What is food that tastes good when you're sick?

I haven't been able to taste anything for the past few days. My mom made some kind of terryaki chicken stir-fry type thing, and it tasted absolutely horrible to me. I love terryaki so I knew that something was definitely wrong. Is there anything that you guys eat when you're sick and everything tastes bad?

I tried some nacho doritos, and they tasted kinda weird too. Even the vegetable soup tasted too tomato-y (I think it's because it was progresso and not campbells). Suggestions?

You know, I'd be really happy with a hangover right about now. This illness has last 4 weeks now, and right as I thought I had fully recovered it came back again. I've gone to 6 periods of school in the past 2 weeks.
 
Don't go for foods with complex tastes since your sickness will mask out a lot of them leaving an "off" flavor. Maybe try a baked potato or toast or maybe peanut butter and jelly.

Hmmm... I never really thought about that. I think that's why I can taste the chicken noodle soup best and the ramen after that. I'm just getting sick of noodles 🙁
 
apple sauce
bananas
rice
oatmeal
those pedia-lyte drinks for little kids really help keep you hydrated.

Get better!
 
Soda Crackers (saltines) and flat sprite/7up
