    So whats your favorite food..be it when you feel a bit blue or you just want to have a gorge fest?

    My biggest weakness is crisps, but my other favorites are pepsi, galaxy/turkish/fruit n nut and Ive rediscovered the joys of dime bars (now called daim or something...)

    And for properish food its got to be spaggetti hoops on waffles.

    Microwave popcorn with loads of butter (has to be brought to me by someone or it's not as nice!)

    Marks and Spencer crisps.

    Chocolate cake.

    I've been very down over the last few months and have been eating my own weight in comfort food. I'm now about 8 lbs heavier than I should be. Hoping once I get travelling and stop eating such crap (I know it's all my own fault1) the weight will go down.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,103 ✭✭✭misslt


    For normal comfort food (not junk food) I love toast, bacon, beans with cheese melted all over it.

    Yum yum yum.

    I class peanut butter as healthy? Organic ya know? ;) As a veggie i need my extra protein.

    Chocolate goes without saying - especially white choc - not a snob though anything will do.

    Icecream - Ben & Jerrys or Magnums (white or almond :))

    Savory - Big fat Scones with loadsa butter and jam (Keoghs have the most gorgeous ones), Cheese on everything - recently discovered how nice it is melted on noodles. Pizza, chinese and you can't beat a good chipper fish and chips, extra vinegar
