Always a side. I've never had (or desire to have) macaroni and cheese as my main dish.

Side dish always.

Even if it's the only thing I make for dinner, I acknowledge it isn't actually the main dish.

Side if small portion and served alone.

Main dish if served with veggies or meat in it, or in a large portion.

When it's from a box with fake cheese, it doesn't qualify as food so it is neither side nor main.

If it is actual mac and cheese, real cheese and real ingredients, then it is a main dish. Of course, I am a pescetarian so my vote probably needs an asterisk.

WHAT???? You can't add browned hamburger and call it a main dish???? But...it says you can....right on the box!!!
(I like Spam too, sliced and dipped in egg, the covered with flour/cornmeal and fried...yummy comfort food !)

I know for some of my students the stuff from the box is their meal. So I vote MAIN.

Mac and Cheese is a side dish regardless of whether is comes from a box or his homemade.

I don't consider macaroni noodles with cheese, vegetables, and meat "Mac and Cheese".
