I'm sure my doctor would "strongly suggest" that I stay away too!

Of course not! He was laughing inside because you just paid for their meal!My doctor told me to stay away. When we left the office he beat us there and had his kid with him. For some reason he did not look guilty!

Although I was born in California, I grew up overseas in Ghana, Thailand, and El Salvador. As an adult, I have also worked in Saudi Arabia and Beirut, Lebanon.
My comfort foods tend to be somewhat eclectic.
In Ghana I developed an appreciation for grilled yams. In Thailand I bought deep fried bananas from street vendors while walking home from school. Our cook made Pad-Thai and on the weekends, we feasted on dim sum at a local Chinese restaurant. In El Salvador I encountered paella and real refried beans (which are unaccountably neither refried or even fried here in the U.S). In the Middle East I discovered pita bread with hummus, baklava, and schwarmas.
I also remember my mother's cooking. Since my mother didn't know how to cook, she used convenience foods like canned ravioli or Kraft instant Mac and Cheese. On cold rainy days, I sometimes find myself craving these foods.
What are your comfort foods?
Heinz Cream of Tomato soup. I remember it from my childhood.
Bangers and mash.
grilled cheese.
Shrimp and pasta from Maggiano's.
Philly cheese omelette from our local diner.
The spicy sausage and potato soup from Olive Garden.
