Cravings!! Men vs Women!!
You guys all crack me up! I needed that laugh after today's funeral.
I, for one LOVE tube steaks - especially on the grill. Don't rightly care what kind of "meat" was used to make 'em. They're tasty. I like 'em without the bun too.
Nuts and pies are tasty too. Oh heck...almost everything tastes good to me these days.
I used to crave chips/dip....rarely sweets. Now it's the opposite. I'm thinking that the reason may have to do with my lower carb diet. I don't worry about carbs in natural form - fruit, veggies, dairy. But I try most of the time to stay away from white flours, potatoes, pasta, etc.
When I went on Adkins a few years ago, my cravings for sweets was out of control when I went back to eating carbs. So I'm thinking that's why I crave them now.

Some people might not support my WLS decision.
Those people remind me of slinkys. Not good for much but it would would bring a smile to my face if someone pushed them down the stairs.

Glad this site provided you some cheer after having to attend a funeral. Hope it was a good service and that you and hubby are coping.
Now as to tube steaks, I beg to differ. I think they are gross and don't want to eat them any more; whether with or without bun. Now there are some types of good sausages that I would like to eat though they are so fatty I haven't done much lately. I like the Hillshire Farms sausages though they are probably made out of just as gross stuff as the tube steaks.
I think when we are all on this overall reduced food diet due to our sleeves, we tend to be happier with the more nutritional food. I know in the old days the more junk I ate the more I wanted and I was never really hungry but wanted more and more and richer and more high calorie/fat/carb stuff to satisfy whatever little demons that were telling me to eat. So while I crave peanut butter these days its about a 3 on a scale of 1 to 10 instead of the 12.5 on the Richter scale cravings Iused to have for choc and sweets.
