This was a bad study. Comfort food isn't only about the food, it's about the place and the people. You can't feel good in a lab...no matter how good the soup is!
Agreed... location and people are a HUGE difference to the enjoyment of "food" (any type of food). However a lot of times, comfort food is consumed alone, in front of the TV by people that need to be comforted in one way or another.

A good point, but that can be very comforting, depending on what you're watching ;)
