What do you eat when you’re poorly?

[Maximoose]

I’ve caught a horrendous stomach bug off my baby and haven’t eaten since yesterday morning. I can’t face any food at all and when I have tried I’ve just bought it back up. I’m breastfeeding though so know I need some calories.

Any miracle meals you swear by? I don’t have any food restrictions, although dairy is seeming really unappealing right now!

ritz crackers
digestive biscuits
toast (with just honey if I can’t stomach butter)
breakfast biscuits (go ahead, belvita etc, dry ones)
baked ready salted crisps
plain rice cakes

once I’m feeling a bit better, a vegetable or minestrone soup for some actual nutrients

hope you feel better soon OP!

Heinz tomato soup & toast.
Homemade chicken soup.
A hot curry then a hot bath then bed.

Digestive biscuits, got to be McVities.

Agree with the flat lemonade

Diet Coke
Salt and vinegar crisps
Toast with marmite
Pasta with marmite

Farleys rusks. Love them!

Digestive biscuits. Slice of bread with ham filling, Jacobs cream crackers. A jug of water to hand

Tea and toast
Plain crisps
Tinned tuna (in brine for the salt) and rice

I'm curious, how does

Slice of bread with ham filling

differ from a ham sandwich?

Chips and mayonaise in a bowl with plenty of salt, in bed when I am feeling better.

Chicken noodle soup, toast

I like rice cakes when my stomach is feeling rough.

Bananas, dry toast, homemade soup for me. Def nothing fatty or dairy foods

Toast, plain popcorn

Tomato soup

Another vote for toast and marmite.

Toast, ritz crackers, tomato or chicken soup.

progressing to beans or scrambled eggs on toast. Though as DH ruins scrambled eggs, I have to feel significantly better to have those. I miss living with my parents acutely at that moment every time

Miso soup
Tinned tomato soup
Plain crisps
Scrambled eggs and dry toast
Any type of dry cracker
Fruit jelly, preferably made with tinned mandarin oranges
Creme caramel
Ginger biscuits and ginger tea

Tinned tomato soup and cheap white bread

I have been ill all week and I have been eating tomato soup, bananas,toast, and schnitzel

I don't eat I just drink coca cola, one of the very few things I enjoy puking up

Toast and tomato soup. Or salty crisps, but the baked kind so they're not oily. Rich tea biscuits.

Freshly cooked rice is the gentlest, least likely to cause more upset thing to eat that's filling.

Also cereal without milk
Chips with salt and vinegar
Ginger beer
White bread with Nutella
Ring donuts or yum yums
Skips
Prawn crackers
Crisp sandwich or fish finger sandwich
Hot dogs

Ooooooh yes to tinned tomato soup and white bread when you're starting to feel better.
