They look like sandwich biscuits but are meringue, not biscuit. They are crunchy like biscuits though. I’ve been thinking about this way too much. Thoughts?

      Macaroni was the most common word for pasta in English too (at least in American English) for a long time after its introduction from Italy.

      That and macaroon/macaron seem to both come from the same Italian source, per Etymonlone, which calls macaroons cakes: https://www.etymonline.com/word/macaroon
