I haven’t eaten meat for about three or four years or so, not for any dietary or moral reasons, we were just eating less and less and eventually gave it up entirely.

I’ve never missed it until the past few weeks when it’s all I can think about! Not sure if it’s a genuine craving or I’m just hungry and suggestible with all the Christmas food adverts on, but I really want it. I’ve read that it can be due to a lack of iron, but my vitamin has plenty in and my blood tests have been fine AFAIK. Annoyingly, the main thing I want is Brussels pâté on toast, which the NHS says you can’t have anyway.

Anyone in the same boat?
