It's 4am and a huge snack craving just hit me. I just ate a salad with Cheese Fantastico dressing, pickles and pepperoncinis. Sodium is off the charts. WTF. When I was younger I used to eat li hing mui (salty dried plum) by the handfuls. Guess that's where I get my salt cravings from. Hello prehypertension. lol What are your guys' weird and/or strange cravings?

    Cottage cheese. There are these times that I seriously crave cottage cheese and MUST have it. Just plain cottage cheese.

    When I was stupidly only eating 1200 cals a day and would feel hungry later in the evening I would crave ANYTHING anyone else was eating, and it would not go away. For a while it was salsa and corn chips. When I used to live in Toronto I craved Sushi like all of the time.

    Sour gummy candy. But it has to be really, really sour.

    I also sometimes get sushi cravings and pasta with tomato sauce cravings.

    i used to be an absolute sugar addict. Then birth control converted me to loving the salty stuff.

    Vegemite and cheese toast all the way!!

    Sometimes I get the chocolate craving but usually crave something salty.... like claussen pickles, tomato juice or a raw potato with salt sprinkles on it.

    I definitely relate to what you're saying about craving salty stuff! Of course dessert is always good, but I find myself craving salt most of the time as well. Hence why I have to save most of my calories for dinner, because I have a really hard time not going over board on the savory food.

    Butter. But I read that if you cut too much fat out of your diet, you will crave fats...mine just happened to be butter.

    Before going gluten free, I almost always craved bread. Toasted, untoasted, with butter, without butter, however I can ingest it most quickly. My favorite was my grandma's Milk 'N Bread...butter 2 slices of bread and cut into cubes. Put the cubes in a bowl and partially cover with milk. Microwave until warm and eat with a spoon. I know it sounds gross to most, but that's ultimate comfort food for me.

    Crap...now I want bread...

    :grumble:

    Mr. Noodles, beef flavored. I crave those like anything. I haven't eaten a pack in YEARS ... 8-9 years I'd guess. The sodium is insane, but they tasted SO good!!

    Double salted licorice...I haven't had it in ages and now I'll have to run to the candy store and grab some. Luckily they sell in bulk so I can get just a few and avoid (hopefully) the imported chocolate section!
