That's bull. Sometimes all I want is milk. Like, I may be thinking "I should eat [whatever else] for [some other reason than why I should drink milk]," but I figure my body is craving milk because it needs something in milk. So I drink the milk, then I'm all set. If instead of milk I had whatever else, it wouldn't be the same, and after I would still want the dam milk! Same thing with salty stuff, pasta, etc. The other day it was time for lunch and I did not want to eat anything, but I was massively craving pickle juice. Drank some, and then I could get a sammich in (w/pickles of course)
basically the heart wants what it wants, but the stomach wants what the stomach needs
