I tend to crave them more then. I just want something to eat they comforts me and is quick and easy to eat.

@Fauxmyope2 I crave them regardless. 😅 Unless I have a fever that sends me directly to bed.

I'm not a sweets fan anyway. I do avoid sodas more. They taste weird when sick.

@KickfaceK I don't drink them at all but I noticed there's a tea I can only drink when I'm sick. 😀

@CrazyMusicLover i wish i didn't drink them. I have tried to quit repeatedly with no luck. *sigh*

Hell no, when I feel like crap I need my comfort food even more.

Hot Lemon 🍋 with honey 🍯 is a soothing remedy

@SW-User I used to drink tea with lemon juice and honey as a kid but later I noticed that honey irritated my throat even more. :/

No, although I know I'm supposed to.

CrazyMusicLover · 31-35

@exexec Same. As soon as I feel better I just can't resist.

I avoid food altogether

CrazyMusicLover · 31-35

@SW-User Even with a cold or just a mild throat infection?

I avoid them anyway (diabetic).

CrazyMusicLover · 31-35

@bijouxbroussard I wish my father would too. :/

@CrazyMusicLover It’s not easy. I learned how to prepare treats that are lower carb and sweetened with stevia or monk fruit. And I eat those sparingly.
