When I'm sick, this is what I eat. When I'm grouchy and grumpy, this is the food I turn to for comfort. It can be homemade, there is no requirement for the magic food to come out of Annie's purple box. But that will do since there is rarely a homemade macaroni and cheese supply when these times of grumpiness and illness come a-knockin. And after a bowl of cheesey goodness, I usually feel a bit better.
So, this process made me wonder. What are the comfort foods of others? Come on internet folks, I know you're out there reading. Pop on over to the comments section, and tell me what your favorite comfort food is. Do you go for the salty like french fries or potato chips? Or do you have more of a sweet tooth, and only dessert will do?
Curious minds want to know....

Bread pudding, strawberry shortcake, creamed spinach...
oh, i definitely recognized that bowl of annie's mac n' cheese! i prefer salty snacks over sweet, so for comfort foods for me its hummous, olives, chips, and tuna casserole.
Thanks to the kind folks who played along!
Anonymous - mmm. Strawberry shortcake... that sounds great.
kickpleat - I differ on the olives and the tuna casserole, but I hear you on the chips and hummus. Creamy hummus, yum!
Maureen - I hear you on the sugary carbs - but they have to be good sugary carbs. Less then stellar is just disappointing...
Anyone else?
CHEESE!
Ningostar - Hi! Thanks for stopping by. Peanut butter - total yum. I've never been an spoon in the jar kinda gal, but I can definitely see the appeal.
M - Yes. Cheese. :)
Thanks for all who posted their comfort foods!
ooohh that looks gorgeous! do you have a recipe for that? I never quite get macaroni and cheese right!
Mel - Actually this was made from a box. Annie's Naturals - its purple (or turquoise if organic). But I do make a lot of homemade mac and cheese (in fact have some slated for Thursday's dinner) so keep coming back and I'll provide you with recipes! :)
