True story: When the pandemic first hit, we ate waffles every morning for almost 3 weeks. Every morning. Not a planned thing. Just happened. It was lockdown people and comfort food! Waffles were something we did most often when we had company. You know, family, friends staying over for a vacation. Fun toppings. Cheers, you up. Clearly, our #1 go-to comfort food? What’s yours?
A new survey asked people to name foods that can instantly cheer you up. And tacos, bacon, eggs, and waffles ALL made the top five comfort food. Side note: Big fan of #1 too.
1. Tacos. (One in three people said eating them instantly puts them in a better mood – include me in this too)
2. Bacon and eggs.
3. Steak.
4. Fried rice.
5. Waffles or pancakes.
6. Mashed potatoes.
7. Mac-and-cheese.
8. Baked potatoes.
9. Cheeseburgers.
10. French fries. Fried chicken and pizza barely missed the top ten.
(Only 1 in 5 said fresh fruit cheers them up, and just 1 in 7 said the same about vegetables.)
The survey also asked for your go-to food when you’re having a bad day, OR a good day. And for both, the #1 answer was chocolate.
