Is it normal to go nuts with making food sometimes?

I'm usually a normal person. I eat normal stuff and all that. The thing I want to know if anyone else does is I sometimes (about every 2-5 months) go nuts for a certain food. I mean nuts as in I can be completely normal one day and the next I end up making the largest casserole pot I have full of Jello Jiggers. I can be absolutely fine and then before I know it I end up cooking three pounds of bacon, turning my kitchen into a mess trying to make egg noodles, or attempting to make stock pots of tea. They are random and fleeting and I usually notice the signs of when it is going to strike (alone, depressed, bored) and then away I go into full blown mania mode.I tend to enjoy the periods and I did come away with a new recipe for fruit loop pancakes but I wondered if this was a common occurrence.

    Have you ever gone nuts for nuts?

  • After a big shop for groceries, I'll normally feel inspired to put a lot of energy into making all sorts of grand food concoctions.

    I wonder why your bursts of food creativity come during times of isolation and depression. Do you do it to take your mind off of things?

    Nah, I just have a bunch of egg recipes. I stick to a few foods but do go crazy experimenting sometimes. Not as crazy as you though.

    I am kinda sorta like that. I'll get all these ideas of things to make and I'll cook like a maniac for days or weeks. I love cooking and experimenting and sharing with people. Usually comes out awesome. I must say I'm a bit disgusted by the thought of froot loop pancakes though. They smell like barf to me.
