[quote=briansd1]Ok, so this past weekend I visited some friends with 10-month old twins.
It’s very interesting how the babies cry out for the bread rather than other food. Just showing them the bread instantly satisfies them.
So I do agree that there are physiological aspects to food cravings.
It looks like, as a society, we are are condemning our children to obesity by addicting them to sugar at a young age.
For those who are too heavy, can the willpower to lose weight and stay healthy overcome the addiction to food?[/quote]
That’s how babies communicate, B. It could have been a toy, a hug, a blanket or a diaper change that they were after. In this case, they wanted bread(probably to teethe on as much as satisfy an addictive type preference). If they were thirsty they would have cried until they got those squawk boxes plugged with a breast or a bottle.Of course, injesting liquid would prove that they are budding alcoholics, especially if they were of Irish decent.
