I crave any hard cheese, especially Parmesan, Romano, very very sharp cheddars and Swiss.
Nuts, all types.
Olives.
Chickpeas and Kidney beans. I will eat them out of a can.
Fake meat products such as Seitan.
Seasoned tofu; Baked till crunchy outside and creamy inside.
Did I mention cheese.
I like chips but Kale chips are a good substitute, and I'm good at avoiding chips and crackers. I LOVE them but give me a cracker or a nut and I'll have the nut.
I have always been the type that ice cream and cookies can sit in my freezer for a year.

Anything sweet! Soda, cookies, cake (especially cake with buttercream frosting!!), brownies, chocolates, candy, muffins0
-
Mostly umami flavors like stews, mushrooms, tomatoes, nuts/seeds, especially salted and smoked, in addition to
all kinds of dairy products, but especially hard cheeses and cultured dairy products.
I love chocolate and ice cream and all kinds of sweet stuff, but they're secondary to the stuff above and I don't tend to have them daily like, say, tomatoes or dairy.1 -
I forgot tomatoes0
-
-
Mostly carbs but occasionally I'll crave red meat very rare0
-
pizza and alcohol lol3
-
Pasta, pizza, burgers/french fries, and all the desserts. So, when I crave them, I fit them in. Looking forward to my Reese's egg for dessert tonight.

Cake - I second the love for buttercream icing. You can keep that whipped stuff. But mostly, I feel like I crave salt. Not really a particular food, but salt in general. Usually satisfied by pretzel sticks or saltine crackers.2

ALL the sugar! Chocolate, bread, pastries, ice cream. Mostly sweets, but I do crave salty chips/pretzels/fries on occasion.livingleanlivingclean wrote: »
I've actually eaten brown sugar straight from the bag. And I also crave food based on its consistency at times, too. Crunchy, smooth, creamy, depending on my mood.2 -
Cheese in general. Especially goat, gouda and brie. I just ate a half a log o goat cheese actually.2

Yay!! I've done the brown sugar straight from bag thing too. So, does that make us both weird? LOL

Great minds think alike
It might make us weird, but it also makes us awesome

Olives. Usually green, but kalamata work in a craving pinch.
Chocolate, 72% dark. Bonus points if there's sea salt.
Peanut butter on crackers.
Navel oranges are the biggie right now.1 -
Fruit, chocolate, cream cheese, peanut butter, english muffins lol... I NEVER crave protein and pretty much have to force myself to eat it0
-
I rarely have much of a craving for anything.
I did when I started with MFP ... I craved bread. I didn't used to eat much bread but now I have a slice every day.
Any other cravings occur because I am missing something my body needs.
For example, after a hot humid weekend of cycling last weekend I have had a mild craving for salty food. That's normal under those conditions. I would have sweated a lot. It feels like that craving is easing today.0 -
I don't get cravings often...when I do, it's usually something I haven't had in awhile and there's usually some other environmental factor going on...like last Friday (usually pizza night) I really had a craving to grill burgers out on the patio...it was the first really spring like day we've had with temps in the mid 70s and I just couldn't stop thinking about throwing those burgers on the grill.
I also get cravings for various ethnic foods...particularly Thai, Vietnamese, and Indian when I haven't had them in awhile.0 -
Cheese, Chocolate, Sushi, Bread, anything fluffy and chewy, mochi, mashed sweet potatoes, soup, tea, coffee, lemonade. Honestly, drinks are my downfall, I would take a sugary drink anytime. Stevia has helped me so much.0

i usually get cravings around my period for baked goods. Think cinnamon buns, wienerbrød, kanelsnegl, kærnemælkshorn, Hindbærsnitte, Cremebolle (especially the ones they just had out for fæstelavn), honey buns, etc.
I also love ice cream and gummy candies (especially sour gummies). And of course chocolate.
When i'm in a really crave-y kind of mood i want three things: chocolate, salty chips, and cold coke. 10/10 would recommend.

Haha most people wont know what any of those things are :P. (norwegian here lol)1 -
Cheeses, classic potato chips and pickles.
At least pickles aren't bad for me.0 -
I think that nutrient deficiencies cause a lot of my cravings. For example, I notice that I really crave unsweetened chocolate when I forget to take my magnesium for a couple of days. I crave red meat when I suspect I forget to take my iron. The worst is when my diet ends up being really low in fat for a couple of days, because then I just crave butter, cream, coconut, and ice cream.0

Complex carbs - breads, pasta, crackers, popcorn.0
