What is your favorite comfort food when life seems bad?

Feb 27, 2012 11:08 PM

When things are going bad, I do one thing. I buy a big bag of those individual chocolate bars (snickers, twix, etc.) and put them in the freezer.I sit and eat (or suck on lol) frozen chocolate bars for a few hours.
Then, life seems a little better.
What do you eat when the world appears to be against yoi?

I always pick the worst thing for me...... Big Mac's!

Oh! And those Red Velvet Whoopie Pies they sell at Corner Star!

.....Girl Scout Cookies when in season.

And, Easter Egg shaped Reeses PB Eggs. Don't ask why, they just taste better in egg form for some reason?! Almost that comforting time of year again!

While there are several items, Oreos seem to be the best for me!

Raw chocolate chip cookie dough. Yes, I know there are warnings not to eat it raw but I can't help it.

@mtrlgrl: I know of no one who has ever gotten sick from eating raw cookie dough...and my sample population is fairly large.

When the world is conspiring against me, it's pretty much anything chocolate, particularly in ice cream or cookie form. Chocolate bars also work well.

When I'm homesick or miss friends or family, it's a dinner of lamb chops (which are darn hard to find in Texas...too many beef ranchers), steamed broccoli, mashed potatoes and chocolate ice cream for dessert.

When I need to take a break from my life for whatever reason, it's the deepest of deep dish pizza that can be found in the city I'm in.

Cheese, glorious cheese.

Umm ... beer.

Beer can count as food, right?

Mashed potatoes...and they HAVE to be Potato Buds...it's a childhood thing

When the world is against me, I eat regret and drink down a glass of sadness.

Anything with gravy is comfort food. A nice pot roast with corn, mashed potatoes and cornbread is just the perfect meal when I'm in the dumps. Interestingly enough it leads to a different kind of dumps, but at least I'm happy.

Anything that I can dip into ketchup... fries, bierocks, chicken nuggets... yum!

@mommyleah: I agree with the egg shape. There's just something about it. Those, pizza, stroganoff, and ice cream...and if the cookie dough is already made then that'll work too :-)

Chips. I can rip through an entire bag of Doritos when I'm down.

Chicken and dumplings. Warm and comforting.

@gt0163c: I'm thinking they put that warning on the package to cover themselves in case of a lawsuit.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
