Food · The Guardian
by The Guardian
What do celebrities eat when nobody’s watching? From the snacks they cobble together after a long day to the meals that take them straight back to childhood, food can reveal a lot about a person. Each week on Comfort Eating, celebrity guests share their ultimate comfort food with Siobhán McSweeney, and they chat about the role food has played in their lives. From snacks after school to heartbreak meals, join Siobhán for conversations about food, family and everything in between.

This podcast is one that I listen to as soon as it pops into my feed! I think Grace does a fantastic job with digging deep, but still managing to keep things fun with her interview questions. Highly recommend this to all out there!
I have always loved Grace, but even more so now! I love the personal stories of her guests and it’s so sweet and funny how she interacts with them. Love this podcast! Please please please interview Roison Conaty!!! ❤️❤️
Fell in love with Grace’s writing for the Guardian and the comments of her legion of followers during the pandemic. Like her writing, this podcast interview brought a little bit of everything emotionally! As an American I haven’t experienced fish paste, a bit confused about the yellow Panto mug but when it comes to sharing the good & the bad emotions of life-well no need for translations!Thanks Grace & Russell
