I always do , and it's really weird, but if I'm eating some chocolate dessert at lunch, I always have to have chips / pretzels afterward -- the chocolate gives me a craving for salt.

Anyone else get this or am I just weird?
 
No, but I do get pain cause by stomach acid leaking into my esophagus due to the relaxed esophageal sphincter that chocolate causes

Chocolate covered pretzels FTW!

I prefer to pop a couple of peanut M&Ms in my mouth, then a mini pretzel. Chocolate + peanut + pretzel > chocolate covered pretzels.

Who the hell thinks of stuff like this?

Under no circumstances does a normal mind combine chocolate chip cookies, maple syrup, and bacon.

What are you talking about? The entire purpose of human kind is to think of ways to make awesome things even more awesome.

I don't have an intense craving, but definitely a craving. Chocolate with salty stuff or the other way around, doesn't matter. I now need to have and intense desire to run on a treadmill. 🙂

Are you a chick, you could be PMSing. 😉

Or it could be you aren't getting enough water.

Or it could be a common deficiency in some other mineral, magnesium, potassium, etc and the chocolate throws it further off balance. [Most folks don't get enough healthy minerals in their diet, read up on it].
