I've never been a big fan of sugary foods but every since I quit drinking I have been craving cakes and candies and all kinds of crap that doesn't fit into a healthy diet. A friend of mine mentioned to me that it's my body reacting to the lack of alcohol so I googled it and found this page which had the simplest explanation ever. Duh. *facepalm* Anyway I thought I would share this for anyone else who is going through the same thing :flowerforyou:
