The funny thing is, for me, the low carb food is vastly more palatable.

When I am hungry and tuck into a nice rib-eye with blue cheese dressing and buttered broccoli I am thrilled. This is so tasty! Much more so than the food I ate before. I realized the "tastiness" I was craving was in the sauce, not the grain product I put it on. Putting the sauce on vegetables or eggs is more satisfying, not less.

This lady getting thrilled about pasta? That's the dopamine hitting her brain... not the exquisiteness of what is, after all, wallpaper paste.
