    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.

    Cheeses, classic potato chips and pickles.

    At least pickles aren't bad for me.

    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.

    What's wrong with cheese... And classic potato chips (I'm assuming these are potato, oil, salt)?

    Like another person said sometimes I crave stuff that I'm "missing". I ate too low fat for about a week and all week all I can think about is my peanut butter jar.

    Cakes , breads , etc. My problem is if I fit them in as part of my calories I want more and more and more lol. I bought one gourmet cupcake I will eat off of and ration out for 4-5 days but man it is hard to stop each time I take a nibble

    Nothing particularly bad with cheese or chips, but they are fairly high calorie foods and they're just very difficult for me to stop eating once I get started. Chips are for special occassions. Cheese I eat every day. Probably a little more than I should, but I'm making it work.

    Everything!!! It differs week to week.
    This week - Pizza, chocolate and breads. Mainly because I had to order tons of pizza for an event at work and there was some left over and I had to resist free pizza!!!

    Other cravings in the past couple weeks - saucy chicken wings, cheese fries, garlicy breadsticks, donuts, ice cream, mexican food, candy, fast food, italian food, ***Yea, so everything!!! LOL

    -And yes, I know there are healthy alternatives but sometimes there is nothing like the fattening version! ha

    Depends. I love so many foods and I get a hankering for many things. But I'd say fat is usually involved in some way. During Winter I most often crave a good fresh tomato, because IMO those can only come fresh from the vine.

    I don't get cravings very much but I could eat...

    Potato chips
    Saltines
    Homemade bread fresh out of the oven

    Over and above what is a healthy portion lol. So my moderating these right now means rarely if ever have them at home.
