    Do you mean junk foods or foods that you like a lot? Since broccoli is in there, I'm guessing foods we like.

    Edamame
    Tuna
    Potato
    Berries
    Peas
    Granola
    Bread, bread and more bread

    I'm not sure what you mean by happy foods, but I'm going to go with comfort foods. For me, soup would be my number one comfort/happy food. I don't really have a favorite but it would definitely be some type of homemade vegetable soup.

    Other comfort/happy foods for me:
    - apple pie with vanilla ice cream
    - chili or beans with cornbread
    - spaghetti w meatballs
    - broccoli casserole

    This is the best thread!

    For me, happy foods are burritos, warm bread, falafel shawarma with potatoes and garlic sauce, and Thai green curry.

    (Hmm, can you tell I like carbs? :) )

    Meatloaf. Not sure why, I never had it before I became an adult but meatloaf is definitely a comfort food for me and makes me happy.

    Also cake makes me pretty happy.
