Roger,

I don't think that the craving was set off because I enjoyed the bar, since
I enjoy the rich, dark chocolate flavor of the Lindt much, much more than I
do the faint chocolate flavor of the Zcarb bar, yet it doesn't set off
cravings.

There's something about that cool tingliness. I noticed the same effect
with Velamints. They were only a gram or so, but they filled my mouth with
that tingle and sure enough I'd end up eating more and more and then be
hungry.

You don't suppose that might be because you....you.....you enjoyed it,
huh?
