Four Foods on Friday 108
Poor Val has not been feeling well and was a bit late getting Four Foods on Friday questions up for us to answer. Get well soon Val!
Here are the questions for this past Friday.
1. Are there any drinks you feel help you get better when you’re sick?
Unfortunately I was sick recently and can answer that good ole Gatorade was the only thing I could stand do drink.
2. Are there any foods you feel help you get better when you’re sick? Pancakes
3. Starve a cold, feed a fever. Do you believe this? I am not sure what this means. I am always hungry. Being sick never helps me diet.
4. Who cooks when you’re sick? My husband is usually the one who cooks in our house. He cooks when I am sick.
I have opinions about everything. I do get compensated for some of my opinions. I'd love to hear your opinion on the things I discuss. Please leave me a comment. For more information about my disclosure policy click

You know I sort of feel hungrier when I’m ill too but I don’t think this last time was conducive to keeping nourished when I couldn’t hold much down for the first 2 days lol

From what I know of the old saying of “starving a cold and feeding a fever,” it means you generally don’t want solid food, so you drink plenty of liquids, which is usually what helps bring the fever down. Makes since I think. When I’m sick to my stomach, the only food that has worked is a baked potato. Must be the starch helping to neutralize the sour stomach!

Glad you’re feeling better.
I’ve never heard of pancakes when you’re sick before.
Lucky lady that Lynn cooks!
Thanks for playing.

1. Are there any drinks you feel help you get better when you’re sick?
I like those mix ‘em up hot cold/flu drinks, but I can’t go a day without my diet Coke plus LOL!
2. Are there any foods you feel help you get better when you’re sick? Depends on what type of sick… food poisoning, nothing LOL! Other than that, nothing comes to mind specifically.
3. Starve a cold, feed a fever. Do you believe this? I eat if I’m hungry or not and it doesn’t matter which to me. Even doctor’s will tell you the same thing.
4. Who cooks when you’re sick? You’ve got to be kidding me… Now if THEY are sick… No seriously, I’m sure someone might wait on me should I be that ill. However, recently with an unemployed husband and a college age son, I’ve pretty much stepped back and let them feed themselves. I still make a dinner a few times a week, but for heaven’s sake, they know where it all is… and a little of their own labor’s of love is good for their souls LOL!

I’m like you; I can always eat

I never heard of eating pancakes when you’re sick before either. Are pancakes a comfort food for you maybe? Did your mother fix them for you when you were growing up? I know those types of comfort foods make me feel better.

My mom use to make me have milk toast. Anybody else have to have that? It worked most of the time.

Hi,
My name is Tammy and I work for a PR company looking for bloggers to write a 100 word post about a coupon website. It pays $10 via PayPal and they usually pay within a day or two once it’s posted. If you are interested and would like more information please let me know.
Thank you,
Tammy
