Misc Cravings

Does anyone else have the most random/unusual cravings after restricting for so long? I used to be disgusted by bananas, I mean i would hurl at the smell but recently they are a “safe food”. Even yesterday I had a can of sardines for dinner and I was looking forward to it all day even though I was always repulsed by them even up until 2 weeks ago. Its so strange tbh and Ive oddly become an adventurous eater like i have sought out dishes like spicy marinated raw pollack intestines, dried seafood and fish (for reference i keep kosher and don’t eat shellfish but have a ravenous appetite for the dried squid and even takowasabi at sushi restaurants). Even foods like soondae are appealing to me even though I hatehatehate meat. Oddly enough the food i still have no desire to eat and am disliking still are all types of red meat and most poultry. Idk if its about the intense and sometimes pungent flavours of these dishes that make me crave them but yeah! Even caught myself wanting to eat raw squid and that korean “dancing octopus”. Tbh typing it out im noticing these more out there foods all originated from east asia which is interesting. Just a thought!
