comfort food

Cheese on really thick toast with HP sauce or coffee & walnut cake (or both!)

For me it's broccoli every time. Lightly cooked and tossed in butter.
I can eat a whole head of it to myself.

I remember 'pobs' - always had that when I was sick.
Not slimy though as Mum made all her own bread and with warm milk and honey it always made me feel better.

Bacon sandwich with brown sauce. Lovely.

Ham and chip butties with loads of butter. Heaven on a plate

It would have to be a lovely jam sandwich!!

Delicious granary bread from the bakery spread with lemon curd.
My DS loved a sandwich with two quarters peanut butter and two lemon curd.

Fish fingers, mashed potato and peas or bangers, mash peas and gravy !

Mashed potato, cheese on toast, soup and pasta in any shape or form.

Tesco sourdough (no other comes close) thickly sliced with masses of Lurpak right up to the edges

Good old fashioned steak and kidney pudding made from scratch with plenty of gravy and mash

Oops just had supper. ...now I am hungry again

Marmalade on toast or crumpets and marmalade.

Soft boiled eggs in egg cups with buttered soldiers followed by syrup sponge and custard

We used to call it 'pobs' chicken
I hated it, too slimy. Ugh.

Like Septimia, bread and milk, liberally sprinkled with demerara sugar. This was always the cure for any childhood upset and it still works for me today.

Cheese and onion crisp sandwiches on white bread and butter.

Fresh, thickly sliced white loaf - a bloomer is my favourite - toasted and spread with as much real butter as I can get on it . I might add, this is a very rare treat!

Baked potato with cheese.
Fresh French stick with melting Brie or Camembert.
In fact anything with cheese, think I must have been a mouse in a previous existence.

All home made food. Anything. Everything. Any homemade food when I’m really hungry and especially when I’m ill will make me feel better. I would never ever starve to death while my nose still smells a delicious homemade meal....

Chocolate or cake.

I see you gave in to the temptation, Gonegirl. I do hope you got your mitigating circumstances all sorted out beforehand.

Melted Camembert with a freshly baked baguette to dip. Had it for brunch this morning. Yum!

Another one for macaroni cheese, or steak and kidney pudding (Waitrose), I always have several in the freezer.

Macaroni cheese if I can be bothered, and if not a bacon and mushroom sandwich.

Before I was diagnosed diabetic it was a pork pie , and ,or a sliced Mars bar. These days it is Greek yogurt with berries.
