In this context I think it's comfort food because it's kiddy food. Something simple and familiar that reminds you of being younger. In England, children's menus will usually contain basic things like chicken nuggets and fish fingers that aren't (heavily) spiced.
Yes, they have an infantilized culture.
I see you were asking the question in bad faith and you didn't really want an answer.
yeah i was just havin a laff
My and many others' comfort foods have spices. It's really fuckn weird that some people find comfort in bland food for babies
Oh yeah? My comfort food is necking straight paprika
Mine is soy sauce ramen loaded with chipotle, garlic, onion, black pepper, and chili flakes. Throw in some sweet peas and green onion, maybe some fried tofu, fuck yeah.
