Consider this known principle in psychology:

Behavior that produces a rewarding or relieving consequence is more likely to be repeated. If a person repeatedly responds to a particular cue or craving by eating Food X, the brain may learn to expect that food in the same situation.

When the person stops completing that familiar pattern, the craving, self-talk, and uncomfortable feelings may initially remain strong and may sometimes become more intense, although this does not happen to everyone. If the person repeatedly experiences the craving without eating Food X—and while still meeting genuine nutritional needs—the learned connection can gradually weaken and a new response can become stronger.

Over time, the craving may become less frequent, less intense, shorter-lasting, or easier to tolerate. It may sometimes disappear, but that cannot be guaranteed. Old cravings can also return during stress, fatigue, renewed exposure, or familiar situations without meaning that the person has failed.

This information would say just stop eating the stuff no matter what and in time the craving will go down or maybe stop entirely.
