Pick Or Pass On These Comfort Foods And We'll Guess Your Favorite Actor

Comfort food is food that provides more than just fuel for our bodies. These are dishes that are close to our hearts, that remind us of better times, and that chase away those bad feelings. They make us feel happy. And they remind us that simple pleasures really are the best!

What qualifies as comfort food varies from individual to individual and will be different depending on what country we are from. Often these foods will be high in calories, containing a large amount of sugar and starch but that isn't always the case. A comfort food to some might be a dish that their mother or grandmother used to make, or it might just be a dish that is super easy to prepare. We all have our own unique list of which comfort foods we enjoy most and it might change over time.

When it comes to comfort food we all have our favorites. Some of us crave sweet treats when the pressure gets too much while others need something more hearty. Today we want our readers to pick or pass on our list of comfort foods and at the end, we'll match everyone with an actor based on their choices!

Question 1

Chocolate:

When it comes to chocolate everyone has their own favorite. Some of us like plain milk chocolate, others prefer white chocolate or even dark chocolate. We might enjoy chocolates with nuts inside or mint, caramel, or fruit and we all enjoy the thrill of opening a box of these sweet treats.

Question 2

Chicken burger:

There's nothing quite like biting into the perfect chicken burger; a crispy bun, juicy tomato slices, fresh lettuce, a little ranch dressing, and a delicious chicken fillet. Served with fries or maybe a salad depending on how we feel. Sounds great right? We're getting hungry just thinking about! Pick or pass on chicken burgers as a comfort food meal:

Question 3

Pizza:

There's are times in our lives when all we want to do is be alone. And there's nothing wrong with that. Sometimes we just need a few hours to ourselves to reset a little and then we are ready to face the world again. And there's nothing like our favorite pizza to help us do this!

Question 4

Mac and cheese:

Comfort food doesn't have to cost a fortune, it doesn't need to take hours to prepare, and it doesn't require a Masterchef to put it together. It's called comfort food because it's easily accessible to almost everyone. Mac and cheese is the perfect example of a dish that nourishes the soul and the tummy at the same time.

Question 5

Steak:

Some folks are a little unprepared when it comes to making steak but by following a few key tips almost anyone can pull it off. There's nothing quite like being able to grill the perfect steak and serving it up with a fresh salad is always sure to impress. Pick or pass on steak:

Question 6

Chips and dip:

We can't think of a better way to chill out after a long, aggravating day than by curling up in bed with our favorite device and just getting lost online. Chatting with friends, scrolling through social media, watching cat videos etc. But we need something to snack on while we do this and potato chips and a dip are always a good option.

Question 7

Cornbread:

Cornbread is usually served alongside meals and is ideal for mopping up yummy sauces. Not only does it taste delicious (and satisfy more than just our hunger) but it's also really quick and simple to make. No list of comfort food would be complete without this soul food favorite. Pick or pass?

It's usually served with either rice or bread and sometimes even with a type of potato salad. Pick or pass on this dish as a comfort food:

Question 9

Twinkie:

We'd love to meet the person who came up with the idea for snack cakes and give them a big hug! There have been many times where having a little treat like this at the end of the day has made the world seem like an infinitely better place. Take it or leave it?

Question 10

Soft drinks:

Okay, so strictly speaking soft drinks aren't food but we do need something to wash down all this comfort food don't we? And, even though they are packed with sugar and not very good for us, there's nothing like an ice-cold soft drink to do just that. Pick or pass?

Question 11

Cheeseburger:

After a long day at the office, the last thing we feel like doing is going home and preparing food right? We just want to be able to relax and unwind, maybe watch some series or play a game. So how about we just grab some cheeseburgers on the way home and call it a night?

Question 13

Potato skins:

So tonight we are making some chips at home and the first step, of course, is washing and peeling all the potatoes. But what should we do with all these potato skins? Throw them away? Put them on the compost heap? No way! Let's chuck them in the fryer and enjoy some yummy potato skins.

Question 14

Chicken pot pie:

When we think of comfort food, we think of dishes that scream home-cooked heartiness. Dishes that we can see ourselves eating with our favorite people, feeling relaxed, happy and content. A well-made chicken pot pie, loaded with juicy chicken pieces, veggies, and gravy, all wrapped in pastry crust fits the ticket perfectly.

Question 15

Hamburger:

Hamburgers are one of the most popular fast-foods in the world and one of the easiest dishes to whip up at home as well. All we need is a good patty, some garnish and relish, and a crispy bun and we can enjoy a good burger in no time at all.

Question 20

S'mores:

When it's time to go camping there's one thing we know for sure: in order for a camping trip to be good, there have to be s'mores! This fireside treat consists of chocolate and marshmallows sandwiched between two crackers and roasted on the fire. Nothing more comforting than one of two (or five or six) of these right?

Question 21

Chicken nuggets:

We know that there are healthier ways to eat chicken than by breaking it into chunks, dipping the pieces in batter and deep-frying them to make chicken nuggets but do we really care? Not always. Sure it's great to follow a good diet but every now and again everyone deserves a few nuggets with their favorite dipping sauce.

Mashed potato:

Question 25

Toast:

We've all had those days where we simply craved toast and although it might sound a little strange there's really nothing wrong with craving something simple. Sure it's nice to have fancy foods but sometimes the simplest cravings, like hot toast and butter, are the most rewarding. Pick or pass on toast:

One of the best things about a grilled cheese sandwich is that it can be made just about anywhere and doesn't require any special equipment - just a method of toasting the bread, which can be done even in a regular toaster or on an open fire. Pick or pass on this classic comfort food:

Question 30

Apple pie:

Apple pie will always be a dish that we associate with home-cooking, although the fast-food varieties have their time and place as well. But nothing can ever quite fill the heart in the same way that a piece of crumbly apple pie with ice-cream can. Pick or pass on this sweet comfort food:

Question 31

Ribs:

The only downside to eating ribs is that it can be a little bit messy but if we are alone (or with other people who are also eating ribs) then it doesn't really matter what we look like when we've finished eating. As long as we enjoyed it, that's the main thing, right?

Question 32

Hot dog:

There's no better way to relax than by spending a little time in the great outdoors. This weekend we've decided to do just that. We're going to turn off all the devices and go for a picnic in the park. And what are we packing in to eat? Hotdogs of course!

Question 33

Licorice:

Not everyone is a fan of licorice and that's okay - everyone likes different things. But those who are fan can never get enough of this morish treat and it's easy to get carried away. Great for snacking on during movies, games, or while reading, we think licorice deserves a spot on our comfort food list.

Question 34

Donuts:

When it comes to dounts everyone has their preference. Homer Simpson seems to prefer the ones with frosting (although he'll never turn another type of donut down), some people like them with chocolate or icing sugar but we can all agree that donuts are just smiles waiting to happen. Pick or pass:

Question 36

Clam chowder:

Soups and chowders can be eaten at any time of the year but the best time to enjoy them is during the colder seasons when we crave the comfort of a warm dish. Clam chowder (a broth made with clams diced potatoes, onions, and celery) is always a top choice!

Question 37

Jell-O:

Jell-O can be used to create a variety of different desserts and it's fun to work with because it comes in so many different colors. Kids love the way it wiggles and there's no reason it can't be enjoyed by grown-ups too - especially when being a grown-up gets tough.

Spaghetti and meatballs:

We've got a date tonight, a guy we met at work is coming over to our place for a dinner and here's the thing: we told him we can cook. It's not a lie but there's really only one thing we are good at and that's spaghetti and meatballs. Let's hope he's a fan.

Question 40

Peanut butter and jelly sandwich:

Question 41

Sliders:

Comfort food is often food that can be eaten easily, preferably in just one hand so we can keep the other free for texting or gaming. Chicken nuggets, fries, and crisps are good examples of what we are talking about here. Another one is sliders; little mini burgers that can be eaten in just one or two bites.

Question 42

Corn dog:

Food that comes on sticks is perfect for nibbling on while we are out and about having a good time and exploring the world.

Question 43

Baked potato:

Tonight it's own turn to cook dinner and while we really are not in the mood to stand in the kitchen we are also craving a little bit of comfort food. So we're going to make something that is quick and satisfying: delicious baked potatoes topped with cheddar cheese, sour cream, and chives.

Question 44

Fried chicken:

Every now and again we like to indulge in a little bit of fast food and guess what? Tonight is the night. We're going to grab a bucket of crispy chicken pieces on the way home and watch our favorite shows until we can't keep our eyes open anymore. Sounds awesome, right?

Question 46

Lasagna:

Everyone should have a signature dish. Something that they can whip up at the drop of hat to impress a date, the boss, or perhaps even the future in-laws. Pasta dishes are among the easiest to perfect and because we know that almost everyone enjoys them, it's hard to go wrong with something like lasagna.

Question 47

Brownies:

Question 49

Ice-cream:

We have a friend who has just split up with her boyfriend and because we know she's going through a rough patch we've invited her over to watch a comedy with us tonight. She said that she will bring dinner and we've gone out and bought a huge tub of her favorite ice-cream. Can't wait to see her face!

Question 50

Marshmallows:

Can a person ever be too old to enjoy marshmallows? We don't think so! In fact, there's nothing quite like munching away on a packet of these sweet treats or roasting them over the fire and enjoying the way they melt away in our mouths. Pick or pass on marshmallows as a comfort food:
