Yesterday exercise, today diet, what gives, Daily Prompt?

That said, I find this question interesting because of the “types of”. I think without it many of us would be inclined to go “eh, chocolate? Pizza? Chips?”

But “types of” suggests a connection and thinking about the foods I like – olives, halloumi, pickles, Indian food, tart apples – I find I like food that could be characterised as tangy, salty, rich, spicy. I like chilli chocolate. I like olives on pizza. I like spice on chips, both the American and British variety.

I also like a big hot bowl of comfort food – a jacket potato with butter and cheese, mushroom risotto, my husband’s paneer biryani. You know the kind, hot food dense with carbs. Mmmm carbs. Even my spicy tomato and lentil soup is best with a big chunk of fresh bread.
