Have you ever heard of comfort food? It is referred to a food that is familiar that brings some form of comfort, a sense of well being, and satisfaction. It also supplies a welcome respite from the stresses of the outside world and triggers some nostalgic memories. Do you have one and why?

Hi...I was thinking along the lines of foods that you eat to reward yourself for a job well done or to comfort you during stress. For example, my comfort food is chocolates and ice cream. I eat them when I'm stressed out or depressed. But anyway, thanks for responding. :)

Thanks... That's more like it. Sometimes, I also go to KFC and buy a bucket to go then I eat them at home with my family. This usually alleviates some of my stress at work. :)

ice cream and tiramisu cake! i eat that when i'm sad, happy, or whatever mood i feel.. when i'm eating ice cream/ tiramisu cake i feel that i'm relieved from stress, and awarded by the good things that i've done.. when there's ice cream/tiramisu cake, there's always a reason to celebrate!=)

Hi...I also like tiramisu and add to that, leche flan as one of my comfort foods. Anything sweet will help alleviate my spirit when I'm feeling down. I tend to nibble on them bit by bit as I reflect on what happened that made the entire day bad.

Chocolates! I also love eating pizzas more when I feel so stressed. And chocolate or caramel sundaes! But I always eat it even I don't feel stressed. And I also love to eat cheeseburgers!

Oh, that would be pasta with lots and lots of mozarella cheeses. It's really something that could take away the stresses that I encounter everyday. If I'm ultimately depressed, I would nibble a slice of cheese just to make me happy.

Mcdonald's caramel sundae and mcfloat is my kind of comfy food. Having these kind of food would bring back my happy and carefree days as a child, may be it's the childness in my personality that is always wanting the simple joys of being a kid.=D

A hot beef sandwich with steaming mashed potatoes and gravy...that would be my comfort food. But it's not a good thing because I have high blood pressure and high cholestral...but if I am really hungry and want something to really make me feel good that would be what I would get.

Well for me it would be tender bobs in greenhills. The ambiance is very relaxing and the food was great.
