Weirdest Cravings

Usually when you're on a low-carb diet, you crave foods full of carbohydrates; Pizza, Cheeseburgers, Sandwiches, Chips, etc. It's standard. These are the things you can no longer have, you crave them.

I hve no idea how this happened, but I'm seriously craving low-carb foods that I just don't have the cash for right now. Hot Wings, a hamburger patty with cheese, pork chops...

But what I have, is HAM. Lots and lots and lots and lots of HAM. And some eggs and some cheese, but mostly? HAM.

So sick of Ham right now :(

I am going to go crazy for a cheeseburger next week at the writer's workshop. It is at a Jewish university and the food is Kosher. Meat and Dairy must not touch.

That's why you put a slice of lettuce between the hamburger patty and the cheese :)

Hot wings are cheap to cook up though, just broil the wings amd add fifty fifty bbq sauce and franks red hot

Well sure, but have you seen the price of unseasoned wings lately? Around here they cost the same as boneless skinless chicken breast!

And so I just wait and hope for a sale :)

Wow, congratulations!

Crunchy things is no problem for me on low carb - PORK RINDS!!!You can make them salty, sweet, spicy, whatever!
