I doubt greatly that there is anyone alive who does not understand the significance of food. Maybe if such a person is an alien from Mars like @fashtioluwa, then I'd understand but every Earthling knows how important food is to our survival on 👂.
Food is one of the basic necessities of man. We need food to derive energy and nutrients needed for our day to day activities. Unlike herbivores and carnivores that can only sticktoonetype of diet, humans are blessed with a plethora of dishes and delicacies, from one continent to another.
Speaking of delicacies, there are certain foods that we as humans derive utmost pleasure from while eating it. Such foods are known as Comfort Foods. Such foods not only provide warmth and solace but it also provides some sense of emotional satisfaction to the eater.
Personally, my comfort foods are three in number . These foods get me sighing happily with a loud Mmmmmm as I munch on them. I can't resist them as well and I don't stay many days without eating them. That's for sure.
My first comfort food is party jollof rice. My fellow Nigerians can attest to the fact that this food is a keeper. In fact, the aroma of this particular jollof rice can be perceived from two kilometers away from the cooking point and it is best enjoyed hot 🔥. No party is complete without this food, trust me.
My second comfort food is ice cream. I love ice cream and I can go as far as wherever to source for a good cup of ice cream. I should also add that cold-stone is the next best thing after a food processor, hehe. I love the way they prepare their ice cream and the varieties that they offer are always mouth watering.
Whenever I'm feeling down or moody, I never go wrong with a cup of ice cream. I feel like one scoop washes away all the negative emotions that I'm feeling at that moment. Are you feeling blue? Then go grab a cup of ice cream.
The last on my list of comfort foods is 🥁…. fried chicken. Yep, you read that right, fried drumsticks, yay!
I can't narrate enough how much I love eating fried chicken. I usually prefer to eat my fried chicken with some barbecue sauce, especially when I'm ordering but if I am to prepare it at home , then ketchup is what I use for my dip. Sometimes I just go crazy and eat my fried chicken with a big bowl of ice cream. Whichever, the feeling I get is still the same….happy feeling.
The amount of happiness I derive whenever I eat any of those foods I listed above is out of this world. ”Do you have comfort foods?” Share with me below in the comments.
