Usually something warm and fluffy like pasta or "vetkoeke", but I also like my sweet comfy go-toes like a chocolate, chips with sweet chili cream cheese and milo :)

My top 5 comfort foods, in no particular order:
- Burgers
- Sinigang pompano (a Filipino soup that uses the pompano fish)
- Sandwiches (specifically a Subway sandwich with herb and cheese bread, turkey, swiss cheese, tomato, lettuce, banana peppers, chipotle sauce, and mayo)
- Chips and dip
- Rice and any type of roll (spring roll, pork rolls, etc.)
Fried plantain is my comfort food. I would literally do anything to get my hands on that right now.

My comfort foods are just a few.
1) Chocolates, obviously who doesn't like them in one form or the other. Maybe you like chewy or cruncy or nutty or the healthier one - dark chocolate.
2) Soups
3) Ice cream
And that's it.

i go with, the first four of your comfort food; they are actually same as mine but the fifth one is not my thing, i would rather go with 'rice and pepper soup'.

Rice...all types, sauced or just plain with lots of butter and salt and pepper. My personal favorite would be Dinty Moore Beef Stew over rice.
