It was so strange. And it was all because I was so low on iron. Weird, huh? As soon as I started taking iron supplements, the whole craving vanished.
Btw, can anyone explain how being low on iron could make someone want to chew ice? I really don't understand it at all.
at least where i grew up, the well water had tons of iron. not sure if you grew up on well water or not, but that would explain why you crave frozen water when low on iron.
our well water (apparently) tasted like blood it was so iron rich. took me forever to get used to the taste of city water.
i can't stand the idea of living on ground / street level, including houses. (spent most of my life in apartments, and the only exception to that .. living extremely only in the upper level of an old house). i'd be too scared to sleep in any room that is on hte ground level.
You do know that when measuring girth you're supposed to stop when the tape meets itself? You're not supposed to keep wrapping it around and around the thing until it's covered.
Chewing ice is a very common symptom of iron deficiency. IIRC, no one knows why, but there is some indication it has something to do with the cells in the mouth.
The whole ice chewing/sexual frustration is BS.
Oh, and supposedly it can cause small cracks in the teeth, so it is not a good thing to do.
i've never heard that iron deficiency thing...interesting.
i still love playing with hot wheels
i don't like receiving gifts.
i make all of my own bread
i despise vanity, nice cars, large houses, and indulgences
i refuse not to get the best deal and have never paid retail for anything other than food. this is a compulsion to the point of spending 5 minutes choosing a tub of butter or a can of fruit in the grocery store.

My little known things - I take off all my clothes when I go for a poo; I have an extreme fear (that comes and goes) of my teeth falling out/breaking. I had one nightmare where they were crumbling in my mouth and growing through my face at the same time...

Scott - I haven't laughed as hard in months as I did at your post.

Chewing ice is a sign of sexual frustration according to my sex-ed teacher.
