Mac and cheese appears to just be pasta with a low quality creamy cheese sauce?

What on earth is all the hype about?

Ding ding ding!!

Are you all deprived of good pasta and good creamy cheesy sauces over there??

no so the thing is mac and cheese is a cheap boxed meal thats really popular with middle to low income families. you get the dried macaroni and a packet of powder in a box, and all you have to do is boil/add milk. pretty much everyone here was served it at some point as a kid, it takes like twenty minutes top to make. (boxed/canned meals in general are a really big thing in the US and i always forget that other countries dont have that same stored food culture)

if you go to a nice restaurant and order mac and cheese its actually good because it isnt powdered cheese sauce, but also i dont like cheesy stuff in general so mac and cheese isnt a meal im a huge fan of. also pasta-oriented restaurants (im thinking olive garden but im sure others exist) have other dishes with cheese suace that arent macaroni based, but macaroni is iconic i literally dont even know what else youd eat it with
