When you crave for any food...

Philippines
January 7, 2010 5:11am CST
do you make sure you get to eat that food immediately? Say for instance, you are craving for pizza. Are you going to call for pizza delivery or go to the nearest pizza store immediately? Or let's say, you are currently craving for steak. Do you go to the nearest restaurant that offers steak just to satisfy the craving? Well, in my case, sometimes, I make sure that I satisfy that craving as soon as I can. Not all the time of course. But it's funny how I react to my food cravings.

I have craves ever so often. I try to go and get it quickly when I crave it too but it is not always possible. I lose the crave alot of times if I have to wait or travel for the food.

Hey dolce! I know exactly what you mean! If I could satisfy every food craving that easily that I have I know that I surely would! There are usually two things that stop me! One is money and the other is getting to a restaurant or getting the food delivered!lol My main craving is Chinese Food because that is my ultimate favorite! And I could easily order $40 worth just for myself! So, being I can't afford it that usually will stop me! As for steak, I love "Outback Steakhouse" and I need someone to go with me! Pizza is alot easier, but not so cheap these days! So, most of the time my cravings end up as something else that I totally really don't want to eat!

I usually give it time and see if it passes, mostly because cravings usually strike me when I'm sitting at my desk or something like that and I don't have access to anything edible. If it's still driving me nuts by the time I get home then sometimes I'll give in, depending on what it is. But if it's something awful like KFC then that's just too bad for me! If it's something that's not TOO bad for me and I just can't get past it then I'll make a trip to the grocery store.

I wish I had enough money to satisfy my cravings, but sometimes I just have to eat whatever's in my fridge and make my stomach full so I won't feel like eating anything else. If I could I would get the food I'm craving for immediately, that would be amazing

I do what i can to satisfy my cravings. my husband is very good about going to find what I wnt, if we can't get it delivered. there are a lot of nice places around here to get all kinds of good food, so when I have a craving for something it doesn't take that long to find it, nor does it take that much effort.

Whenever I do get hungry, I just eat what is available at home. If ever I am outside and I get to think about something good to eat, I'd probably go to places where I can actually eat them. Then again, craving isn't common for me when it comes to food. When I get hungry and I am outside, I just think of what would be nice to eat and I guess I'd eat that.

It all depends. If I have a little extra money and I am really craving something that I don't already have in the house, I might order it or go out and buy it. Most of the time I don't get too many cravings, so I guess I am lucky. I heard that most food cravigns stem from not being properly nourished in one way or another, so you are craving the food containing vitamins, minerals, or nutrients you are lacking. Don't know if that's true or not, but that's what I've heard from a few places before.

Just go over to the kitchen when the food I crave for is not available , eat what is there and imagine as if it is the food I am craving for. Yummy I can imagine now a crispy.....fried chicken.

Most of the time when I crave I don't have money with me so I just bear with it till it goes away. Sometimes when the craving is too strong I just see what I can eat in the fridge.

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. Oh well, if I don't have money, I find an alternative food that is cheaper just to satisfy myself.:D

I usually tend to fight those cravings because they happen usually an hour or two after lunch so if I satisfied them all the time I'd have 100kg by now. I usually crave for chocolate or similar stuff so I avoid eating that.

I usually used to go down to the nearest shop and buy and eat the food that I craved for or else I would just go to a nearby restaurant and eat it. But, now I have bought a microwave owen with convection. So, for now, making food that I crave for has become a lot easier and I am satisfied with my cravings and fulfill them as soon as possible!!

Yes sometimes I crave for a particular food but I didn't buy the food right away instead I eat the food that available in our house. I let it goes away and satisfied in the food that I'm eating at home.

If you are full you will not have any cravings.Most time when I have some cravings I will get anything edible to eat and they always taste not bad. Sometimes when you get what I want or crave for its taste is not what I really want.When I feel hungry i will have many cravings.Then i just bear and go to eat what i can really get.Maybe something you crave for is fatty or others and then you can't eat that food.That is the problem I often come across.It is so bad but i can eat others instead.
