I'm from Manchester Mass. so it was lobster lobster and more lobster! Also lots of fish that we caught in the summers clam chowder and roast beef sandwiches. But my mom was pretty healthy we had a lot of chicken and broccoli and rice as well.
You can't escape the taste of the food you had as a child. In times of stress what do you dream about? Your mother's clam chowder. It's security comfort. It brings you home.
