"Comfort Food"

[Limbought]

When you're not feeling too good, or have a case of the blues, what food cheers you up?

[GOPisEvil]

1. Macaroni and cheese.

Preferably homemade, but in a pinch, Annie's Organic instant will do.

[VelmaD]

14. We were separated at birth

and this is more evidence. When I'm not feeling well what I really want is my momma's homemade mac and cheese. None of that crap out of a box. Real cheese. And milk. Cooked on the stove. Made with pasts shaped like Texas even. (Ok that last part isn't a necessity but it makes really fun mac and cheese.)

[Kathy in Cambridge]

18. Mac & Cheese-with lots o'cheese

:P

[mac56]

35. Me too.

"I'd like to be buried up to my knees
In my mother's macaroni and cheese."

[Pithlet]

48. Another one here for mac and cheese.

I could use some today. There's been a lot of depressing news today.

[blondeatlast]

2. My mom's vegetable beef soup.

[Djinn]

4. white bread

peanut butter sandwiches and milk

or white bread chip (fries) sandwiches

[Limbought]

25. There is nothing like "MOM'S" homemade!

My Mom makes great soups, too. Her Turkey Vegetable with Rice or Noodles or Split Pea are my favorites.

[Lostmessage]

3. I have the blues right now

I had a meatloaf TV dinner as comfort food.

[GOPisEvil]

5. Meatloaf is good too.

Combined with the aforementioned mac and cheese, it's a real winner.

[terrya]

11. I'll second meat loaf...

But with mashed potatoes and peas! :-)

[MissMillie]

37. Mashed potatoes are ok

but scalloped potatoes..... now that's comfort food.

[DuctapeFatwa]

6. Chicken korma with jalapenos

and a chocolate malt

[Limbought]

7. Cambell's Tomato Soup & a Grilled Cheese Sandwich for me.

Of course, they taste even better if someone else makes them for you.

[nostamj]

10. and you have to dunk the sandwich

in the soup!

on edit: a stupid typo, duh

[BarbaRosa]

[Limbought]

9. Corn Bread and pinto beans with onions

Gassy but comfort food.

[Nlighten1]

31. mmmmm

throw on some collard greens too.

[Lostmessage]

40. Green Onions

You have to mix them all in and then put the greens on the side with a little bit of vinegar.

[Lostmessage]

46. Buttermilk?

I can't eat jiffy mix cornbread without buttermilk.

[smirkymonkey]

15. Thick Slabs of Toast with Butter!

Preferably from a loaf of Crusty Italian or French Bread. Real Butter is a must. Even the smell is comforting!

Also, Mashed Potatos, Mac & Cheese, Grilled Cheese w/ Tomato, Chicken Soup (homemade), Spaghetti w/ Meatballs, Meatloaf, Cake w/ Ice Cream...the list goes on.

[supernova]

16. French Fries

I have several comfort foods. Any of which will do:

French Fries. Several times when I've been really ill (in the hospital ill) I've craved, CRAVED French Fries with great big gobs of Ketsup.

- French Onion Soup with lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of onions and cheese on top.

- Potatoes au gratin. With real cream, butter and cheese.

- Homemade Bread and rolls. My family makes the best yeast bread. Lighter than air and cooked til golden. Perfect for stuffing with fresh ham; or mopping up homemade strawberry jelly and butter. :9 We also make what we used to call "pinapple pizzas". Take a small dough ball and stretch it out to make a small pizza crust (about 6 - 7 inches) When that is set, fill with a mixture of crushed pinapple and cornstarch. Bake until golden. :9

- Cornbread. :9 Nothing like cornbread fresh from the oven. For dessert cover with butter and honey or jelly. :9 :9

- Chocolate of ANY kind. I love the euphoria. :D

*Sigh* Since I'm an Atkins devotee now, it's been over a year since I had any of those treats. Oh well. I'm hoping I'll get more sex now that I'm thin. }(

[Limbought]

21. Shit, now I'm hungry!

[DoNotRefill]

23. My homemade lasagne....

and bratwurst and sauerkraut cooked in beer.

Not at the same time, of course....

[alwynsw]

24. Limburger with raw onion on pumpernickel.

I get a great deal of "alone time" with it, but I like it anyway.

"It's such a happy place....."

(I forget the rest of the jingle.)

[Kamika]

55. oh yah.. sorry

*chills down*

I always liked Mc Donalds because for me it was something magical since my parents didn't allow me to eat there or any other burgers etc for that matter until I was 10 or so..

Oh, wait, you meant for eating? I thought you just meant comfort. :o

[geniph]

56. I generally don't want to eat when I don't feel good

especially lately with this damn dysentery or whatever it is that I have. Oh well, on the bright side, I've lost seven pounds. All water, but what the hell.
