What is your comfort food?

[53 Huffy A-Ride]

Hey there,
Used to be a chef, love this topic. Sorry for the lengthy reply. There's this really simple dish from Italy that would have originated as one of those common dishes youd see with poor families, as it'd really only feature ingredients that'd be considered "pantry staples." Pasta aglio e olio is a very easy to make dish consisting of spaghetti that is taken from the water just before al dente and finished off in a pan of olive oil (a decent amount of olive oil) that youve lightly sauteed garlic and chili flakes into already. After that, you throw in a little parmesan and some parsley.
The reason its easily my favorite comfort food is not only the fact that you can pop that bitch off as quickly as pasta boils, but it does bring me back to when times were much simpler and i was doing my thing in the kitchen, surrounded by a bunch of other pirates who cared. Things arent like they were, but for about 20 minutes (usually around 2 to 3am) i get to just go back. And that's alright. Thanks for readin.

And ofc Buttered Noodles.

Puppy chow... I would always get it at the gas station on long car drives. The chocolate, peanut butter, and powdered sugar is just a blend of happiness in my mind.

Had that a lot growing up. Still make it every once in a while - it just hits the right spot when you want something sweet and crunchy you can take your time on.

Cereal. Just cereal right from the box. I love cereal. I wish I had some right now.

A food you like to indulge in when you're down. A "happy" food. Something super satisfying/filling to you.

Ah... Nothing, then. Anything related to digestion always makes me feel more suicidal.

What is your favorite kind? If I'm eating dry, its cinnamon toast crunch.

With milk, probably honey smacks.

Hmm why is that?

That sounds amazing!

chicken strips and fries... or garlic cheese bread. Never been one for sweets, really.

 

[ForeverBroken]

Fettuccine Alfredo. Or homemade Mac and cheese. Or basically anything that is pasta. And bread sticks…… now I'm hungry.

 

[Notwinnernotawin]

Alcohol and hamburgers

Right? Italian in general is just comfort.

 

[CrazyDiamond04]

Extremely spicy food. I love when I cry when eating.

 

[higherthanthesun]

Tea and toast with jam :)

I used like to the local gas station to pick up some cookies (macadamia is usually my go-to), cheesy breadsticks, Flipz-brand chocolate pretzels, or just some gummies.

Oatmeal is my current comfort food, though. I crave that stuff like every day.

I don't have a comfort food, but I do have comfort drinks, and they're coffee and earl grey tea (both with milk ofc). I like other kinds of black tea as well, but earl grey is my favorite. I also like matcha lattes. As you can tell, I love caffeine.

Real af, comfort food was pillsburys and sushi back in the US but both of those are out of my range here. I love the beastly energy drinks more than even chocolate now

Orville Redenbacher Simply Salted microwave popcorn with vegan butter and nutritional yeast.

I was able to quit smoking and drinking and several varieties of drugs, but I can't quit you, popcorn...

 

[mikuhappy]

Strawberries

 

[ResilientAF]

Chilli made with Aberdeen Angus ground beef and made into lasagne, with thick cheese sauce made with mature cheddar cheese. Not made in a long, long time though. Scrambled eggs with HP sauce. Takes 5 minutes.

 

[Dliena]

Some nostalgic ones for me are the brown sugar cinnamon pop tarts and little debbies pecan spin wheels.

 

[kawaiiphantom]

seafood and bubble tea =w= mhhhhhhhh

 

[fishlover]

buttered toast with chocolate milk

 

[kotonearisato]

A Hungarian dish called krumplis tészta. It's basically potato pasta, it's been my favorite since I was a kid.

 

[cheems]

Heart of palm. Call me weird. I always loved it. Used to get it on barbecue houses when I went with aunt when I was younger. What an odd kid, all these great meats, and you choose a veggie. I like the slight crunch it has. The distinct slight acidic taste. The funny shape and color. The texture when broken down. I could eat it everyday.

 

[Ruma]

Nachos! With spicy beef,cheese,sour cream and Jalepenos.

 

[yuiyulz]

hard to say for me. food is one of my only comforts in life so it's hard for me to pick one, but i'd probably choose either dim sum or spicy lamb skewers. har gow and boiled chicken feet were my favorite foods in childhood.

 

[SeaBreeze]

If it's anywhere close to meal time, then mac & cheese. If not, almost anything chocolate

 

[byebyemadworld]

Chocolate!
Life sucks, but chocolate helps

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

My favorite foods are Lasagna and Poke. Either of these should be enough to comfort me but other than that sometimes I find myself getting McDonald's just to feel full. Really any junk food should suffice as long as it can succeed at making me as ugly as I feel.

 

[Unhumanly.]

noodles
quick cook, quick eat
