What Is One Of Your Favorite Comfort Foods When You Are.....  |
|
.......Sick? Feeling like do-do ca-ca poo-poo? For about a week now I just haven't been feeling too keen...uh, to put it mildly. I've been having one of my bouts of bronchitis again...not too severe but still making me feel lousy. My energy level has been zip, can't think, having serious brain fog. As soon as I started feeling lousy and getting that twinge of bronchitis I started taking a bit more of that herb Echinacea, more Vit-C and dosing myself with garlic pills since garlic is a natural antibiotic. I still haven't gone to my docs since I have to practically be at death's door before going to one....LOL....also have that same attitude my great-grandmother had who was a nurse and thought all docs as idiots, never took anything stronger than aspirin in her life, was into natural remedies and lived to be 98
But I have noticed something when I'm sick....now yes, I'm a good cook, love cooking and can make a lot of great homemade soups...and do while I'm sick...but what do I long for and eat a lot of while sick? My favorite comfort food..what is it you ask? Good old Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup---I could eat this by the gallon ...Yes, it's a "processed" canned food, loaded with salt, salt, salt, and yes it has MSG (mono sodium glutamate)..but I love it...this is definitely my comfort food when I'm sick...perhaps memories of my childhood as that's what I would have when I was sick as a kid.
So when you're sick...what is YOUR comfort food? Even if it's something that may not exactly be the healthiest for you like a processed food rather than a homemade one. Do you turn to good old Campbell's soup too? Doesn't have to be the Chicken Noodle kind either, but do you?
Just what is it about that Campbell's Chicken Noodle soup anyway? Mmmm...mmm...good...mmmm..mmmm...good

91. sarahruthbeth22 (10398) | 11 months ago | I don't trust doctors so I wouldn't go to one unless I am sure I am to die. When I am sick, I have not appetite.when I have a cold, the first thing that happens is my throat gets real sore. So the best thing to have is soup.I remember having Chunky soup, chicken noodle.But most of the time I don't eat, I just sip soda.

93. scarlet_woman (8846) | 10 months ago | cream of chicken with garlic,onion and some red pepper added. something about those three spices always makes me feel better. of course with a sore throat,i'd skip the pepper.maybe add a bit of basil instead.

96. purnima175 (374) | 2 months ago | hi there, I been sick many a times in life and i dont like being sick... This is going to sound weird, but when I feel sick, I alwayws want fried potatoes and fried chicken. Seeing as this is not healthy, I haven't had that in years. But boy do I want it when I'm sick. I really wish I had healthy cravings. Although usually, if I have had the throw up kind of flu, I always want oranges.

97. crystallight1l (260) | 2 months ago | I always love a cup of hot chocolate (but not in the summer;) ). Campbell's Chicken Noodle soup is my second option. It's very tasty with enough salt to cure us from viruses, and warming our body, providing a soothing feeling.
Oh, your a good cook.
It's always difficult to cook our own food when we're sick. The healthy choice of food will be garlic soup, but I dislike it.
Although it strengthens our immune system but the smell repels us and the taste tempts us to regurgitate.
I've heard that eating oranges are very useful for recovering from colds and flu,
but some people's sickness have become worse after
eating oranges.
I'm not sure why, does anyone know?
