Random Cravings!

[Im a BusyBee]

Do you have cravings for strange things to eat?? I normally eat very healthily but last few days ive HAD to have the strangest things......pizza and chips last night and i really cant remember the last time i ate that! Today its Christmas cake with lots of soft icing - and i never eat anything with fruit in it! How strange am i??

Busy - "they" say when we have cravings it is because our body is lacking some vitamin or mineral that it needs - maybe just a trace of it. "They" also say your tastes change a bit every 7 years. I am not sure if either one of those is true - I just go with the flow myself:)

I've been having a craving for jacket potatoes lately, so just went and got one for my lunch!

I eat very healthily all the time about once every 3 or 4 months, I just go junk crazy.
I can get through a multipack of Monster Munch in record time or a bumper pack of "crab" sticks.

In my day to day life my only real weakness is raw smoked bacon. And Mrs Ellswood's sweet gherkins.

How can you eat raw smoked bacon??

[drchasuble]

With gusto.

Cookies lately, before that it was cheesecake.... I've never had much of a sweet tooth but I think it's that time of the year....
