What is it called (besides weird) when you crave things that arent exactly food?
The past few days I have been wanting ice chips and chalk so bad.. Im pretty sure thats abnormal..

    It's called pica. Usually it means you're deficient in a certain mineral/vitamin. Tell your doctor about it so you can have your levels checked. It's weird but common. :)

    It's your body telling you that Your lacking a mineral or vitamin .. in this case I'm almost positive its iron
