I read of this baby study (which could have been replicated ethically, I am
sure) many years ago and have validated it in my own experience:  when I
get short of some nutrient I start eating foods that supply it.  This is
esp. true of green things:  after some time of not eating them, when I do
my brain rewards me with great taste, far more than I usually experience
with that food.  The next day the same food does taste anything special - I
have gotten the nutrients I needed.

"You know, I think I'd like some  ________."  And you have no idea where
this came from.  And when you do eat it, it is esp. good.

Have you had these experiences before?
