What is your favourite poorly food?

Mashed potato with grated cheese on top melted under the grill until it’s brown.

Home made onion soup with lots of beef stock and garlic or homemade green veg soup with lots of garlic.

If its a gastric problem then Lucozade was my cure all but can't buy it here. Its dry toast to start with then buttered toast.
For any other illness Heinz tomato soup and crackers.

Thick white lightly toasted bread with real butter and soft boiled eggs. Weak tea with just the tiniest drop of milk to wash it down, this from someone who normally drinks strong black coffee by the pint!

A bowl of Rice Krispies, Greek yogurt, a small amount of fruit and plenty of cold milk. Yum as my DGS would say.

Chip butty with butter and loads of vinegar

When I was a child it was Heinz tomato soup with a buttered roll. As an adult it's scrambled eggs on toast.

Mine is scrambled egg on buttered toast.

They mustn't be over-done though.

I remember recovering from tonsillitis years ago and DH made me scrambled eggs, they could have bounced off the plate and across the room.

as a child bread and milk warmed with sprinkling of sugar.

Arrowroot biscuits as a child after upset stomach although haven't seen them for years,progressing to poorly soup chicken/tomato .After giving g birth to my first DS the 2 slices of heavily buttered toast and even now the pleasure remains.

Strangely I crave battered cod and curry sauce from my local chippy.

Otherwise it’s mashed potatoes and parsley sauce and frozen peas.

Chicken soup with a slice of white bread to dip in.

I just rotate those three things around till I feel abit better.

A fish finger sandwich... white bread and lots of butter!

Tinned tomato soup for me too, with grated cheese and soft white bread with lashings of butter. Or a chip butty on white bread, dripping with butter and vinegar.

I don’t really care for chips or white bread if I’m well.

Boiled eggs and soldiers for me, or some home-made soup (I love the sound of Redhead56's onion soup).

Could someone please explain eggs in a cup? What do you do? It's not something that's ever crossed my path ...

As a child it was always bread and milk. Cubes of fresh white bread covered with boiling milk and sprinkled with brown sugar. As an young bride, feeling poorly, that’s what I asked my husband to make for me, He appeared with a tray holding a pint of milk in a bottle and a slice of bread - it didn’t quite hit the spot!

Mine would be a chip butty.....

I'll be a bit different here and say tinned fruit cocktail. It slips down easily and doesn't make you queasy.

The first day or two with covid that was all I ate. Then I moved on to toast with butter and honey.

Mashed potato with added fried onions!

If you don't fancy food, hot Ribena is the go to for me and my kids. When each got Covid, I had to scour the shops for bottles of Ribena (not the cartons).

An egg in a cup is just boiled eggs (done to however you like them), mashed up in a cup with butter and seasoning.

Two soft boiled eggs with bread and butter cut into fingers. My dear mum always gave us that when we were poorly.

As a child, if I was poorly my mum used to soft boil an egg and add squares of soft white white bread and butter. Salt and pepper. Delicious.
Nowadays, it's poached eggs on buttered toast.
