I have an intense craving for a soft-boiled egg. Runny yoke, and bread to dip it in...

I have had a craving for a wholewheat or bran or muesli muffin since yesterday morning. It seems no-one in the UK makes these to buy though. I have considered baking some but I didn't have any raisins (and if I'm going to bake one, I may as well include my favourite ingredient!). I think I'll bake some tonight. Although I'm torn about letting a whole batch of starchy, high GI temptation into my house...

And apart from that I unsurprisingly have the ever-present craving for a baked potato with cheese and tuna-mayo.

You could make only a bit - four muffins or something.

Ever since my post in the weirdest foods thread, I have a craving for t-bone steak and eggs, cheese on the eggs, both slathered with hot sauce and steak sauce, and a double serving of hashbrowns with cheese jalapenos and tomatoes...

by **blue_eyedspacemonkey** » Wed Jul 01, 2009 12:46 pm UTC

Bacon. On thick buttered bread with loads of red sauce/ketchup. *drools*

by **Zohar** » Wed Jul 01, 2009 12:49 pm UTC

Egg craving status - partly corrected. I had "shakshuka" for lunch (eggs sunny side up cooked in tomato sauce in a pan), but it's not exactly the same. But I won't have two more eggs tonight, so I'll have to settle for tomorrow.

Two words: Waffle House.

Order the T-bone steak and eggs plate. You will want your hashbrowns "double order scattered, covered, diced, and peppered." The eggs would be "scrambled with cheese." There is Tabasco Sauce and salsa in the condiment trays on the table. The coffee is excellent, better than Starbucks at a fraction of the cost. Most locations (read: all) grind their beans daily.

I've been craving watermelon all afternoon, but all I have is canteloupe, and with my new PCOS-management diet, I'm not allowed fruit in the evenings anyway.

I made muffins, and they were DELICIOUS!! I even picked some of the wild black cherries that grow near our house to add, and my hands looked like a deranged murderer's from stoning them, which was kinda cool.

YUM MUFFINS.

I love Waffle House. It's cheap and they have decent food.

This makes me sad.

Fix'd.

Seriously Moo, how could you miss such an opportunity?

I crave this when I'm hung over. Cooked any way, so long as it's runny.

That totally sucks. I don't think I'd be able to handle being that far from a Waffle House. I wouldn't see any point in living if I can't have my scattered-smothered at least once a week., along with scrambled eggs, BACON (they have awesome bacon), and of course a waffle. Or else a double cheeseburger with grilled onions, scattered-smothered, and maybe a slice of apple pie.

I guess I tend to forget that some states don't even have Waffle Houses, since I live in the state where the corporate office is located. In fact, I work in the very city the corporate office is located, and know where it is. The restaurant near where I work gets a lot of people in from corporate on a daily basis.

Waffle House is actually where I get it from :-D

I have one Waffle house about 5 miles from my apartment, and another 10 miles away. It's great, because I pregame at my apartment, walk a mile to the nearest bar, finish up, and tart walking to wafle house. By the time I get there, I have room for my tall order :-D

Also, I'm not a fan of coffee at all. I know, I'm weird...

Just had a really big craving for vegemite toast with cheese.
So I made some...mmmm it's insanely good :mrgreen:

Sorta related...

I need to deal with my cravings for Cheetoes. I'm gaining poundage.

I am exactly the same way only I like my yolks hard. For some reason I don't like the taste of runny yolks, though the texture doesn't bother me at all. Also when hung over, I crave bacon and sausage and orange juice... or any breakfast food, really.

The worst craving I have is for rich coffee in the evening. If I drink regular coffee to get the delicious taste, I won't be able to sleep. But I haven't found a decaf brand that is as good as regular coffee, so I end up with a partially unsatisfied craving.

But my biggest, most frequent craving... is shrimp ramen noodles. *bliss*

I have, never, ever eaten peanut butter and jelly when I was a kid. All of a sudden, at 22, I'm scarfing them left a right.

by **Zohar** » Wed Feb 09, 2011 1:56 pm UTC

I want to eat pancakes.

by **theGoldenCalf;** » Wed Feb 09, 2011 2:57 pm UTC

When I'm not asleep, I crave hummus. Other cravings usually involve salted fish, luckily enough I work near the market

Also, damn you Zohar, now I'll have to make shakshuka instead of eating what I've already cooked yesterday all evening

EDIT: a day later - I feel like I could kill for any form of white chocolate. I could have gotten some at the store around the corner if only I weren't such a lazy bastard.

I have had two bowls of sugar puffs today and finished the box. I still really want more sugar puffs, and I know I have another unopened box downstairs, but must resist!

Currently craving chili.

And tagalongs.

by **psykx** » Tue Feb 22, 2011 10:09 am UTC

as a kid I hated peanut butter, now I'm craving hot crisp pita bread filled with set honey, chunky peanut butter and a banana. Also chunky kit cats with the chocolate taken off and sausage sandwiches with roasted butter-nut squash, courgettes and aubergine...

damn.. two hours to lunch.

by **Zohar** » Wed Mar 09, 2011 12:07 pm UTC

Chocolate! I want chocolate! So much chocolate! I already had some but I want more!

Hot and sour soup, with egg rolls mmm....

by **semicharmed** » Sun Mar 13, 2011 3:45 pm UTC

All last week, I really wanted something with beans. Preferably white beans. And so I made potato-white bean soup this weekend, with chili powder and sauteed garlic and onions added. Served over rice with pan-roasted chicken in onions last night, and today eaten as leftovers with the leftover chicken off the bone and simmer in the brother as it heated up.

Delicious. And fully satisfied the craving. Now all I have to do is find the ingredient for Thai food (specifically the ingredients for this one salad...) and all of my food itches will be scratched. For now.

I've been craving rice with a lot of soy sauce for several days. And I've eaten soy sauced rice a few times now! It's not really going away.

by **AngrySquirrel** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 11:57 am UTC

Garlic bread.

by **Aleril** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 8:44 pm UTC

I have been craving Dim Sum for the past few weeks, and even after I eat it I want more.

by **Zohar** » Wed Aug 24, 2011 11:04 am UTC

I have a changing background as my desktop picture on my computer, of photos from various vacations. Today a picture of mitarashi dango came up. It's a type of rice-flour dumpling that's very popular in Japan which I absolutely loved, and I suddenly had a huge craving for it. I decided to look up a recipe online and it seems very simple to make! All I need is rice flour. So hopefully I'll prepare it this weekend.

We have taco shells at my house right now but (almost) none of the other ingredients for tacos. Which makes me sad because I REALLY could go for some tacos.

I'm craving fried egg, sriracha, and some kind of meat. I have everything but the meat, but that's kinda the most important part. Not sure what to do with myself

I really want bacon and eggs right now but I'm stuck at work...

by **PictureSarah** » Tue Jan 29, 2013 8:51 pm UTC

This thread should be revived.

I am craving nachos, or maybe a bean and cheese burrito. Really I just want to eat a jar of nacho cheese sauce. Anything salty, beany and cheesy would be acceptable. And spicy. Jalapenos would be a plus.

by **Izawwlgood** » Tue Jan 29, 2013 8:58 pm UTC

Ginger beer and caprese salad. I want moz slices the size of a burger patty, drenched in balsamic vinegrette.
