Some of the foods you loved in childhood may make you wince now that you know what the words “partially hydrogenated” mean. Other favorites may have been homemade, but the recipes are long gone. Today there’s plenty of bandwidth devoted to
recreating these nostalgic dishes (often without the
unhealthy oils or other
ultra-processed ingredients). Of course, the comfort foods you crave depend a lot on your background, but we’re pretty sure that one bite of our
macaroni and cheese,
devil dog cake,
tuna noodle casserole, or
double-chocolate sandwich cookies will make you feel like a kid again.
