Default Vinegar Craving?

OK... So, I've been thinking I was REALLY strange (most know that I am.. but I have been thinking even stranger than normal... )..

Every time I open the fridge.. I think.. mm.... italian dressing.. wonder if I could drink that! (its fat free ceasar).. and.. NO.. I havent drank any.. but I think about it every time..

So.. this has been happening for about a week... last night.. I had dill pickles for dinner.. THEY WERE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good.. never had a pickle taste that good.. even thought about drinking the juice.. but.. the minute I had those pickles.. the weird italian dressing thing stopped...

So.. I'm telling Carrie about this on the phone.. and she has the same issue! Says she never liked italian dressing before.. not puts it on lots of stuff... and loves pickles now too... and we laughed about it.. and thought... yep.. we're sisters...

THEN.. I was telling RoseAnn about it.. and she said she has been having the same issue.. with the vinegar stuff...

HOW BIZARRE IS THIS??? so.. heres my question... does anyone else have a vinegar craving they just have to fill sometimes??? Maybe this is some weird GBP side effect?

Maybe you were just having a "PICKLE" craving.

Yup...I went on a pickle binge for a while. Last 2 days I feel like I could eat anything in the fridge and tasted a few things...ended up in the pickle jar.

I think its a change in the body and I think we need salt..so pickles would be one way to get it. Nice thing is we don't need massive amounts of food to satisfy the craving..Bonus!

Yep, they still taste so good!! What I have noticed is that I crave things with a lot of flavor...the more intense the flavor the better.

When you start craving PICKLES and ICE CREAM... it's just the stork making the rounds... LOL!

My dietician just recommended DILL PICKLES to me a few days ago! Hm... maybe there is something in the August Air!!!
