Food Cravings!

[LoftyLottie]

All this talk of food on JJ's thread made me think of cravings during pregnancy.

Any weird ones to confess?

[LoftyLottie]

Mine was mint sauce on absolutely everything.

[sadielady]

No food cravings, just the smell of petrol

[China Doll]

Well not pregnancy ones but I did have a bit of a phase of putting homous and/or thai dipping sauce (hot one not the original which is for wimps) on everything for a while there.

My sister-in-law used to eat sponges, actually eat them...

[ummmm]

Smash and beans. Then I would promptly puke it up...

[NoMercy]

I get cravings every now and again - even though I don't have a bun in the oven. It's mostly curry cravings with me.

[LoftyLottie]

Funnily I also drank pints of milk and I absolutely hated it before and after pregnancy. (not laced with mint sauce though fortunately!!)

[redcrx]

i didnt really have any weird ones. I ate way too many McMuffins and drank too many milkshakes though. Oh and loved pickled beetroot.

I heard of one woman who went into a panic when, after fighting urge for months, ate some pot pourri!

[LoftyLottie]

Oh barb, the smell of petrol makes me heave - always has done.

[funnygirl]

I am the same as barb. It was the smell of certain things like perfume.
I used to sit clutching a bottle and sniffing away.

[ummmm]

If I don't eat veg for a few days I start craving it.

[LoftyLottie]

That sounds really good actually vibra. I love vinegar!!

[ChuckFickens]

if I don't eat lady veg for a few days I start craving it too :)

[LoftyLottie]

Just thought, I wonder if me eating loads of mint sauce and vinegar during pregnancy is the reason why my son absolutely hates both!!!

[redcrx]

could be, Lotty. Though i went right off mushrooms in my first pregnancy and little CRX hates them

[joggerjayne]

As a non-parent, I'll just make the tea and cakes for this thread.

[sadielady]

It does me now but when I was pregnant I used to offer to take all the family cars to get them filled up with petrol......surprisingly I did have a healthy baby who hasnt turned into a petrol head!

[LoftyLottie]

Carrot cake please JJ with a lovely cream cheese filling and a large cup of steamy black coffee. Thanks.

[dizmouk2009]
