But put a potato chip in front of me or a hunk of chocolate cake and I'm like "ugh".....(now one would think 'cake' would be bread, but for whatever reason that falls under 'sweet' in my mouth!)

What about you?

describes me entirely, i could drown in a bowl of pasta..then finish it off with a hunk of warm bread/butter.

Probably carbs and sugar. I love pasta, rice, bread and pizza, but I also find pies, cookies, ice cream, chocolate, gummy bears and iced tea irresistible. One thing that helps with the sugar though is eating less of it, and eating whole grains usually helps with the white carb craving. Essentially, white carbs and sugar are the same thing, so that would explain why I can't resist either!

SUGAR SUGAR SUGAR
i don't care much for fries, pasta, pizza...however i have to have some sugar or chocolate almost every day - i just dont know how to control that craving
i have to eat a lot of protein to keep the cravings low, but i still cannot imagine life without sugar:)

Carbs! I love bread and pasta.

Carbs and salt. I really and truly don't have a sweet tooth with the exception of an occasional weakness for milkshakes or ice cream. I used to be a hard core red licorice addict and cut it out as it was like Crack to me, LOL.

I love bread, pasta, pizza, salty and spicey foods...hot salsas, pestos, you name it!

Carbs for sure! I can't and won't give it up.

All of the above! I like my dessert and I like my carbs. From time to time I'll go on salt benders and devour cheez-its and french fries. when I inadvertently cut out carbs for a brief period in 2004, I lost a lot of weight fast and started stuffing myself with bread again because I got too skinny at 105 and 5' 7". I'm very happy with the way I look and I don't worry about what I eat because I eat as healthily as possible and I exercise.
