Craving generally happens wirh the thing we like. You generally dont like burnt toast but still you feel craving . So i think its a misconception. Ulcerative colitis like conditions are known to flare up during stressful conditions. There are chances that during stressful conditions you might develop craving for burnt toast and further deteriorate the ulcerative colitis. So i would like to suggest you to develop other stress management skills like meditation,yoga,regular stress releaving exercise like sweaming etc. Plz try these things,you will get definite relief .

Regards.
