Homemade pinto beans and cornbread
Chicken and Dressing
Boiled chicken - don't knock it if you haven't tried it
Kraft Mac and cheese in the blue box
Home-snapped green beans and ham hocks.
These are the things my family cooks when 1) something special is happening, 2) something bad has happened, 3) the family is together.

As someone who has had lots of ear nose and throat problems, I was informed by more than one doctor to cut back on dairy because, to put it bluntly, it makes many people phlegm up. Added to that list is chocolate, coffee, and sodas. I found spicy food without dairy, particularly Asian foods, work wonderfully for that decongestant effect. My favorites are Thai, Korean, and Vietnamese. Spicy noddles in broth (Pho) is a wonder food.
Back on topic...
Mac and Cheese (Kraft!)
mashed potatoes
stuffing
swedish meatballs

My best friend does phlegm up when she eats a lot of dairy. But so far that has not happened to me- and I am prone to E-N-T problems. I did feel some relief yesterday- though not as much as the Caramel Apple Spice brings.

Pizza - It's one of my favorite food and usually even bad pizza is still okay
Kraft Mac and Cheese - I always used to make it with my mom
Rice Krispies - It's been my favorite cereal since childhood
Coffee - I'm Cuban so I've practically been drinking coffee since birth

stress food: potato chips and onion dip. friends know if this is out something has gone really haywire.
my dad's eggs/salsa/bacon/potatoes he used to cook (he's deceased) at just after dawn in the national (state?) park near Yucca Valley (above Palm Springs). Everyone in the house had to get up and go when he was cooking, including visiting kids home from college at break with their friends who had only made it home from partying a few hours earlier. He'd stand at the edge of the hallway yelling "fever in the swamp" to kick off things, other than being a Wva country boy, why, I don't know. Breakfast was seved with champagne/strawberrires in paper cups.
Coffee: Starbucks, with almond syrup and whole milk, anytime.
Onion bagels/light veggie cream cheese. I drove across the country a few years back and was dismayed when found towns with doughnuts only.

Pizza and fries.
When I want comfort, I'm too lazy to make homemade things.

Agreed! If it have to be cooked it requires granny's touch!

Ditto but without the cayenne. Nothing says comfort like homemade mac and cheese. But, my ultimate comfort food is a bowl Campbell's Tomato Soup and a grilled cheese sandwich with Ritz crackers.

In my family, if it isn't spicy, it isn't food. "Spicy" means black pepper at a minimum. My mom makes her mac 'n' cheese with just enough cayenne that you get a little "kick" without scorching your tongue. Her Indian curries, however...!!! Let's just say she has a heavy hand with the chili powder. 
On the other hand, my mother-in-law hates any flavoring of any kind. She says, "If it has any flavor at all, spit it out, it's bad for you."
