Thread: What do you eat when you're sick?

When I'm sick, I... I really go for the chocolate, pie, or chocolate pie.

I haven't had chicken soup in ages, haha. I guess I try a little more orange juice than usual when I'm sick.

I make something full of fresh vegetables, like homemade soup, and I make it spicy as fuck. Frequent consumption of hot sauce and horseradish always clear me up really fast. Lots of fruit, too. Especially berries.

As I HATE SOUP WITH A BURNING PASSION (and other similar liquidy foods) I find a good toasted chicken sandwich to be delicious when I'm sick. Also, apples.

I like to eat rice when I'm sick. It's a pretty simple food. Whenever we have them, pirogis are also great.

I really don't eat very much when I'm sick, actually. The only things I can stomach are toast and Italian ices, if we have them in the house. And the only thing I can drink is ginger ale; anything else just makes me feel worse.

If I'm sick, usually my go-to food is usually rice or soup based. If you go to an Asian supermarket, look for chazuke. It usually comes in a package of 6 and in each packet is some nori seaweed, little spherical rice crackers, bits of powdered green tea (really!) and bits of whatever flavor your chazuke is (I've had both sour plum and salmon, which are good.) You make it by cooking some plain white rice, putting the contents of the chazuke packet over it, then adding some boiling water.

If it's a sickness bug, usually nothing at all for a few days, then I'll have some toast or something. Basically anything with flavor so it wont be gross to bring back up. If I have a cold, I just eat normally and continuously suck on sweets to soothe the sore throat.
