Mac and Cheese
I’ve just ordered Mac and Cheese in the BA First lounge. It doesn’t look like macaroni to me. It’s more penne:
Isn’t macaroni tubular / elbow shaped and square ended?
I stand to be corrected.

Definitely Penne.
These are Maccheroni (rigati):
However, I think a lot of people doesn't know how to identify all the various kind of pasta. And since Mac & Cheese has basically nothing to do with Italian food/recipes, I don't think the wrong kind of pasta is a big deal after all

Squirt the ingredients through one mold and one has penne and through another and one has macaroni. Cooks the same and tastes the same.
Need to focus on the more important things in life such as the thread count in the hot towels and the stock used for paper boarding passes.

Something needs to be done. It resembles a zoo most of the time with barely anywhere quiet or secluded to relax or work before a flight. Either they need a bigger lounge or they need to raise the TP threshold.
