Hi I am a big foody. I just love my food. Being good these days and curbed my appetite. But I crave savoury and spicy. I love all things spicy and tart. More than sweet. Not sure why.

    Not I, I'm a big fan of the candy aisle at 7-11 and it's usually sugar when I binge.

    I like sweets but I can down bags of chips and crackers easily. I love salt over sweet.

    I have always desired more savory foods, which is probably why it was easy for me to give up sweets and pop when I went on the autoimmune diet.

    Oooo!! Sour cream or tomato sauce, I'll gladly take those over baked goods or candy.

    Salt calls to me more than sweets. Cheese, ham, turkey, chips, olves, popcorn
    I used to eat spicier food but can't handle it as well anymore.

    Not a sweets person, but give me something crunchy and salty and I'm a happy girl!

    yep...biggest weakness is nuts, chips, Doritos, Cheetos and of course the craft brews to wash 'em down, I gotta quit typing this or I'm going to break. I can easily pass on the candy and ice cream, never drink soda.
    There are replacement options, I've cooked up several batches of roasted chick peas. Pretty easy to do, dirt cheap, and you can control the level of salty and spicy as you make them. Edamame also roast up nice and crunchy.

    I think savory is a guy thing; women seem to crave carbs. I like laughing cow cheese on pita chips or if you are an olive fan gaea olive green spread on pita chips;

    I tend to go for savory as preference... then to sweet then back to savory, especially when snacking

    This.

    We have ice cream in our freezer unopened from the holidays.

    Cookies, Chocolate, Sweets.... no thanks.

    Nachos are an entirely different story.

    I could literally eat pizza for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, I’d take that over sweets any day.
