Top Ten Feel Good Foods

28Apr09

Sometimes there are moments in life when you just crave that one thing that can always make you feel better. I have a list of top ten feel good foods that I just get so excited about that I cannot even stand it.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder and that is my philosophy for food. Most of the delicacies on my list are not something I indulge in all the time, therefore when I finally get a taste it is like a little piece of Heaven.

Here it goes
1. Banana Nut Bread: I am not talking about any run-of-the-mill Citgo bread, but the real, warm, homemade banana nut bread. However, not even the taste can compare with the smell.
2. A RaceTrac Slushie: After my freshman and sophomore year of having a RaceTrac gas station right down the road, I discovered it was an essential to have in my life. Any mixture of the flavors tastes so good, especially on a hot summer day.
3. Coldstone Creamery: More specifically the pre-made flavor Chocolate Devotion. A “like-it” size of brownies, chocolate chips and fudge all mixed into a heaping scoop of chocolate ice cream is a cure to anything that happens in your life.
4. A pepperoni pizza and a Ceasar salad from Sbarros, which can be found in almost any local mall.
5. Pizza Hut breadsticks: I am not a huge fan of Pizza Hut pizza or wings, but I will go out of my way to sit down, order a round of ten breadsticks, and not think twice about eating every last crumb.
6. Panera’s broccoli and cheddar soup.
7. Then newest addition to the list is Manny’s Early Bird Special: a perfect size steak with a baked potato, not to mention the endless salad bowl that comes out freezing cold. (I know budget has not been an issue, but you get all of this for under ten dollars.)
8. A cookie cake from Great Amercian Cookies: a holiday does not have to be the only reason to purchase a cookie cake, it is appropriate for any day of the week you please.
9. This one could be a tad bit controversial, but there is not a better meal to wake up to than a Fatboy’s breakfast.
10. Last but not least, McDonald’s french fries. I don’t feel like there is a need for an explanation.

If you ever have a day when you just need that one thing to look forward to or to be excited about, refer back to this list and savor every bite.
