Increasing the protein in your diet will help reduce/eliminate sugar cravings. A teaspoon of peanut butter, almond butter, or an individual carton of yogurt, or a small serving of walnuts, almonds or pistachios.

When I used to go in restrictive diets in the past, I used to crave peanut butter.

I slowly cut out bread and I limit myself to the lower salt chips to once a week.....feel so much better....
Put a potato chip next to a cookie near me, and I will put the potato chip on top of the cookie and shove both into my mouth!

I really doubt the starving little children in other countries would agree with this statement.

Note what I bolded in SeaMaiden's post. She said "the world". Starving people would love bread and sugar. It is also OK in moderation. I eat bread every day (like Oprah LOL) and I am losing on WW.

I'm not a big bread eater. I throw out more bread than I eat. Hubby eats bread with meals, the only time I do is with beef stew.
I do eat stuff with sugar in it tho, but I don't crave it. Once in awhile I'll want a donut or a candy bar. I don't keep it or chips in the house.

Bread and rice all turn to sugar in the bloodstream.

In countries that eat white rice as a staple there is more incidents of stomach cancer.

Yes and rice contains dangerous levels of arsenic, cadmium, selenium and other toxic substances.
