What's your favorite comfort food?

[mykpart]

My dad always got me orange sherbet when I was sick. I always want some when I don't feel good.

[Brucey]

1. Soup is the easy answer.

But I like frozen yogurt, especially peach or raspberry.

[EFF BrandyWine]

2. Oh it has to be hot soup...even in summer!

.

[gkdmaths]

37. agreed.

fresh leek-potato soup, still hot from the stove with really dense bread covered with butter.

i like to put a fresh sorrano pepper into the mix to give it a special little kick.

okay, I know what's for dinner tonight.

[Clete]

3. Anything with chocolate.

Right now, a hot cocoa with whipped cream.

[zekeson]

4. I don't know about food

but I eat a lot of red licorice when I'm down. My favorite comfort food used to be beer, but then someone told me that if didn't contain enough vitamins and minerals and it could explain those nasty headaches and funny looks from people the next day...

[aquaman]

5. Deer Meat,

Deer bacon, Deer steak, Just kidding. I'm a vegetarian so I would say a nice ripe tomato. I know, boring.

fresh baked french bread from the bakery down the street and double fudge brownies with lots of pecans.

[SoCalDem]

11. sliced potatoes, fried crispy..with runny eggs ...

all smashed together... "eggy-taters"

By kids always wanted them when they were sick.. That and hobo eggs :)

[scarlet_owl]

14. What's a "hobo egg"?

I had no idea hoboes were oviviporus (sp?).

[SoCalDem]

17. They are so cute

take a muffin cutter and cut the center out of a piece of bread..

butter and brown both sides in a skillet..

Carefully butter the piece of bread (should look like a picture frame for a roound picture}..and put in the skillet

drop a teensy bit of butter in the center..gently place the egg into the center.. flip it over (don't break the yolk)..

You end up with a piece of round toast and another piece with a fried egg center..


Hobo eggs..:)

[scarlet_owl]

18. ohhhhh. Hobo eggs.

That's a much better name for them. We always called them "framed eggs". Hobo eggs is much cooler!

[demgrrrll]

19. For some unknown reason my family called them Egyptian sandwiches.

I'm sure King Tut in his condo madea stonea was a huge fan.
My comfort food is tomato soup but...I cut up little pieces of Hoffman super sharp cheese and put the cheese in the spoon and then let the soup melt the cheese. mm mm good. I like mashed potatoes, bread, I like waffle house hash browns smothered and scattered.
Gotta skate I have made myself very hungry.

24. Pizza! I love pizza!

Or homemade chicken soup. That takes me back to when I was sick and it always made me feel better.:-)

Tunafish is good, as well. On soft white bread with lots of mayonnaise. Oh, no, my cat overheard! She has shared tuna with me the last two days. She had dental surgery on Tuesday and I have given her the water from the canned tuna because it's something she could consume without chewing!:-)

[Zuni]

25. When I am really sick

I like sherbert.

When things are going bad I like spaghetti.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

29. At this moment..... Waffle House. Scattered, Smothered & Covered.

And if you don't know what I'm talking about, you have not lived and don't know the South!

[SpaceCatMeetsMars]

30. Pasta made with canned tuna, olive oil, garlic, artichoke hearts, capers,

red pepper seeds, sea salt and parmesan cheese. This is not for when you are sick, of course, but it is good to have with some wine if you have had a bad day and want a little something to cheer you up.

[Nailzberg]

32. The All-American Slam from Dennys

While it is true in my case, this answer would make an excellent subtle yet shameless flag-waving answer for a candidate to use when asked his favorite food.

Usually on toast with honey. Like to wash it down with oj then I'm all good!

44. HOW MANY PEOPLE SAID "TOMATO SOUP"?

Damn it must be a childhood memory thing.

Mine is peanut butter sandwiches dipped in cream of tomato soup.

[Rhiannon12866]

45. If you said grilled cheese with a pickle on the side, you'd

have gotten to me!:-)

Tomato soup is one thing, but not tomato rice! Once when I was very small my dad made me lunch, which was quite unusual. He offered me a choice of soups and that's what I picked. It turned out I really hated it, so my dad made me sit there for the rest of the day, staring at that disgusting bowl of congealing soup. That remained a joke between my dad and me for the rest of his life. Thanks for jogging my memory, corarose!:-)

[jus_the_facts]

46. Roast Beef Po-Boy with Gravy from Ray's PeGe....

[Rhiannon12866]

52. No, you're not at all odd. That sounds good to me.

Are you a vegetarian? I am a lapsed one (I still like gravy), but I understand Dennis Kucinich is a vegan. More power to both of you!:D

[nemo137]

53. polenta, 3-day chicken soup, and grapefruit.

[Rhiannon12866]
