what do you eat when sick?

Balfie

So I've been sick for the past week an ain't been eating too well at all, threw up today an didn't even eat, last thing I ate was 2 nights ago an I threw that up yesterday morning.. So what do you do to make yourself feel better? An hopefully not throw up??

Always Chicken Noodle Soup!

Are you not Irish? Toast man! Always toast.

Jesus Wept

Flat 7up, sure tis the only cure.

Aoifey!

Tea and toast. Next comes the soup.

Kiera

This is gonna sound gross but tinned tuna with some salt and pepper and a pint of water. Works every time!

LimeTime

Stuff with loads of starch to dry up the vomit in your tummy!


Oh and my own piss

Toast & Tea

saa

Yeah 7up but so many stores are only stocking the made in the uk stuff might as well be drinking sprite nah man!

Yeah depends on the sickness but usually something salty and carby does the trick!

Eat your own sick. Then vomit.

Repeat until you are sick. Then eat it.

Biggins

Start off with toast.

karl tyrrell

milk milk and more milk

kfallon

Toast with a little bit of butter and then washed down by flat 7Up.....that cures everything in Ireland!

When I feel a bit more up to it some weetabix, that can lead to puking thru your hole tho

Simi

Tayto sour cream & onion ripples.

Jesus NO! I was sick a month ago and had a glass of milk. Guess what came back up? Lumpy cheese!

OutlawPete

Plain yoghurt (organic if possible) with as much fresh squeezed lemon juice in it as you can tolerate. Great for almost any illness.

Green Thai Chicken Curry is great then when you start to pick up.

+1. Except if you have a sore throat, in which case untoasted bread and butter would be softer and easier on the throat.

I've never had flat 7Up but fizzy 7Up is great if you NEED to throw up; any time my stomach is unsettled and I need to throw up to get rid of it, a glass of fizzy 7Up does the job and I feel so much better afterwards. I'd say any fizzy drink would probably do the same, but 7Up is what Irish mammy's rely on so that's what I grew used to!

When I am that sick I tend to eat bread or toast. Then to drink, the best cure I have found for a sick stomach is the classic "flat 7up" or a glass of orange juice (for some vitamins)

Penny sweets and flat 7up always worked for me

If you are properly sick, you can't eat and it's the only thing you can take.

xzanti

+1 on the toast.. My mammy always gave me toast when I was sick as a kid.. and when you've been through the mill, it's the best tea and toast you've ever had..

That's what they give you in hospital after you give birth pure comfort food..

Hahah that was the same with me. When you drink the milk, you feel so much better but an hour later you're throwing up chunks of dairylea! lol

Ostrom

If sick at home - toast, 7up

If sick in hospital - lucozade, rich tea and grapes

Dry crackers

HxGH

Toast spread on toast with a side of toast.

diddlybit

A massive bowl of custard. I'm sure it looks worse than milk though on it's way back out.

A big plate of Man-the-fuck-up. And a pint.

Balfie

just had toast there, I can already feel myself gettin ready to throw it back up tho, can't hold anything down, water, 7up, Feckin nothin.. Its horrible.. tried to go the dub doc an they are fully booked, don't wanna go to the a n e

toast is too heavy, dry crackers is what you need


edit: if you can't hold down water you'll get massively dehydrated then - time for salt water attempts

That's pretty bad, but ya gotta try drink something anyway, water or sugary tea, 7up, something. Dehydration is your enemy. Can't you ring the care-doc?
You don't want to be vomiting for days on end, you get too weak, takes a lot out of ya.

LimeTime

Eat something brown and then it will look like you puked up ****. All very confusing.

Sephiroth_dude

Chicken soup or dry toast is best.

patar

I have a routine Whiskey, raw garlic- chewed, red bull, a bunch of multivitamin tablets, fcukloads of water, lemsip, raw onions and chicken soup... Cured in 12 hours *always*

If you went to hospital that's exactly what you'd get, on a drip. A saline drip to rehydrate ya.

This is true. Maybe get some Dioralyte into you and see how you get on.

Get off the internet and try sleep it off. The more time you spend asleep the less time you're awake puking. Easy
