Once, Cam makes the mistake of mentioning "comfort food" to Jackson. After ten minutes of animated discourse about sociological and psychological implications associated with childhood memories and translating that into understanding other cultures, Cam finds himself backing away, smiling fixedly.
But he knows Jackson's right. For Cam, macaroons evoke warmth and hugs, oddly mixed with the scent of Gramma's hairspray. Why macaroons rather than Mom's fabulous pie? Cam doesn't know; he just accepts it.
He offers macaroons to Sam, once. They don't work for her -- different associations. He's deeply touched when she remembers, though, and brings him macaroons in turn.
