We have a term in our family for food that is comforting to older people, but in light of modern cuisine is just dull/stodgy or horrible. The term is 'war food' because it's usually coverted by people who lived through rationing or WW2 times.
Some good War Food examples are ;
- bread and dripping
- fruitcake
- puddings which involve sago
- picked meats
That is all.

you bastards.
pickled meats.
