To ask you to tell me what to eat right now

[Xuli]

I have an infected tooth extraction socket. The thought of anything vaguely solid makes me terrified.

However, I am also now on that evil, evil metronidazole and feel sick to my stomach.

My stomach wants toast. My mouth wants ice cream.

Wails quietly...

Mashed potato?

Chicken soup?

Hmm, maybe I have a cuppasoup somewhere, that might do it

Mug of warm, not hot, chicken broth and some full fat natural yoghurt.

yogurt

No alcohol whatsoever!

Definitely not Ada, I've had the lecture from the dentist before!

Oh @Xuli I was there last year, I get it!
All wisdom teeth out under GA which ended in infection. Ugh!!
I lived on mashed potato, porridge and soup 😀

I've just had peanut butter porridge, which hit the spot. Hope you feel better soon!

Guylains chocolate

I'm so bored of weetabix!

You need egg-in-a-cup. That will help you feel better.

Hope you perk up soon!

Ooh, egg in a cup?

A chuckie egg would help you ( basically soft boiled egg in a cup with a bit of butter and mushed up) mmmm I am fine, but I want one now lol

OK, I'm boiling an egg now!

Soft boiled egg (or two) scooped into a cup and chopped up, eaten with thin bread and butter.
Did you not have that when you were a poorly child? It's got well known medicinal qualities.

Eat on the other side to your socket though mind.

Chicken congee.
It's a rice porridge and amazingly comforting.

Nope, never had it but it sounds amazing and the egg is going in the pan now, to follow a chicken cuppasoup

I knew MN would have the answer
