Comfort Food= MYTH????

At least that's what a new study says!!!!!   According to researchers at the University of Minnesota who say they found that no food can lift your mood better than another. They also found food isn't any better at changing your mood than just sitting quietly!!! Quote "Negative moods naturally dissipate over time.Individuals may be giving comfort food "credit" for mood effects that would've occurred even in the absence of comfort food."

  Well according to ME...I call bullcrap...I'm NOT sitting "quietly" when I'm in a "mood"...I'm tucking into:

Tuna Mac and Cheese...( multi -tasking with 2 comforting yummies )

Creamed Spinach...( yeah I know-but it REALLY does it for me )

Mashed Turnips and Potatoes...( AGAIN..yeah I know-but they are such a throw back to my childhood it REALLY comforts me ) See definition below...

Comfort food is traditionally eaten food which often provides a nostalgic or sentimental feeling to the person eating it,^[1] frequently with a high carbohydrate level and a simple preparation.^[2] The nostalgic element most comfort food has, may be specific to either the individual or a specific culture.

The hell with surveys!!!!  Tell me what "comfort" food you love.
