I love ready salted crisps... You can keep your fancy flavours - I'm a simple woman 😂

Cauliflower. With or without cheese, plain boiled or riced and sautéed. I could eat it every day.

Buttered toast with Marmite - yum!

HaHaVeryBunny · 08/01/2020 18:04

Not strictly foods, but we need it to survive so kinda the same.
It's underrated but when you have been doing general living or anything that makes you feel extra thirsty, basically life in general these days.

Chugging down a beautiful fresh clean whole glass(tap or otherwise)of water and saying "ahhh". Yeah, well that feels great Smile

Celery and peanut butter. Dip style

DearTeddyRobinson · 08/01/2020 18:28

Toast and butter 100x

Lllot5 · 08/01/2020 18:31

Jellied eels.

DrKnickerbocker · 08/01/2020 18:32

Chips and gravy
Mashed potatoes and gravy
Ready salted crisps, dipped in beef oxo
Boiled potatoes with sliced mature cheddar on top.

I love carry, salted foods. Had a rubbish day and have had a bowl of mash and gravy for dinner - like a cuddle.

homemadecommunistrussia · 08/01/2020 18:33

Cheese and tomato sandwich, the perfect combo.

Binterested · 08/01/2020 18:34

A cup of tea. I know we rate it but the rest of the world doesn’t get it (well ok maybe India and China do Grin). Tea in America is always an abomination. Ditto France and Italy.

Dark Belgian chocolate covered rice cakes with mashed banana

As an unfortunate gf and sfperson..this hits the sweet spot

Dowser · 08/01/2020 18:37

As a previous normal eater..cheese on toast..

Boireannachlaidir · 08/01/2020 18:37

Toffee.

Salted caramel gets all the glory now.

1forsorrow · 08/01/2020 18:40

I love potatoes, boiled, fried, roast, mashed anyway you can think of. New potatoes dripping in butter is divine, curried potatoes (bombay aloo) better than any meat.

AgeLikeWine · 08/01/2020 18:43

Heinz tinned ravioli on toast. For days when beans on toast is too middle class.

onlyhereforthefood · 08/01/2020 18:44

rich tea biscuits

MerryDeath · 08/01/2020 19:01

plain crackers, nothing on em.
prunes - humble, delicious.

AllideasAndNoAction · 08/01/2020 19:02

Oh yes, prunes and Rich tea biscuits. Good call.

OhNoMyCheds · 08/01/2020 19:02

Digestive biscuits
