To me plain old mac salad pasta has always been around here boring elbow macaroni. I use small shells that trap the goodies inside.Yes, that's it.. The brand I found in a chain store here is DaVinci, imported from Italy... The only such product I have run across in my 7 years living in MO..
Its shape is as Cheryl linked to above.. Since, at least the 70's, that shape has been our go-to macaroni shape for mac salad.. I'm not 100% certain but one of the brands I believe I always bought was American Beauty.. I think the shape is more popular in the west..
This may seem silly but, to me, it just isn't mac salad if the shape is not the same..

I only use ditalini pasta for Pasta Fagioli.
