    I heard a program once about how deprivation causes cravings, and
    fixations on the item lacked... the brain focuses on the "missing" thing
    to an obsession... whether it be physical or emotional... kinda made sense... For you, having it in the freezer tells your brain that it is available, so the craving isn't necessary... :)

    Makes sense.
    I recall how there have been times I'll see something at the store
    and think I might try that. And a few days later thinking I should
    have whatever that was, only to learn I had looked at the product but didn't buy it. :)

    The tricks the brain can play on one... I suppose it's probably better
    to not buy it and think you had, than to buy it and forget you had (and
    find it ages later, totally nasty)... <G>
