(1) I'M CRAVING ...
For example, when you're pregnant, you crave a lot of things. You don't have to use it only when you are pregnant, you can say it all the time when you really want to eat something.

(2) I'M IN THE MOOD FOR ...
This phrase is light and fun. You can use it when talking about the food or something that you are willing to do.

(3) I FEEL LIKE ...
You've probably learnt this one but don't use it quite often. This phrase means a spontaneous desire for something.

(4) I REALLY FANCY ...
This is similar to “I feel like,” but this phrase is mostly used in the UK.

(5) I COULD REALLY DO WITH ...
This phrase is almost like “I need.”

(6) I'D KILL FOR ...
When you really really really want something and you're talking to a friend, you can use this phrase to express your desire.

(7) I'M DYING FOR ...
This one is pretty much the same as “I’d kill for…” You often hear people using both these phrases for things they’re addicted to.

(8) I'M UP FOR ...
This phrase is really useful. Use this phrase when you are open to something but you are not committing to it. For example, somebody asks you to do something for them and you can reply with "I'm up for it."
