Comfort foods are foods that combine the pleasure of eating with emotional fulfillment. They are associated with home warmth, childhood memories, and joy. Their characteristics are ease of preparation, rich taste, and saturated ingredients. They often have a dense consistency, intense aromas, and usually use ingredients with warming properties (C. Spence 2017). Comfort food differs depending on culinary traditions and personal tastes. For some, it may be e.g. rosemary, potato pie, or nutmeg, but for others, it's similar to macaroni, pasta, goose, or dessert.
