Has anyone experienced a similar craving or can suggest an explanation? Diet info below, along with some speculation:
I consume a diet based upon fruits, milk, fruit juices, well-cooked potatoes and mushrooms, eggs, liver once per week, gelatinous cuts of meat such as lamb shoulder/neck. I salt my food, sugar my milk, supplement Tocovit after coming off of a high PUFA diet that has had its impact. I've begun supplementing magnesium, believing it may have been the missing link and it has reaped some benefits.
I should be introducing oysters once per week soon, particularly as a means for increasing zinc intake.
I have a feeling my overall caloric intake may be too low for a young adult male, so possibly I subconsciously realise that cookies are a caloricly dense source, or that the PUFA suppresses metabolism to reduce hunger? I'm just speculating at this point.
It may be a simple desire for the taste that I need to get over, but it seems that cravings typically stem from some deficiency or requirement.
