This cat's facial expression, says it all. Everyone gets those insane cravings for really awful food. Like aerosol cheese from a can and crackers, chips with french onion dip, a big sundae the size of a Vermonster! Y'all know how it goes. I haven't noticed any like super real cravings until it hit me like a ton of bricks Tuesday. I WASN'T hungry at all is the weird part. I wanted something super salty and delicious, kettle cooked salt and vinegar chips to be exact. It was like some kind of crazy frenzy washed all over me and I was like I NEED THEM, MUST FIND THEM! Like I'm some kind of a crazed drug addict!
You know how people have that theory about quitting smoking? You only supposedly crave a cigarette for the span of ten seconds? Like you're supposed to count to ten when you have one and it magically goes away? Yeah well that's kind of how this was. I'm not really sure what happened, but one minute I COULDN'T LIVE WITHOUT THEM, and the next minute I didn't even know why I wanted them! Strange right? I think I've figured out. When the munchies come back and try to take me to junk food hell, just be lazy and don't move. THAT'S RIGHT, I TOLD YOU DON'T MOVE! Moving during one of these cravings is likely to lead you to a midnight store run, once you're at the store you'll find other crap that you just gotta have, you'll BUY all of these and take them home. Then you'll park it somewhere comfy, open up your treats and let the munchie goblins lead you STRAIGHT TO THE BOWELS OF HELL AT THE BOTTOM OF THE BAG! Then you'll wake up, like it's a bad dream...and you'll have nothing but crumbs all over you AS PROOF!
Dramatic, I know. But seriously, that's how it is! Crazy! It's taken me a while to get the knack of how to curb my cravings, and not take munchie goblin's hand to lead me into a dark alley where I for sure will be shanked! Even when I have given into the little bastard, I ALWAYS feel horrible about myself--so why bother doing it right? Anyway, I hope my little horror story inspired some of you readers to deal with cravings. It's something that you'll eventually adapt to, and when you get there it'll be so rewarding!
I know exactly what you mean! In fact, Jason will try and tell you that I get the munchies on a daily basis...don't listen to him, he's SUCH an exaggerator ;) My problem is that since I moved to LA, I've been craving all my favorite food in Hawaii. Things that I do not even eat on a normal basis, but for some reason I feel I NEED to put in my mouth now that I'm 5,000 miles away! Crazy how the mind plays tricks on you. Well you know what I gotta say to him?...YOu can't trick a trickster! Ha!
