Food cravings

So what I’ve noticed is I crave cigarettes more after certain foods that I eat . Did this happen to anyone else ? Like chili , or a burger .

I craved a cigarette after almost EVERYTHING I ate - because that was always my association.

I would suggest you limit those foods for a bit until you are a bit further into your quit if you see them presenting more of a challenge to your commitment.

I still need a little something sweet after most meals to get rid of that sensation.

Afraid I can't say any particular food either.  It was any food.

It seems to be red meat for me . In any form . The craving is stronger after I eat read meat .

I craved a cigarette after every meal including snacks. I craved a cigarette pretty much 20 minutes after I put the last 1 out no matter what I was doing.

It will get easier . My craving leading up to me quitting were insanely strong . I was smoking more than I usually smoked . I’m going on week 3 and they still come but not as often and they range in intensity.

Maybe skip those certain foods that trigger you until you've got a little more time under your belt?  As with the others, I craved after ALL food, even a carrot stick!  lol
