Smoked mozzarella (shredded) is the best sub for curds .. and a big bowl of poutine will cure all of your problems!!!

I am so annoyed that I can't get cheese curds here. Any advice for alternatives?

Cheddar cut into cubes is best though some use mozzarella instead, it doesn't have enough flavour to hold up against the gravy. Depending on where you are most dairy farms sell curds directly even when stores don't sell them.

I know this is like probably offensive to Canadians but sometimes I put cheese sauce or ranch on top it’s actually really good

Or “Cheesy Chips with Gravy” from any good N.English Chippy!

I love poutine but I can't have too much cheese, I am allergic. 😞

Poor you! Maybe with vegan cheese? Or replace the cheese with cooked chicken pieces and peas! In Quebec, it's called Poutine Galvaude and it's the only poutine that doesn't have cheese 😊

Had to google what this is, because it just looks like french fries and ketchup

Marionberries are a blackberry varietal cultivated in Oregon. Delicious in their fresh, raw form the "comfort" arrives when topped with an oatmeal + brown sugar + butter crumble and baked to crispy perfection. (Just say no to the stodgy, gluey cobbler biscuit.) ///// For added delight, scoop some local vanilla ice cream from either Umpqua or Tillamook Creameries. ///// The recipe to accompany the borrowed photo is available at Crumbs Above Gold food blog. https://crumbsabovegold.wordpress.com/2015/08/05/foraged-wild-marionberry-crisp/

My mom grew up in the 60s in a holler in West Virginia. She told me stories about dinner that gave you the pick of fried potatoes, beans, and cornbread OR beans, potatoes, and cornbread. For months on end in the winter when the canned foods and preserved meat ran out.

I only ever knew this as shepherd's pie, but apparently that's only if you use ground lamb, for some folk. My lazy American Midwest recipe: well seasoned ground beef, mixed veggies, brown or pan gravy, mashed potatoes, cheese. With biscuits!

I wish submitters would let us know where their food comes from. I'm going to guess this is from a Scandinavian country.

Zuni Oven Bread

Zuni Oven Bread

this Is Done Delicately. The Bread Is Made Is Large Quantities. Then It Left To Rise For At Least 30 Mins To An Hour. Once Dough Has Risen The Ladies Shape The Bread. Once Made Into Their Unique Shapes They Go Into An Oven That Is Build Outside. Horno Oven...this Oven Takes Time To Build As Well. This Bread Is Often Served Or Made During Religious Ceremonies. It Is Served Best Warm With Butter, On The Side Of Zuni Mutton Stew, Zuni Tamale Paste

The sauce on it makes it sweet and salty, the glutinous rice layer is really chewy and warm :D

There is a fine line between snacks and comfort food, but I do think most Dutchies think of fries with mayo and a frikandel (some sort of fried sausage) with curry, mayo and onions as comfort food.

While not strictly a “Food”… every Aussie kid (big and small) knows that if you get the Milo to Vanilla Ice Cream ratio juuussst right… it might as well be… Plus, you can satisfy some serious emotional eating with just a tin of Milo and a spoon!

BUT WHAT IS MOLOKHIA? The interwebs say it is a stew made from jute mallow leaves (aka nalta jute, tossa jute, Jew's Mallow) and shredded chicken cooked in a lemony broth and served over rice. ——— WANT TO TRY IT YOURSELF? The recipe to accompany the above photo is at https://feelgoodfoodie.net/recipe/molokhia/ ——— Google Lens gets credit for finding this recipe through reverse image search.

The ultimate comfort food for us, Bengalis. Any day, any time. It plays a key role in uplifting the mood instantly. Tastes 'heavenlier' when the meal ends with a majestic bite of 'roshogolla'.

It is the national dish of Barbados. It's my mum's definition of comfort food and as such I grew up eating it despite it not being "regional" it is a staple at West Indian restaurants though many Trinidad restaurants make the cornmeal variant, Jamaican and Bajan restaurants make the banana variant with some alterations based on fish availability here (ie. Salmon or cod instead of flying fish).

This resembles the Yorkshire Pie ‘n’ Pea supper (with plenty of salt and vinegar) - although over the border in Lancashire you have to add pickled red cabbage
