Random food cravings

[Aiden]

Hate hot spicy stuff lol

But yeh dono if will change on T but always had a sweet tooth.  But no so much of a sweet tooth that can stand to eat much chocolate.  Prefere the milder sweet stuff, usually extra sour too   although in last year or so have had difficulty with sour candy due to the effects of acid reflux and heartburn and such on the stomach. 

As far as other cravings, have them all time, usually for certain foods.  Right now it's Quiznos subs, last month it was Cold Stone ice cream lol.  I've been through the Chinese food phase as well, and a pizza phase, and an itallian food phase, even turkey burgers and mircowave meals lol.  And Perogies.  Can be expensive sometimes though.

I pour chili sauce on everything - the spicier, the better.  I've become so desensitized to the heat it that the average stuff from the grocery store just tastes like sale & vinegar.  I have to go to the specialty stores for the good stuff.  The best I've found so far is Dave's Ultimate Insanity.  This stuff can literally kill you if you're too young, too old, or you have heart problems.  If I worked for the DEA (US), I'd say it should be listed as a Schedule II controlled substance.

I'm with ya there. I put several different kinds of chili extracts in my food and have eaten raw habanero chilis.

Tip: If you eat hot food that's too hot, don't drink water. It intensifies the heat. Drink milk or eat bread.

I've always had the chocolate cravings, before and after. Also, we can add cheese to my list

Strawberries and chocolate, and I've never had HRT in my life.  Its all me there, I love both of them, especially mixed.

I've concluded that chocolate is a vital component in male-to-female HRT - maybe even more so than estradiol.  I just have to figure out how I can inject it...

Laffin, yes we do seem to be a bunch of choco-whores, don't we? I recently ran low on my estradiol and my choco cravings reached critical mass, or something. Fortunately for me, and unfortunately for the Hershey company, I got my new prescription.

Uh-oh. If chocolate is a requirement... I'm pretty much doomed.

See, Nephie? 100% of females can't agree on ANYthing, not even chocolate! Leiandra and my on line gf don't care for chocolate, which causes me to hurt my neck by tilting my head so much to look at them in disbelief!

PS--but I still adore them both, despite this unaccountable trait.

Yeah, I have to avoid the chocolate Aisle when I go shopping, otherwise I'll go broke, and my teeth will rot out.  My current fav is the lindt super dark with orange filling.

I have a couple of cravings. One is dark chocolate, which I don't get very often.

But I have this thing for carbs, mostly bread and pastas, I crave them really bad sometimes and just seem to eat so much of it, which I know isn't healthy...

I also sometimes have a craving for spicy stuff and hot sauce. I don't like things burning hot but I do like some spice and pepper flavor.

Another craving is for sour foods like sour candy, vinegar especially and sour fruits like lemons and limes.

Aaaaand, tomato products. Spaghetti sauces, cooked tomatoes, V-8 or tomato juice, salsa..

Here is the extent on the effects strawberries and chocolate have on me.

I was working a lunch shift on a Friday a couple of months back, and it was one of those shifts that was long, and I was cut with the closers of the lunch shift.  It was horrible, the shift was the epitome of bad.  Food was coming out slowly, like really slowly, long wait, four servers called in so we were short, and I think our breadmaker and two chefs called in.  It was bad, and I was ready to kill people when I got home.  Well the people I was staying with at the time didn't know this when I came home, and my friend Sam, she was making chocolate fondue, and had a ton of strawberries.

Well as I said, I wanted to kill people, but after eating a Pound of those strawberries dipped in chocolate (she had 4 pounds of them) I was quite happy.  Very chipper mood as it were.

The best food ever?  Chili con carne, with chocolate and chili sauce.  I'll eat until I get sick.
