one will get inside another and you will have a double shell, and then you bite it and it's hard and not cooked enough, macaroni is far superior

>conchiglie

What about this?

>> No.14905085

>>14905060
guscio would be more generic for "shell"

Coming out of one's shell, the shell of an animal, etc.

conchiglie Is more sea-shell or conch shell.

kek very relatable
or it's just chewier and weirder than the rest
macaroni will always be king

Yup, just saying in italian you wouldn't say you're coming out of your conchiglie. For the expression "you're coming out of your shell".
