What is Craveable food? It’s just what it says, food that you crave. The term "craving" however, hardly does justice to that four-alarm fire raging in your brain. Must.... have.... warm brownie still gooey in the middle. Must....eat.... entire container of Super Fudge Chunk. Can't...stop...scarfing down chocolate kisses. We've all been there. Cravings are a fact of life: up to 97 percent of Americans get seized by strong and specific urges to indulge. And for women in the U.S., chocolate tops the list. It seems like there's nothing to do but either fight off the cravings or give in to them. Mostly, we give in, figuring it's hopeless—a simple biological fact of life.

Since everyone has a different food they Crave at different times, we make sure we place all the classic craveables like pizza, burgers, mashed potatoes, and steak sandwiches (and yes, warm brownies) on the daily menu, but we also have created a whole new class of Craveable items that make an appearance on the menu periodically, as to not lose that “special” event feeling. Our favorite type of Craveable food is usually “Comfort Food”. Who doesn't love comfort food, especially in the dead of winter? We all have a few whose smells and textures evoke a cozy, safe, nesting feel. When we walk in a room and smell a meatloaf cooking or apple pie in the oven, they bring back childhood memories.
