Mac n cheese
A cheese pizza from Little Caesars
My mum's chicken stew. Alternatively my own beef stew.
Nom nom nom nom nom.
Edit: this discussion inspired me to cook beef stew this evening.
I might be 25 going on 26, but... My dad's homemade pizza? Unbeatable.
A snack pack. It is not healthy but damn it is amazing.
Alternatively, a Bunnings Snag on white bread and no onions.
- That looks like a days worth of food but does sound very comforting. Had to look up the wiki page to see what was in it.

  I do love a good Doner.
Chocolate milk and a bag of original flavor Goldfish Crackers take me right back to my childhood.
I'm a simple man; A nicely marbled steak in my cast iron frying pan along with some salt, pepper, olive oil and butter. Served with no sides or sauce of any kind.
Home made Beef stew its thick yummy and the half bottle of red wine I throw in there does wonders for my mood
My father's popcorn. There's really nothing unusual about it, just good ol' popcorn in a pan, seasoned with salt. But it's so good when he makes it.
Alcohol, really
But maybe also anything warmed up. Like a warm cup of hard cider?
- Whiskey may not lift my spirits, exactly, but it makes me not give a shit. I mean, it's in the right direction.
Gumbo
Rice with parmesan cheese
Asian food
Vanilla ice cream
Potato chips/crisps!
Pavlova
Baked potatoes
Lentil bolognese with mashed potatoes.
Ice cream
I should go make more ice cream!
Cinnamon rolls. Fight me everyone else.
Home made tofu soup. It was made by my Chinese babysitter and she was like a mom to me. Even when my dad neglected me, and stopped paying her, she would still serve me a healthy serving of tofu soup.
Ground pork Dried mushrooms Bok choy Onions Chicken stock Black pepper Tofu.
