The fact that “five Chalupas from Taco Bell” didn’t make this list makes me question the science a little. A new survey asked people to name the most comforting “comfort foods.” About 3,000 people voted online. Here are the top ten . . .
- Grilled cheese sandwiches.
- Chocolate.
- Ice cream.
- Pizza. It was #1 in a different survey on comfort foods that came out in 2016.
- French fries.
- Macaroni and cheese.
- Mashed potatoes.
- Cookies. Specifically chocolate chip.
- Fried chicken.
- Donuts.
A few more that didn’t make the top ten are potato chips at #13 . . . chicken soup at 14 . . . pancakes at 19 . . . bacon at 26 . . . meatloaf at 27 . . . chocolate chip cookie DOUGH at 30 . . . popcorn at 33 . . . peanut butter and jelly sandwiches at 35 . . . and hot dogs at 41.
