Its a rare eating disorder. Your body is looking for ways to get a certain mineral into it. I know some women it it but what in the world does it taste like? Good luck darlin'. Definitely go see your doctor about that?

That's a condition called Pica. You really need to talk to your doctor about it!

I've heard of that before. I have a weird cement/rock craving lol like when I go down into a basement and it smells like moldy cement I can't get enough. Home Depot kinda smells like that and when I go in there I just walk around and breathe it in as deep as I can. But sometimes I get the urge to smell it when I'm home and there's nothing like that to smell here. I've also had a couple other weird things I liked the smell of but wouldn't breathe them in because its bad for you - chlorine tablets for the pool, nail polish remover, and I had this weird urge to lick a rock the other day. I know that sounds crazy. Don't worry, I didn't do it lol
