It's not a myth.  I was born with low b12.  For the last 12,13 years I've been chewing ice several times a day.  I craved it all the time.  I got my iron checked again and it was at 7, up from 4 but my ice cravings were crazy.  I've been taking iron pills for over 2 months and stopped craving ice after 2 weeks of starting my iron pills.  I don't think it's a wise idea to tell people health concerns are a myth.  I've been to doctors, specialists and was overed nloid transfusions for my low iron problem.   I turned down the transfusions and waited 12 years to take care of my iron problem.  Since then not one single craving.

If your chewing on ice it means you have low iron.  Buy some over the counter iron pills and take them daily.  After about 1,2 weeks you won't crave ice anymore. xxoo.

I chew ice ALL the time. I've been told it's a sign if low iron which could mean being anemic,  but I used to chew ice before I got pregnant and when the doc did my glucose test, she said my iron levels were fine and I wasn't anemic,  so I think it's a myth lol

Ice cream! It's hot where I live, I could honestly eat ice cream as a main meal. Also anything tomato based. Like spaghetti and meatballs. Or a hamburger... Or anything really. Hahahaha
