1) Your comfort food - pastina with butter and parmesan cheese and maybe an egg beaten up into it... a little salt and pepper
2) If you were given just one thing to eat every day for dinner forever, what would you pick pasta - never get sick of pasta
3) A favorite food you were almost forced to eat or acquired a taste over time I don't know...maybe mole poblano - the idea of chocolate and chile peppers did not appeal to me. Now I can't get enough of it.
4) One "normal" dish you would never try anything with carrots - i hate carrots

1) Your comfort food - Homemade mac n' cheese (w/lots of cheese!)
2) If you were given just one thing to eat every day for dinner forever, what would you pick big, fresh salad - lots of greens and no iceberg.
3) A favorite food you were almost forced to eat or acquired a taste over time my husband is from the South and I've learned to 'tolerate' collard greens when we are at his family gatherings.
4) One "normal" dish you would never try this is a toss up between Tuna Casserole (what is normal about warm tuna ) and eggs.

1) Your comfort food : tuna casserole (you all are missing out!)
2) If you were given just one thing to eat every day for dinner forever, what would you pick Probably the Olive Garden salad but with dressing on the side (I normally love, but forever is a long time...); and I'd add some diced salami to it since forever is a lonnng time..
3) A favorite food you were almost forced to eat or acquired a taste over time Indian food
4) One "normal" dish you would never try sausage gravy. Looks like baby vomit, smells worse....blarg.

Comfort food: Chicken Noodle Soup - the definition of comfort

Everyday food: Pasta with veggies and fresh parm

Learned to love: Duck Confit. Duck preserved in fat -seriously, you want me to eat it? But you know, it tastes good

Normal food I will never try: Tuna in any form but esp. a tunafish sandwich. Cant handle the smell. DH must brush teeth after eating and before good night kiss.
