What's your favorite comfort food?

[ChoralScholar]

<rationalize> While I realize that eating due to stress,etc. is an unhealthy attitude, some foods lend themselves to comforting more than others </rationalize>

I personally like rice with butter, milk, and sugar. As a matter of fact, I'm eating it right now.

1. usually cereal....

I'm a big fan of capt crunch, with berries, and coco kripys'...but for the past 5 months, i have been on a corn flake, bran flake binge....trying to lose weight, cut out sugars...blah, sometimes trying to be healthy, is bad for ya!...:)

[Straight Shooter]

2. Fresh bread, warm from the oven, with a light coating of butter.

Served with a bowl of thick hearty soup, almost any kind will do.

Damn. Now I'm hungry.

12. oh i do love a good meat loaf with a side of mac&cheese or stuffing &

cinnamon apples or fried plantains.

Or, i may just go with a good cup of cafe-au-lait, and a slice of toast with melted swiss cheese on top...

Or, sometimes just a 30cents bag of Cheeto's is just the right COMFORT or tuneup tool my body or emotions need.

[NMMNG]

13. Potato chips--particularly the kettle cooked type

And candy, candy, candy.

[Skittles]

like french fries - something that makes me feel FULL. I know I cannot eat stuff like this every day but sometimes I treat myself. :D

[GumboYaYa]

16. Gumbo...mmmmm. Red Beans and Rice.....Jambalaya......

Crawfish Etoufeee, Chicken and Dumplings, Smothered pork chops with rice and gravy, stewed beef tips, ox tail stew, black-eyed peas and bacon, and corn bread and greens. I love comfort food, there are so many good choices.

[Patiod]

22. Mmmm....gumbo.

There's a newish "soul food" place in Philadelphia - Geechee Girl Rice Cafe which makes amazing gumbo. It's a little on the mild side, but of course they have hot sauce available for those of us who want to customize the hotness.

Local choice: Mushroom cheese steak

Out-of-town choice: biscuits and sausage gravy

Most-frequent-choice: rice with chicken gravy

[GumboYaYa]

23. I can't believe I forgot Biscuits and gravy....

I wasn't thinking breakfast.

[Patiod]

32. You can't get decent biscuits and gravy in Philadelphia

Never had it before almost freezing to death one dawn at the Grand Canyon. I was literally shaking in the booth of the restaurant there, trying to warm up, and they looked like the warmest, heartiest thing on the menu. Have been a fan ever since, but am frequently disappointed by the gravy ("hey, is that little fleck a sausage, or a pepper flake?")

Forget getting them anywhere near home, though!

[MarianJack]

17. Pizza Or Peanut Butter

Whichever is nearer!

[seemunkee]

18. Peanut Butter straight from the jar

[MissMillie]

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

20. Pizza, and lots of it!

[terrya]

21. Meat loaf...I have such pedestrian tastes.

But it is my favorite comfort food. :-)

[DrDan]

24. there is nothing a big ol' plate of poutine cannot correct

or some delicious ludefisk

[Err]

25. Moose Tracks ice cream.

I can't afford to buy any, so my current comfort food is ramen noodles.

[CatBoreal]

26. Porcupines (no, I'm not kidding) and ...

...my grandmother's Ragou au pattes de cochons. I made that the week she died in 90 degree weather, but I didn't care - made me feel closer to her.

[Burma Jones]

27. Bread Pudding

[moriverrat]

28. My favorites

2. Anything spicy and hot.

[anarch]

Actually, I sort of like borscht as a comfort food, too...if it is a really good borscht. But then again, I can never get enough beets. Mmmmmm...beets!

[Bridget Burke]

30. Tex Mex.

Including puffed-up tortillas covered with chile con Velveeta. Refritos cooked in lard with "Spanish Rice." Enchiladas & a dollop of guacamole on the side.

Margaritas optional.

Alas, Leo's has gone out of business...

Happy times.
