What is your all-time-favorite comfort food???

Violet_Beauregard · 01-10-2007, 07:18 PM

We all have them.... some of more than one, but what is the the one that absolutely does it for you????

I'd have to say mine is donuts/cinnamon rolls..... give me a great big cinnamon roll with maple icing and I'm down for the count.....

Second.... pasta......

Third.... potato chips and dip

All of the above with an ice-cold can of Coca Cola......

mmmmmmmmm..........................

TheSadeianLinguist · 01-10-2007, 08:15 PM

Comfort meals:

shrimp ramen boiled super soft with a touch of cayenne

Tony's frozen pizza, cooked just so it's warm and the cheese is melty, not browned.

my mom's Thai peanut noodles

ETA: I totally forgot Lipton's fetticini alfredo pasta mix!

Comfort snacks:

kettle chips

cheesecake

And I'll take regular Dr. Pepper for a drink.

Sandie_Zitkus · 01-10-2007, 08:41 PM

spaghetti and meatballs

Mashed potatoes on buttered bread

peanut butter and strawberry jelly on a bagel

PhillyFA · 01-10-2007, 08:47 PM

either pizza or a cheesesteak wit

sweetnnekked · 01-10-2007, 09:09 PM

Ice cream, pepperoni pizza and Fritos.
Separately, not together, although...

SoVerySoft · 01-10-2007, 09:27 PM

Violet, welcome to the boards!

We've had a couple of comfort food threads, but there are new folks to contribute to the topic and it's a good time of year to be thinking about (and eating!) comfort foods.

Here are a couple of links if you want to see the older threads:

What is your ultimate comfort meal?

Fuzzy · 01-10-2007, 10:43 PM

Foodees need all the comfort we can get.

Spaghetti is my all time fav.

jamie · 01-11-2007, 06:12 AM

Usually it is biscuits and gravy, but right now, I would vote for huge buttermilk pancakes, lots of butter, lots of syrup, sausage and eggs over easy.

ashmamma84 · 01-11-2007, 10:48 AM

Hands down - homemade chicken and dumplings.

Sweet Tooth · 01-11-2007, 11:11 AM

Ice cream, hands down.

One summer, after an unexpected and very difficult breakup with a longtime boyfriend, ice cream was the only thing that didn't make me want to throw up.

Alas, I didn't do what most women do and take this as a "positive" and run with it into weight loss and subsequent throwing of my new body into said ex's face. Instead I ended up gaining about 50 lbs. <shrugs> Maybe, with him being an FA, that *was* the fat girl equivalent of an f-you diet.

bigsexy920 · 01-11-2007, 11:14 AM

I would have to say Roasted chicken with all the fixings. I also like fanks and beans... and yes my big comfort "snack" ice cream, cheetos, and grape soda

babyjeep21 · 01-11-2007, 11:26 AM

#1 Homemade Macaroni and Cheese

#2 Pancakes with lots of syrup

#3 Ice Cream

Tracyarts · 01-11-2007, 11:31 AM

Soup. Of any kind. I could have soup every day and not get tired of it.

Tracy

JeanC · 01-11-2007, 11:58 AM

Depends, if I am sick and feeling icky, it is 7up and chicken noodle soup with the little noodles (the soup that comes in the packet). Sometimes when I am feeling really icky, a nice big pepperoni pizza with extra cheese and extra sauce will do it.

If I am feeling just eh, then a bag of nacho cheese doritos and a block of chream cheese will do the trick

Fairia · 01-11-2007, 12:31 PM

It would have to be food/drinks I don't mind having in stock, but not necessarily comfort, but hearing them makes me happy :P.

Chinese food and Coke are those two. Also Entemann's chocolate frosted donuts or Dunkin Donut's chocolate donuts

. Baked Lays are also good to have around.

Violet_Beauregard · 01-11-2007, 03:03 PM

I think anything with gravy will do it for me too. Turkey and gravy over mashed potatos.... ground beef and gravy over mashed potatoes..... with some fresh corn niblets on the side.... OMG.... I'm drooling.....

DeniseW · 01-11-2007, 03:30 PM

chocolate pudding, the kind that you cook on the stove, my mother always made it for us, I think the brand was called My-T-Fine or something like that but I remember her standing by the stove constantly stirring and when I got a little older, she let me do it. Now I nuke it because I'm lazy but it still tastes the same to me......

Tooz · 01-11-2007, 04:00 PM

omg My-T-Fine!

I got a catalogue that had it, but I can't find it on their site now. Here's the site, though:

http://www.vermontcountrystore.com

Santaclear · 01-11-2007, 07:00 PM

Ooooo.......My-T-Fine, yes!

I don't think I've had that in about 35 years.

After a certain year my mom stopped STIRRING all instant stuff, or at least would only stir it partially and would freak if I or my sisters tried to intervene. So things like pudding and instant potatoes would all have bursts of um, dry powder.

(RIP, Mom.)

TallFatSue · 01-11-2007, 07:31 PM

No doubt about it. Lasagna!

The many layers encapsulate life itself: sometimes savory, sometimes saucy, sometimes cheesy, but always chock full of rich fulfillment.

Lordy, yes! Lasagna!

(I'll take manicotti too even tho it doesn't have the layers.)

kerrypop · 01-11-2007, 07:59 PM

yep... lasanga is definitely a winner. Cheese-its are really good too... and things with hot fudge. REAL hot fudge, not chocolate sauce warmed up... fudgey thick hot chocolatey deliciousness. I like hot fudge and whipped cream on pound cake. mmmmmmmmmmmm

supersoup · 01-11-2007, 08:01 PM

all time favorite comfort food is a bowl of mashed potatoes with a well in the middle, and a couple of big ladles of chicken and greens soup over top. mmmmmmmmmm.

KaliCurves · 01-12-2007, 08:33 AM

My Top 3 are:

1. As with a lot of people on here Mash Potatoes, with real butter and cream, Pork Chops & Apple Sauce

2. Potatoe Soup
3. Chicken & Dumplings
