What's your ultimate comfort food?!
What's your ultimate comfort food?
You're miserable. You failed a really big, important test. Or the guy/girl you like starts going out with someone else. Or maybe you're just PMSing. But anyway, now is not a time to bother about counting calories or eating healthily. You need your favourite comfort food, and you need it now. So what do you reach for? A cup of tea with sugar, a pizza, a hamburger-with-the-lot, spaghetti, macaroni and cheese, an entire 200g block of Dairy Milk chocolate? I'd like to know. :)
For those interested, by the way, I tend to grab uncooked pre-made triple-choc cookie dough. Gross, I know, but it's a bit like chocolate fudge with chocolate chips in it.
Answers:
Popcorn with lots of butter. Then there's always chocolate...
soup.
the type of soup depends on why i need comfort food, the season, and the weather.
oh, and a really stiff drink!
Definately chocolate and cheese. Nachos and then a hershey bar for desert:)
Women crave chocolate during that time of the month because we lose seratonin. Some kind of chemical in the body. And it can be found in chocolate.
Chips and dips.
a whole tray of hash brownies, after an hour everything is a comfort food
Hot fruit pie ala mode. Of course I would have eaten roast beef with homemade beef gravy on mashed potatoes before the dessert.
French Fries, fried in animal fat.
Ben and Jerry's "Everything But The...", a cup of wild sweat orange Tazo tea, and a Slim Jim. Yes, all at the same time...so sue me.
If I can't get those, I dip french fries in a chocolate shake. :-)
i go for ice cream or yogurt or any cold desserts! it's usually hot where i live and when i get all miserable or angry i think it's just a big help to eat something sweet and something that could cool you down.
lol, have you tried microwaving choc cake? somebody i know used to do it and loved it!
choclate, anykind of choclate whether it's a Hershey's choclate bar or Hershey's Kiss, Reeses, Kit-Kat, choclate is soothign and eases the stress. Choclate ice cream works too, and warm choclate coco.
Sweetheart, there is no better comfort food on God's Green Earth than Little Debbie Swiss Chocolate Rolls....take your pick, they come with regular or chocolate cream. Moses and his cronies had manna...we got Debbie Cakes.
And wash it down with some Diet Mountain Dew...no, the Debbie Cakes don't defeat the purpose of drinking diet soda...Diet Dew tastes much better than the regular...and besides, there is new medical evidence that drinking diet soda cancels out the calories of impulse snacks. (But you probably knew that already...and, as we all know, if you break the Debbie Cakes in half before you eat them, the calories leak out...same goes for Oreos as well).
Hope whatever has you at the end of your rope works itself out...good night, good luck, and good news tomorrow.
pizza
I go for dips... sounds wierd...but Chips and Salsa are just the food that makes me smile! haha! Also, I love to make the 7 layer Mexican dip and eat it all when I am really down in the dumps! haha! But, ya...great question!
Bread is my comfort food. Sometimes I'll just eat several slices of it plain and other times I'll have it toasted with apple butter, peanut butter, or jelly.
I buy a hearty wheat bread at the store and on weekends I pick up a couple rounds of foccacia bread at the farmers' market. There's nothing like a warm bowl of tomato soup with foccacia bread dipped in it! I always tell myself that I will practice moderation and have the bread last all week, but there is rarely any left on Mondays.
peanut butter m&ms. they'll be the death of me, and im alright with that.
Pasta
Fried Apple Burrito from Taco Villa chased by a Reese's Sonic Blast
Something my mom used to give us, when food was scarce...biscuits & gravy... it doesn't really matter what kind of gravy.. I don't know why but I go for it when things get tough. My wife thinks I'm crazy... but she'll sit down and eat an entire box of Cheeseits..
junk food
anything relatively edible.
Macaroni with LOTS of cheese. Always makes things seem better.
A nice juicy hamburger.
noodles
Choccie biscuits the whole packet with vanilla ice-cream.
Mine is a Big Ham with pineapples cherries all done in the right glaze.Mmmmm. Damn I'm glad I don't get sad that often or I would be as big as a house!
hot cocoa
(please choose as best answer)
Cherry chocolate cake with lots of gooey icing
anything chocolate. especially chocolate cheesecake or any kind of cheesecake
oh cookie dough great to just open and eat with a spoon
chocolate and chips!
I go to my fav all American coffee shop and order a patty melt on rye with swiss cheese and fries or onion rings, and a coffee shake. That's the utimate in comfort.
I get a huge bag of regular potato chips and a container of onion dip and eat them until I can't eat anymore. They are so good and I hardly get to do this! bettyk
