..yay for holdiays coming up, I guess?

I am craving ginger so bad. Like this is probably my 5th Altoids ginger candy, and as much as I hate them...I want them.

I'm known for getting weird cravings (my general "wtf" one is peppermint and lemon together), but this one's really confusing me because there isn't much nutritional value in spices.

Um, wtf and can this hurt me?

Dont you worry, it wont hurt you. I get strange cravings every now and again, so long as they are not detrimental to your health and wellbeing then I shouldnt see them as a problem.

How about ginger beer? Or ginger set in jelly? Or try cooking with ginger you never know it might help settle the cravings.

I have no idea if it's bad for health or not :P

What's gingerbeer? If its alcoholic, no.

I might see if I can find any candied in the house. it might be more tolerable :P

Cooking will be next week for xmas (I make the cookies :3)

Its like a ginger fizzy pop, you need to check the label for what you are buying as some is alcaholic but most of the time it is not. I am yet to taste the difference between the two.

Ginger Beer is non-alcoholic, and tbh its bloody awesome. And no it will not hurt me, just be sure to keep your regular diet and not just those things in particular :)

All kinds of good stuff you can make with that.
