Do you get food cravings and if so, are they often the same food?

I often get cravings, usually for chocolate, dried fruit, or something on toast.

I DO get cravings and it is sometimes for sweet things and often for salty.

So I get lots of cravings though I think it is more a boredom thing as it happens mainly at night when I watch boring television, and I start eating even though I have just had my dinner.

You stole my answer... I was about to say the very same thing. Why is it that we alternate between sweet and salty cravings? I want one, and then an hour later I want the other. :(

I now only get them say once every now and then.
Mainly for the little custards in the supermarket.
I buy 2, and then I'm good to go.

As for meal type of foods, I find eating a LOT of work!

My biggest downfall is things that are sweet.

I get cravings when TOM rolls around, and I always crave something salty and greasy.

Laksa. I can't live without it. Seafood laksa is my FAVOURITE FOOD!!! I've never successfully cooked it so we go out for laksa at least once or twice a month.

I can just about say that I don't get food cravings. If I do they are few and far in between. I just get hungry or thirsty from time to time.

I don't really get cravings but when I do it's usually able texture rather than taste - so I could be in the mood for something crunchy for example

Hmmm......when the weather is hot & humid, I sweat, not 'perspire'! So often 'crave' salty foods. Have lately 're-discovered' original Pretzels, which I've not eaten for a few years'. Will also buy some good quality Feta Cheese.
Conversely, also happy to have some Dark Chocolate!

Pregnancy cravings were a totally different 'set of food'. Apple Pies, Ginger Ale, Stone Fruit, Roast Chicken & Custard Apples! Not all at the same time, though!

P.S. Forgot to say, Hot Chips with Salt on a rainy, cold day!

Food cravings all the time and most of the times its for a yummy gooey choclatey rich cake with ice cream.
