Stoner Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 Weather's getting cooler and damper, darkness is coming sooner, I don't have to mention where the respective sports teams' seasons are heading. What do you HAVE to have once in a while to make you forget the Sabres and Bills? I have plenty of favorites, as my waistline and pre-diabetic blood sugars can attest. But one thing I crave, and can never say no to, is a giant bowl of white rice -- the instant kind, preferably -- heavily salted and peppered, with three or four big tabs of butter, real butter. You?
inkman Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 Frito-lay jalapeño cheddar dip. I'll polish off a whole can in an hour.
Weave Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 For a meal- It's a toss up between homemade mac-n-cheese and meatloaf with mashed taters and gravy For just plain eatin'- Planters dry roasted peanuts. The big glass jar is a convenient single serving size.
beerme1 Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 Beer. Dont believe the empty calorie hype.
spndnchz Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 da da dah dah dah da duh dah, Tequila!
R_Dudley Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 Just say Cheese please probably was a rat in a past life. Cheddar with beer but also the nasty stanky kind like fresh blue cheese or gorganzola and even the occasional limburger on fresh rye with a nice fat fresh slice of onion. HHHmmmmm

Cheddar with beer but also the nasty stanky kind like fresh blue cheese or gorganzola and even the occasional limburger on fresh rye with a nice fat fresh slice of onion. HHHmmmmm Dude same here. I love cheese. The smellier or stronger the better. I love black diamond five year cheddar and Limburger. Various goudas and buffalo wing cheese us great too. Wash it all down with a German hefeweissen or a Rorhbachs vanilla porter. Glaughhhhhhh...
Ohiofan Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 Chip dip. French onion chip dip with large, rippled potato chips. I only buy it twice a year because I can get really carried away and eat it all myself...and it's terribly unhealthy. and pizza...pizza is a great comfort food. All that melted cheese and spicy pepperoni and fresh vegetable toppings...mmmmmmm PA...I am a rice lover too, and used to only love instant. Please, get yourself a rice cooker (under $20) and buy yourself some Basmati. Amazing. Yes to the salt and pepper and butter! I got hooked and never went back to minute.
TheMatrix31 Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 So many things.... Ice cream, Chex Mix, good beer, Sour Patch Kids, pasta, pizza.... I definitely mask my emotions with food. It's the worst.
beerme1 Posted November 4, 2010 Report Posted November 4, 2010 Chip dip. French onion chip dip with large, rippled potato chips. Ruffles with Hellava Good French Onion. The way to go.
darksabre Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 I also like a box of Tabasco cheeze-its and a twelvie of OV
mrjsbu96 Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Comfort food has so many meanings to me....but if we mean something easy to make for a winter night: Chili Cheese Dip (canned chili, cream cheese and shredded Mex), homeade mac n' cheese, trail mix (featuring almonds, raisins, cashews and m&m's) and crockpot stew (Guinness Beef)
Weave Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Dude same here. I love cheese. The smellier or stronger the better. I love black diamond five year cheddar and Limburger. Various goudas and buffalo wing cheese us great too. Wash it all down with a Flying Bison or Rohrbach's Scotch Ale. Glaughhhhhhh... Fixed for me.
Eleven Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Bourbon. Oh. You meant FOOD, food. A cheeseburger. With bourbon. Or my mother's sauce, over some good pasta.
darksabre Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Fixed for me. I really wish we had FB in roch. Or the home-brews from Pearl St Grill. Love the Streetbrawler.
Eleven Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 I really wish we had FB in roch. Or the home-brews from Pearl St Grill. Love the Streetbrawler. How is it that you don't? Seriously, sometimes, it's like Rochester is in a different freaking country, instead of a 50-minute drive.

Seriously, sometimes, it's like Rochester is in a different freaking country, instead of a 50-minute drive. He had some pretty crappy distributor problems. Now that FB is owned by Matt's (Saranac) hopefully the distribution issue will get settled. He's only started bottling again recently after being closed for awhile while the sale worked through the red tape. I'm in Genesee county and I can't get his stuff either unless I haul myself up to the brewery.
wonderbread Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Grandma's red sauce. Pop's Genny's. Moms in laws Brisket. Pub Mix. (If you don't know what it is find out!)
inkman Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 I'm sitting down right now with a plate of horse radish cheese and water crackers. A little she she fru fru but it's good ######.

Well, comfort yourself in the fact that no true SGM would have horseradish cheese. It would be some legit stuff imported from Copenhagen or Strasbourg or something. The water crackers, well, you'll have to live with yourself on that.
SwampD Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Best. Thread. Ever. I get a sense of pride (as unfounded as it may be) when I read that not only do people like Rye and Limburger w/ a slice of onion, but that they even know what it is. I copied the Bison dip recipe and make my own now, with cayenne pepper. That and a bag of ruffled chips can get me through almost anything. I'm also down with a jar of peanuts. Beer is a given,.. any kind but Bud and Coors light.
beerme1 Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Bourbon. Oh. You meant FOOD, food. A cheeseburger. With bourbon. Or my mother's sauce, over some good pasta. Just curious but does your mom use bourbon in her sauce?
That Aud Smell Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 if we're talking comfort food for a meal at day's end, i am going with the salisbury steak that my girl makes in a crockpot and serves over egg noodles. she prepares enough for the entire family, but i could eat the whole frickin' thing. if we're talking something that you grab out of the fridge/pantry on a craving basis because your reptilian stem is demanding it, then it's doritos, and it ain't even close. even the occasional limburger on fresh rye with a nice fat fresh slice of onion. I get a sense of pride (as unfounded as it may be) when I read that not only do people like Rye and Limburger w/ a slice of onion, but that they even know what it is. i was introduced to this combo a couple of years ago -- holy moses is that something else. it's such a mystery to me how that specific combination (i use pumpernickel and red onion) creates a razor-thin line between "ahhkk, this is disgusting!" and "woah, this is amazing!" one thing i will add: my wife won't even come near me for at least a day after i hit that beer-drinker's delight.
Eleven Posted November 5, 2010 Report Posted November 5, 2010 Just curious but does your mom use bourbon in her sauce? Not yet, but now I'm going to suggest it.
