Cravings !

[PTree15]

It is strange as the craving hasn't gone away. It isn't just about texture. It is the taste, aroma and the feeling of having eaten something satisfying.
I made some wholwheat penne with sauteed onions, zuchinni/courgettes, garlic with fake parmesan for dinner. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy it at all.

That's a bummer. I am fairly fortunate in that I didn't really crave things once I gave them up, though it took me a lot of time to give up cheese. I made myself stop thinking about cheese and other things as food options. It's a mindset that has helped me stay on track.

I also crave cheddar and parmesan on pasta.

Have you tried nutritional yeast flakes on pasta? They give a dish some tang. There are also some cashew-based parmesan-like sprinkles that you can make, though I haven't tried them. People seem to like them, though.

Yes, I did as it is full of nutrients but it sadly doesn't taste anythink like parmesan ! We don't get mock cheese over here and I have to buy it when I'm in the UK.

I know it's Vegan but I now have a craving for soft Aussie liquorice. The only thing is that I can't buy it
overhere.

I just came across this thread and felt it needed a suggestion for Gardein crabless cakes.
I never craved sea meat and those things really tasted like the real thing to me!

Nutritional yeast by itself doesn't seem cheesey to me, but add some kind of fat and garlic powder, and salt, and then it seems like parm

I bought some coconut breaded prawns from Sophie's Kitchen. I must say that even if they
don't taste like the real thing, they did the trick.
