What's your go-to comfort food?

A nice crunchy peach.

first of all, all these post like "this" or "underrated" in lieu of some actual response should result in an autoban.
secondly, there's comfort movies or comfort music, why not comfort food? take a christmas dinner that your family prepares every year since you are a little child. how is that not comfy?
and third, i can eat about 3000 kcal a day without gaining fat. i'm athletic and run a few half marathons per year. get on my level, bitches
comfort foods are great, and i enjoy cooking them with my family or my girlfriend

How's life on the spectrum?

Comfort food is just a certain type of food you eat when you want that certain type of food it. Are you implying that emotion has nothing to do with what the choice of food we eat? Comfort food is the same as people wanting to eat a salad or light soup when they want to eat a salad or light soup, just the opposite. It's the same as people want to eat a certain type of food when they watch sports or whatever.

>getting this autistic about food
i'm not sure if you have a healthy relationship with food

I don't think I have any. Also, nobody loves me.

>comfort music
>comfort movies
>my girlfriend

if you're not actually a lipstick lesbian then maybe evaluate & then reevaluate the fact that with only your own words to go by, you sound like a delicate petal,a most special little snowflake to other people.

& the girlfriend bit makes you sound like a lesbian.

I know this is pleb tier compared to real italian but my mom used to make it for me when I was little and it grew on me.

>take a christmas dinner that your family prepares every year since you are a little child. how is that not comfy?
It has an emotional resonance, sure. But thinking about that meal brings to mind a family getting together and celebrating their togetherness by eating a lot of rich food. What you call "comfy" I think of as the sluggish and uncomfortable feeling that comes after eating a too rich meal. That's not a feeling I seek out.

i'm sorry your family sucks, user

Thanks, I will

Rather than saying comfort food like a fat ass, could've said guilty pleasures.

My family rules. We enjoy each others' company, have lots of laughs and the food is always good. I'm just saying that feeling that comes after feasting isn't a feeling I seek out. I see it actually as the downside of these celebrations. Everyone is sitting in a food coma in front of the fire. It's great to all be together, and I wouldn't trade it for anything. But it's the opposite of comfy to me, as large rich meals leave everyone a little uncomfortable after.

What do you even do here if you've such a pragmatic and stoic opinion on food?
I'm sure you'd be more at home in Veeky Forums if it's all about fuel.

Who has guilty food pleasures that doesn't have some kind of eating disorder?

It means foods you know aren't good for you but you just can't help but indulge on every now and then.
Example: for me it's reseese cups. Every month I just buy a whole pack of them and just go into a chocolate coma.

If you truly only eat an unhealthy food very occasionally, you wouldn't feel guilty about it because it won't have a significant negative effect.

well my comfort food is vegetable soup so eat your own ass

pleb, i go for cock

I'm anything but stoic about food. I seek out food experiences based on pleasure. But the kinds of food most folks consider comfort food are usually dull and heavy. Nothing exciting about them. Delicious? Sure. But not the kind of meals I's ever seek out beyond some sort of family celebration. Because there are other more interesting things to eat out there.

think about about like this when ever you have you have this one food item that you never eat once a year with family and friends your mind starts associating this food item with family and friends and good times, than when you have this any other time of the year you remember those good times elicitation a feeling of happiness or great comfort. For most people its turkey.

Best comfort foods:

-Grilled Cheese and tomato soup
-greasy slice of pepperoni pizza
-breakfast burritos
-dumplings
-pho

noodle soup

making some today, usually do it about once a month and just chow down. somethign about the warm, fatty broth and texture of noodles is such a comfort food for me. warms my belly.

None of your suggestions are actual comfort food though, they are just lunchtime snacks.

>noodle soup
Again
see here

>snacks are not food

As far as I am concerned comfort food is one of those stodgy indulgences you settle down with on a cold evening to watch the telly (or whatever).

A watery weeaboo soup does not qualify.

Think of stuff like, hot treacle pudding, chocllate chac, macaroni cheese, cottage pie, a thick soup stuffed with fresh bread, a baked potato smothered in butter and cheese, etc.

>chocllate chac
Chocolate cake

what the fuck about a big bowl of carbs and fatty broth is not a food? how fat are you?

I'm not in the slightest bit fat but I think you (and others) are naming your favourite meme food as opposed the the theme of the thread which is Comfort Food.

>watery
>bone stock is weaboo

yeah, okay, bud. you've never made homemade stock and that's fine, but try to not have an opinion on something you don't understand. it's more fatty than most of the things you named.

>telly

oh you're british.

you should not be on a food board you eel sucking skinflute.

>bone stock is weaboo
Talk about putting words in my mouth?

You are just showing how desperate you are to defend your weak position.

Read what I said here and here

"homemade soup is a meme food"

it sounds like your definition of fatty food is "starches and fat"... which noodle soup is... and basically everything else listed. it's not YOUR comfort food. that's fine. but you don't have to have an autism fit

>"homemade soup is a meme food"
See here >Talk about putting words in my mouth?

that probably sounded cooler in your head, huh?

>a watery weaboo soup does not qualify

your words, out of your fat fingers.

i didn't even say ramen or pho or w/e. could have been talking about chicken noodle, sometimes i do pork with corn, chiles, cilantro, and egg noodles, sometimes i do pho and ramen but the base is the same.. a bone broth...

>are naming your favourite meme food

dude, how stupid are you?

Noodle soup or 'pho' is NOT comfort food.

If you enjoy your weeaboo soups, then good for you but AGAIN you are missing the point of the thread.

...

I think you are right, it is a Bong but I think he is correct. a broth isn't really a comfort food and in Britland they would have tons of cream or butter in their soup

Thank you.

who said anything about weeb soups? In the US, chicken noodle soup is classic comfort-food. Also popular for cold weather, when someone is sick, etc.

>>you are missing the point of the thread.
What point is user missing, exactly? Isn't "comfort food" something that makes you feel comfortable and nostalgic? surely that would vary from person to person based on what their personal tastes are, what they grew up eating at home, what they had fond memories of, etc?

>the world has to play by britbong's culinary tastes

god, help me. literally the worst country to take advice from

>chicken noodle soup is classic comfort-food
Is it really . . .somehow I doubt that.

>Also popular for cold weather, when someone is sick, etc.
I think you are getting confused with a standard chicken soup. I assume you are American so your ignorance is understandable.

buddy,
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comfort_food

what's the first pic on there? what's the first section say?

I spent 18 months in England, it's not as bad as the memes make it to be.

>Grilled Cheese and tomato soup
>greasy slice of pepperoni pizza
>breakfast burritos
Some people take comfort in trash

>Is it really

It's probably the most iconic American "comfort foods". A simple google search will confirm that for you.

>>I think you are getting confused with a standard chicken soup
Americans call that chicken noodle soup. Chicken broth, vegetables, pieces of chicken meat, and noodles. Usually flat, short, egg-based noodles.

Wikipedia??? . . . .I'm not even going to click that.

aight, i'll respect that

how bad is your autistic meltdown buddy? i mean really? wikipedia is cited, not that it matters on opinionative cultural definitions..

>Americans call that chicken noodle soup
No they don't.
Chicken Noodle soup is a Chinese thing, the Chicken soup for colds, etc. is a Jewish thing.

Why? Do you think that because it's sometimes incorrect that it's always incorrect? Are you going to blindly assume it's wrong without even reading it or checking its sources?

'if i just make stuff up, maybe will people leave me alone instead of me admitting i'm wrong or closing four chan dot com'

Wikipedia is terrible, especially when it comes to food related items.

I find it annoying more than anything that instead of understanding what comfort food is, people just post their lunchtime snacks or watery broths (with an exotic name).

I am not skinny but I do lift, I get one cheat meal a week and I am not wasting it on grilled chicken.

Wow this thread gave me an autism overdose.

...

This is why I am also adamantly opposed to comfort beverages. Drink water or don't drink at all. I also think comfort visuals are for the weak. If you emotional preferences guide your need to look at different things, then you must be an unstable individual indeed.

I've always considered "comfort foods"things like a special meal your family would regularly eat that you enjoyed as a kid, or a special recipe your mom made. You enjoy eating them later in life because they remind you of your family/childhood.

>i'm athletic and run a few half marathons per year
Being larger than taller is not something called athletic.
Half-marathons or semi marathons are aprox 20km. Considering "a few" as less than 10 it leads to a max 200km run by year, which is less than a km/day...
So running from your sofa to your car =/= health.

Beer and Pizza
Beer counts as food

That is what it means. The flavor, aroma, appearance and texture of the food evoke memories of a time when we felt at perfect ease, with friends or family as a youth. Ignore that idiot.

I don't think of it as weakness, but it sure as fuck can be an unhealthy form of self-indulgence. There's a big difference between a tea drinker finding a hot cup of tea calming and the depressed fat girl eating a pint of ice cream then hating herself for doing so. To me the idea of eating for comfort is in the latter camp.

That I get. But there are lots of folks out there who engage in comfort eating. They eat foods they find comforting when they're anxious, sad or depressed. So we're using the same word to describe two different things. I'd call the first one nostalgic foods, because they remind you of childhood. But when I think of comfort food I think of some fatty deciding to make up a lasagna because the weather is turning cold outside and 2000 calories of casserole will take the sting out of the short days and coming winter.

>Being larger than taller is not something called athletic
i don't know what you're trying to say with this
but on the running: over spring and summer i run 10km every wednesday and friday, with sunday typically being 16km. that's 140km per month beginning in april and lasting until the end of september. that's easily over 800km, races not included here. the other half of the year, i only run once or twice a week and only 10 km, so that's an average of about 60km per month. so i run way more than 1000km per year. been doing this for five years now. my fastest half marathon (21,1km) was 1h36min13sec. this summer, i did a sunday run of 25km in 2h11min just for fun.
my resting heart rate is just over 40. i'm 5ft7in and weight 150lbs.
i hope all these numbers don't confuse you

>... of comfort food I think of some fatty deciding to make up a lasagna because the weather is turning cold

Idk, that just sounds like you want to have an excuse to ridicule fat people. I mean, if they're fat, they probably aren't waiting for an excuse to overindulge. I don't see how that relates to a normal person occasionaly indulging in a nostalgiac dish.

t. 6'3, 210lbs. Not fat, but not thin either.

I see nothing wrong with enjoying food nostalgia. My issue is that comfort eating is unhealthy, and probably not a thing one ought to romanticize.

>>Veeky Forums

running is terrible for you. Just go for a walk and eat a low fat diet. save vigorous exercise for recreational activities you enjoy.

All those kilometers, yet you hadn't manage to find confidence and self-esteem.

you two keep on hatin', i don't give a fuck

It was watching my sister go from an attractive young woman to a hambeast when she learned how to cook because she liked making "comfy food". There's a reason most people eat this stuff at holidays and family gatherings instead of everyday.

Takeout pizza.
