I voted for "it doesn't matter," but IT DOES MATTER. Let me explain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up:

If the mac 'n' cheese is hot and freshly-cooked, it must be a spoon.

If it's cold, leftover mac 'n' cheese, it must be a fork.

On this issue there can be no compromise.

I like using forks because it gives me more control over those little suckers. Getting food onto a utensil maddens me sometimes ._.;

For macaroni?

I've been known to eat EVERYTHING with chopsticks for weeks at a time.  I just found my old collection and will be washing them and putting them back in the drawer with the other eating utensils.

As long as the cheese sauce is decently cheesey/sticky it'd probably be easy enough~ Actually, it can't be too different to udon, really, can it?

(I am assuming that we're talking about macaroni cheese here. Though the last time I read a fic with it in it talked about NOODLES and I got entirely thrown out of the thing going PASTA! PASTAAAAAAAAAAA! ...IS NOODLES AMERICAN FOR PASTA??? XD)

not that I can actually eat it at all anymore. what with the dairy and wheat. So I can't test this. anyone else?

Noodles is a common term, but we call it either noodles or pasta.

And, I'm with you on the dairy allergy... Cheese hates me.

B-but noodles and pasta are, well. Noodles. And pasta. O_O

I mean spaghetti, okay, that one LOOKS a little ambiguous, but! Noodles=/=pasta!

DIVIDED BY A COMMON LANGUAGE YET AGAIN. XD

From what I've ever observed:

"Noodles" usually refers to long, skinny pastas like spaghetti or linguine.  Or your stereotypical "asian noodles".

Shorter ones like macaroni are usually just called "pasta".  Or in macaroni's case, almost always "macaroni".  It's kind of one of those pastas that whitebread Americans can remember its name.
