When you've had a really lousy day, which comfort food do you gravitate towards first?

Asked by WillWorkForChocolate (23163points) October 21st, 2010

When I’m sad or angry, I find myself scarfing down a cheeseburger and then a huge piece of chocolate.

What food do you typically desire the most when you have bad days?

chips, chocolate, fries, coffee and then coca cola

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

Some days I go completely crazy and eat a bean burrito from Taco Bell instead of the cheeseburger… but the chocolate is always a part of my comfort diet.

BoBo1946's avatar

I’m not doing real bad at this moment….roast beef sandwich with real (homemade) tomatoes, lettuce, and real mayo….and chips….then, orange sherbet with a little whipped cream!

Hershey’s w/almonds. Dairy Q sundae , hot fudge which is never hot

SuperMouse's avatar

I tend to want to brew up a pot of coffee. I have been going through a LOT of coffee lately!

lucillelucillelucille's avatar

Ice cream or roadkill I swear,I didn’t do it XD

Aster's avatar

@BoBo1946 homemade tomatoes?? You mean home canned or home grown? I thought only God could make tomatoes.

Pied_Pfeffer's avatar

If it’s a really bad day, I’ll order a sun-dried tomato, pesto and goat cheese pizza from a local Italian restaurant and have a beer at the bar while waiting for it. @BoBo1946 It’s from Frank Grisanti’s restaurant, if it was around when you were in Memphis.

BoBo1946's avatar

@Aster loll.. not the ones you buy at the grocery. Grown at home and made by God! now…

BoBo1946's avatar

@Pied_Pfeffer will be there Nov. 2 for pre-op! GOSH, that sounds great…

ucme's avatar

Jelly Babies!! I rip those suckers heads right off :¬)

Aster's avatar

@BoBo1946 are you saying you still have tomatoes growing in your YARD?

Aster's avatar

@Pied_Pfeffer I am dying to try one of those pizzas. Never heard of them.

BoBo1946's avatar

@Aster you got me….but, they are the home grown type…not mine! Mine bit the dust a month ago.

Aster's avatar

^^^^^^^ mine, too . And my peppers. ))-:

AmWiser's avatar

Potatoes…..baked, fried, roasted, mashed….or a good ol’ pizza.

BoBo1946's avatar

@Aster btw, I didn’t kill the cow for the roast beef….bought…loll

Aster's avatar

^^^^^^^^ that’s ok . I wouldn’t have held it against u. (;

crisw's avatar

Really good artisan chocolate, the darker the better. I can then at least tell myself it’s good for me :>D

Michael_Huntington's avatar

Street food.
Gyros, hot dogs, pretzels, churros, it doesn’t matter, it’s all good to me.

BoBo1946's avatar

How about some chololate almond cake!

Aesthetic_Mess's avatar

PB&J sandwich and ice cream

Aster's avatar

Dino Kartsonakis carrot cake. omg From Branson. omg Over $50 by mail.

perg's avatar

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeer… beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer…..... beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer….

Simone_De_Beauvoir's avatar

Chocolate ice cream.

faye's avatar

I would more like some wine if it’s a really bad day!

Blueroses's avatar

I ran all the way from the other side of the forum because I thought I heard someone say “free beer!”
Where is it?

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

Southern Comfort, straight up.

Frenchfry's avatar

Food? I go for a glass of wine.

YoBob's avatar

Scotch!

lemming's avatar

Penguin bars!!

chyna's avatar

Chocolate ice cream with Hershey’s syrup drenched over it.

If I don’t have that, then beer.
@BoBo1946 Snicker’s ice cream bars are to die for!
@Aster Have you tried a hot fudge milkshake from DQ? Much more chocolatier than regular chocolate

BoBo1946's avatar

@YoBob had a group of friends that loved to play dominoes. One of the guys would not drink anything but Dewars ! When it was my time to buy the drinks and supply the food….as we rotated homes, would always buy Lyman his Dewars ! Sure miss that…lot of fun.

BoBo1946's avatar

@chyna I could eat 10 of them right now…but…fat grams galore!

The ice cream is close to the bars….I buy Breyer’s! ummm…think i might have to drive to the grocery this afternoon!

chyna's avatar

I’m off to the store myself. This thread made me hungry!

BoBo1946's avatar

loll….........

Aster's avatar

@BoBo1946 ”@Aster Have you tried a hot fudge milkshake from DQ? Much more chocolatier than regular chocolate.” You know, I never order milkshakes. I like something with whipped cream on the top like a lime chiller from Sonic or sundae. I do not remember when I last had a shake.

chyna's avatar

@Aster I think you meant to direct that to me. I recommend you get one soon. Once you go with hot fudge in a milkshake, you’ll never go back to chocolate.

Cruiser's avatar

Smores…flaming marshmallows always cheer me up!

Aster's avatar

@chyna But,but, I don’t drink milkshakes. I like sundaes! And chillers!

chyna's avatar

@Aster You’ll drink a milkshake and like it! Because I said so. So there.

daytonamisticrip's avatar

I actually do the opposite. I don’t have comfort food and I don’t eat when I’m upset. Unless of course you throw a big juicy steak my way. mmmmm

BoBo1946's avatar

@chyna yeah, she confused me…not hard to do!

downtide's avatar

@daytonamisticrip I’m the same, I’m far more likely not to eat at all when I’m upset. I’m much more likely to make myself a big mug of hot chocolate and add a generous measure of Amaretto.

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

Oh my goodness, you guys made me so hungry; I had to sabotage myself just so I could make a mad dash to the store and throw all kinds of “no-no’s” in my cart!

Kardamom's avatar

Anything with cheese in it or on it. Especially cheese pizza (the big slices from Costco are fabulous!) or bean burritos with cheese from just about any Mexican place. And nachos from Rubios with extra jalapenos and their spicy red sauce.

johlucmoha's avatar

coor’s lite beer

smokeweedeveryday's avatar

Anything sweet :D

filmfann's avatar

Cookie Dough.
Shrimp cocktail.
Vanilla Ice Cream with Hot fudge.

Blueroses's avatar

mmm. now I so want shrimp cocktail.

YARNLADY's avatar

A toasted slice of Russian Rye with butter and strawberry preserves on top.

muppetish's avatar

Ice cream makes me feel a bit better after a lousy day. The richer, the better.

A glass of apple juice would also be much appreciated.

Neizvestnaya's avatar

Something protein delicious like Sushi or a steak.

Blueroses's avatar

@Neizvestnaya nah, nah… carbalicious like beer or mashed potatoes.

aprilsimnel's avatar

Noodles or pasta, preferably covered with some sort of cheese.

Neizvestnaya's avatar

@Blueroses: Make that a baked potato, gently slit and pluffed to hold a plop of butter and sourcreme, a Guiness on the side and we can grub our crankies aways.

Blueroses's avatar

@Neizvestnaya set your oven on 350. I’m on my way over with some Guiness.

jonsblond's avatar

Grilled cheese or french toast. I love me some bread.

GracieT's avatar

@hawaii_jake, peanut butter dipped in chocolate is a food of the gods!

Pachy's avatar

Grilled cheese sandwich with a tomato slice or hot dogs.

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

I’m gravitating toward the rum right now.

Headhurts's avatar

A glass, or bottle, of red wine.

Dutchess_III's avatar

Rum and Diet Coke.
