Favourite comfort foods/illness foods

At home under the duvet on the sofa, ill and pain 😫Dh texted asking if I wanted anything bringing back later. I’m going for Vimto, potato cakes with butter and macaroni cheese in a tin
What makes you feel better?

Original Ribena, pasta with butter and cheese, toast with honey, red hula hoops.

You can’t get the original versions of rivens and Vimeo though can you? They are all low sugar and taste of chemicals.

Chicken supernoodles and turkey dinosaurs.

Highly illness-dependent.

Cold/ flu (though with the latter I barely eat anything): homemade chicken soup with chicken bits still on the bone, plenty of garlic, some herbs, carrots and those tiny soup noodle things. Peppermint tea.

Gastro-related: usually camomile tea, warm custard, mashed banana, rusks

Mood-related: pasta and cheese. Fennel tea or hot chocolate.

I have a lot of tea 😆

Cream of tomato soup with tinned sweetcorn stirred in, with grated cheddar and ground black pepper on top, accompanied by thick slices of white bread with butter.

Tea and toast. Maybe some chocolate.

Macaroni cheese should not come in a tin.

Tuna jacket potatoes, sandwiches and cake with lots of Earl Grey tea and water.

Apricot jam sandwich or marmite on toast with weak tea, never drink tea unless Ill.

Im ill at the moment and have none of these things! Someone send me emergency lucozade please

Cheesy mash mixed together with tomato ketchup. Or chicken soup if I have a cold. Has to be a clear soup though, I've not touched cream of chicken soup since I threw it all back up over my Dr when he stuck a wooden stick in my mouth when I had tonsillitis.

Ooooh!
Added to shopping list.
I sometimes buy a pint of whole milk and make a dish of rice pud, and as no one else likes it I get to eat it all myself.
They don't know what's good. Fools.

Mine is scrambled eggs, beans and toast.
Beans and scrambled eggs must be mixed together.
Just to add Fanta orange

Crumpets with loads of butter and a bit of marmite

Porridge with raisins and brown sugar

Last time I was ill I was bedridden and couldn't eat anything. When I felt a little better all I craved was a McDonald's crappy burger. I never get them and don't particularly like them usually, but I wolfed it down and it was amazing 😁🤔

When i was a child and ate meat, it was always: Heinz Oxtail Soup with bread and butter, on the sofa in the living room, under my duvet with my pillow and watching TV.

Now it would probably be:

• A sandwich from Pret or Marks.
• Boiled Egg and Soldiers.

Marmite on toast
Cheese on toast
Home made chunky vegetable soup

And all the cups of tea!

Toast and marmite
Fish finger sandwich
Full fat Irn Bru

Clear chicken broth with tiny pieces of carrots and celery, plus star shaped pasta

Cinnamon raisin toast with butter

Pho

Rice pudding, homemade. Bottle of supermalt

Thick Irish soda bread or thick rye bread toasted and buttered with two eggs scrambled and an avocado just cut in half and deseeded, with a little salt and pepper and a little squeeze of lemon juice, plus a cup of green & mint tea. 🌹

Tea & toast
Crumpet with butter
Chicken broth or chicken noodle soup
Porridge

When no longer at death's door...shepherds pie

Get well soon @Itslikeswingsandroundabouts !

But yes, currently have a 2litre bottle of no added sugar Vimto languishing in the fridge.
It ain't the same and won't be getting it again 🫤

Mushroom soup
anything with custard
rice pudding
soft boiled eggs

Jacket potato with lots of butter and cheese
Heinz tomato soup with buttered bread
Heinz chicken and mushroom soup with buttered bread
Well buttered French stick with Cumberland sausages and lots of ketchup

So apparently butter is my comfort food....🤣

These are all things that I eat all the time 😂 apparently I have the palate of an ill child
