What do you eat when you have the cold or flu?

When you have the cold/flu, do you ever feel too weak to eat anything? Sometimes, the flu or cold does decrease your appetite but sometimes, it increases your appetite. So what are your favourite things to eat when you’re feeling sick? I like:

  • creamy mushroom soup with turkey bacon and a slice of ciabatta bread
  • Korean fire noodles (carbonara) with some turkey bacon
  • fruits such as: apples, oranges, mangos
  • pineapple juice
  • mango smoothies
  • Turkish lamb stew with bread
  • roti/paratha with chicken/lamb curry
  • tuna panini

Same. I love a good old peppermint tea since that helps me sleep.

I’d usually just force myself to eat the foods I’d normally have, with a few exceptions of soup in place of some meals.
