That's interesting. As I think about it, I guess that I WAS a big salty snack person, including the
chips and cheeses as well as a sweet snacker. But I am not really missing the salty ones now. There
has been a bag of pretzels both downstairs and in a drawer at work and I have not had any for 2-3
weeks. Maybe I have licked that one. Now the sweets are driving me more and maybe that is carbo
addiction??
