Bet your wrong. First, I  know that I had spontenious cravings for two 
named commodities above and it  was my *learned* cultural response 
against one that I don't use it  (mayonnaise).

Actually, Waistline, I think your would be right if you  said that 
humanity has no INNATE cravings... many cravings are in fact  
"spontaneous". Only sugar is innately built into mammals. I can remember  
STILL when I had lobster the first time.  You don't need to have a  
'culture' to rouse the taste buds, especially when dipped in butter...I  
think the 'cravings' are almost all spontaneous.
