I have a very strong belief in life, it's almost religious: comfort food is the best food. Sad? Comfort food. Angry? Oh! Try some comfort food. Just accomplished your biggest goal in life? COMFORT FOOD. See, I told you I was serious. Down below, I will be selecting my top 5 favorite comfort foods...this is going to be hard.
One: Burgers
I recently stopped eating beef, but there is one exception. Ever since elementary school, every time that I'm sick, I will crave a burger from a restaurant called Hole in the Wall. Don't worry, I know how weird this is. I guess it's just habit, but the minute I feel sick I have to get one. They're really good too, and the perfect thing to make you smile when you aren't feeling too well.
Two: Poutine
Again with the weirdness! Jeez, I might have to get checked out by a doctor. Okay, you probably have no clue what I'm talking about. So first of all, as I said before, I don't eat beef but whenever I'm sick I need to eat a specific burger, and second, I have fallen in love with gravy and cheese on top of fries. That's why I need to see a doctor. If you read my post on the best food in Miami, you know that I've already mentioned the poutine from Babe's before. Want to know why? BECAUSE IT'S GOOD. The combination is hard to describe but if you like cheese and gravy then you'll love it (assuming you already like fries).
Three: Ice Cream
Ice cream is an obvious choice but it might be impossible to choose my favorite flavor. Since this is about comfort food, I will have to go with Java Chip ice cream from Häagen-Dazs. The coffee flavor is divine and the chocolate chips have the perfect ratio of crunch to smoothness.
Four: Brownies
Brownies might be the official definition of comfort food. Let me look it up...gosh, dictionary.com has to step up their game, brownies are not in their definition! Well, if I ever own a dictionary that can be the first change I make. Side note! Fudgy brownies are much better comfort food than cakey brownies (just to clarify).
Five: Mashed Potatoes
Okay, now I'm sad. I wish I could keep writing this list forever. Ooooh, you know what would make me feel better? Mashed potatoes! Honestly though, what more could we want in life than creamy potatoes filled with butter? Speaking of delicious, my neighbor Gigi makes the absolute best mashed potatoes on Earth. They are crazy good. If she wanted to she could probably sell them for a thousand bucks a bowl.
Thank you so much for reading, I'm sorry if I made you really hungry. I'm off to go get some ice cream, have a great day and don't forget to subscribe!
