The weather's getting colder, the nights are growing longer and the country is sliding further into an economic recession. Clearly, we're all in need of some hardcore epicurean therapy. A delightfully warm and gooey hug to the stomach, comfort food ranks up there with booze and reality television as a panacea for pretty much whatever's ailing your mind, body and soul. Emotional eating is all the rage these days, and we're more than happy to assuage even the darkest of moods with some good, old-fashioned comfort food.
