    Eating a dill pickle might help fight the cravings, but ultimately you will do best to train yourself just to have a little taste of something and stop at that. Make sure your calorie goal isn't too low because that makes cravings more likely.

    I agree with fruit as a suitable substitute; I occasionally treat myself to unsweetened dark chocolate (180 cals + antioxidants).

    My sweet cravings usually come at night. I buy the Quest bars, soften them on defrost in microwave, 20-30 seconds, roll it out like pie crust with a rolling pin to the size of a small breakfast plate and bake at 350 for 3-4 minutes. I like thin and crunchy, so I do almost 4 minutes. I also have heard of cutting them into three or four pieces and baking as a cookie. They bake up golden brown and crunchy, and depending on the desired thickness, soft in the middle. Chocolate chip cookie dough :heart: and apple pie have worked best for me baking this way. Coconut and banana nut don't seem to be as flavorful after baking but still very good, but they're definitely a winner when you zap them in the microwave for 15 seconds. Try it; you won't regret it! They have saved me from myself time and time again! Either way, make sure you heat them first or you may not be a fan.
