So, the other night I had a LD where I stole someones peppermint out of her purse that she had just bought. (I know, it was weird.)

Anyway, it tasted just like the real thing.

I wonder if, once you're to the point where you can LD nearly "on demand" (I'm mostly to that point now) if you could use this as a calorie-free "diet plan". I mean, obviously it wouldn't fill you up in reality, but perhaps you could use it for a chocolate cake fix (or whatever) when you're super-craving it. That way, you'd still get the feeling of having eaten it so *maybe* you wouldn't want it as much.

OR

The reverse might be true--dreaming about it makes you want it more IRL.

What do you all think?
