Craving fatty meat during a fast?

I just finished a 77 hour fast. The only food I really craved was fatty meat. Like a very fatty grilled steak or pork belly. Haven’t really craved anything else like pizza or tacos that I normally like. I do like meat too, but haven’t craved it like this. I had even been watching grilling videos!

Anyone else ever experience this or have any insight as to why you think it may be?

Answer

Yeah I’ve experienced that before too. I’ve always wondered if perhaps it’s because we’re using ketones for energy, and our body somehow knows that ketones are from burning fats, so we subconsciously crave fatty foods.
