Your favorite, secret (not for long), comfort food!

[Scott6373]

I got into this discussion at the office, and found the responses to be as varied as they could be!  I thought it would be fun to reveal our secret food fetishes (keep it clean folks )

Mine is macaroni and cheese with hotdogs...OK...not so secret (but oh so bad for you).

My secret, and far deadlier desert is deep fried Oreo cookies...OMG...glass of cold milk and thee, and I could turn.

A table full of sliced French bread with Brie!

  Yummie!!!!

I love tuna or chicken casseroles, spaghetti with meat sauce and cheese, cheese enchiladas, mashed potatoes (preferably with gravy), lasagna--basically anything that's starchy.

I have always had a very pronounced sweet tooth which has really put the pounds on me in my middle years--pastries and pies, cake and cookies, anything with chocolate.

How I can relate to that Scott  .

My current fetish are malt candies. Gawd, I love the flavor and cracking them with my teeth.

hmm...

chocolate.... anything chocolate.

cold rice pudding
mushy peas
deep fried pizza supper
chips and mayo.
stawberries and cream.
crisp salad with a really great dressing.
french bread and brie is great but any nice cheese will do (epoisses is great!)

I no dount will come up wth more.

Macarini chesse is also fab.

Celery and/or carrots

Wow, David, I've never heard anybody say they consider celery a comfort food! I'm impressed. For me carrots and celery are Diet Torture Foods.

Other than that, I like most of the foods people have mentioned. Chrissi, I've never heard of "malt candies." Do they have them here? Would I like them about as much as you like marshmallows? 

Kelda, are "mushy peas" a particular dish, like "mashed potatoes," or are they just peas that happen to be mushy? And is deep-fried pizza supper just what it sounds like? Pizza that's been deep-fried??

My favorite comfort food is probably garlic mashed potatoes. But I like potatoes in almost any form. Also, bread, pie, ice cream, in fact most desserts, pizza, pasta, anything with melted cheese ...

As far as I'm concerned, the five food groups are: fat, sugar, starch, alcohol, chocolate.

I love eating popcorn when I feel nervous or stressed out.
