I'm in the PMS zone and so just currently craving carp to eat. Right now I would love a Greggs chicken and bacon baguette, some salt n vinegar crisps (baked for preference) some sort of disgustingly gooey fudge cake and a bottle of sprite.

What's yours?

Punjabi puris (it’s a crisp they stopped making in the nineties). Omg they were so good

A chicken Caesar wrap. Might have to go and get one. The craving is strong!

Oh I would love a chocolate biscuit, the only trouble is it never stops at one. I have a dreadful sweet tooth and musnt switch it on!

roast chicken, baby new potatoes and salad - oh wait that is exactly what I have just eaten.

I'm sat here really fancying a crispy based pizza with red onion marmalade, olives and goats cheese.... with a side helping of polenta fries followed by a huge serving of tiramisu. Washed down with copious glasses of white wine and soda.

The reality is that I'm type 2 diabetic and can't eat any of the above, hence wanting it.

Tomato, basil and mozzarella salad, ciabatta with oil/vinegar dip, crisp cold white wine and ice cold lemon water
(obviously in a shaded terrace with a view in Italy)

Coconut shrimp, slaw, spicy wedges and a virgin pina colada. If I could sit on a Caribbean Beach to eat it that’d be even better!

A prawn cocktail followed by a fresh cream iced bun.

WWomble · 14/07/2026 17:56

Filet steak, caramelised onions, chips and petit pois.

Never will understand why they stop making the best tasting stuff. Looking at you, Cadbury Fuse bar 😥.

A big, juicy burger and chips with onion rings on the side.

MistyMountainTop · 14/07/2026 18:17

Roast pork with crackling & apple sauce

I'd probably pass. I tend to snap my fingers when I dance so having food appear would make any occasions where I dance a mess.

Maybe wedding cake, on second thoughts. I dance a lot at weddings so it would come in handy.

Pinksalamana · 14/07/2026 18:18

Freshly baked scones, still warm. Just with the jam (I don’t eat clotted cream). Delicious.

FionnulaTheCooler · 14/07/2026 18:19

A fudge doughnut and a large glass of rosè.

Tapas platter please - baby squid, chorizo in red wine, croquettes chicken, ham or beef and some crispy bread

SquigglePigs · 14/07/2026 18:27

Sushi- specifically a mix of salmon and tuna sashimi, maki and nigiri.

I'm a bit obsessed at the moment!!

Dearg · 14/07/2026 18:30

Oh you lot are making me hungry. I really want anything with chips, but I have just started a low-carb diet, so chicken with veg traybake it is.

BansheeOfTheSouth · 14/07/2026 18:30

A double Bernard Matthews Turkey Steaks (the frozen 4pk that disappeared in favour of more processed options) burger with cheese followed by a broken up Rowntree's secret in white vanilla ice cream with Bird's Caramel Ice Magic on top.

Maraudingmarauders · 14/07/2026 18:33

I’m pregnant. I want an extensive raw sushi platter with pickled ginger, lots of wasabi and good quality soy sauce.

Gingerkittykat · 14/07/2026 18:37

I've been craving food from my favourite Italian restaurant. I would have chicken liver pate for starters, carbonara and garlic bread for main, maybe a couple of slices of pizza and raspberry and lemon sorbet for dessert.
