Yes. Other than the superficial physical resemblance to spaghetti (e.g. strands) it is nothing like spaghetti. Tastes like squash (go figure) and is crunchy. To me it would be sort of like cutting an apple into the shape of a chicken nugget. Sure, it looks the part but it's still an apple. Likewise spaghetti squash is okay, it's just not spaghetti. I have, however, sometimes combined a small portion of spaghetti squash with my shiritake noodles because they are a little soft and the squash adds a little bit of crispiness that makes the overall dish a bit more al-dente seeming.
