Yes, cheese is delicious, but as we all know, it can also be bad for our waistline to eat in large amounts. But can cheese also be addictive?
Even though you might find yourself having cheese cravings, fortunately you cannot become addicted to cheese. While cheese does contain proteins called casomorphins, which are chemically related to known addiction pathways in the brain, any cravings you may have are purely behavioral, not biological (unlike with alcohol).
So go ahead and give in to your cheese cravings once in a while—without worrying that you might become an addict!
