Taco bell used to be my FAVORITE! i could eat it every day and never get tired of it. but now the smell of it alone will make me run and hide! that's not even including when i try to eat it. BLEH! boy then it's a disaster! I used to love my cheesy fiesta potatos, now i'l love to burn down every taco bell in the world hehe ;).

I'm having my 4th child in a few weeks and lately I've been craveing raw potatoes! Is this weird or what? I peel them and wash them in cold water and eat them like apples. Is this just a normal craving ? And is it ok? I havent' become sick yet but i feel like it's wierd but i can't help but to give into my cravings.

I am 14 weeks pregnant with my second baby and so far all i have been really craving is lemons and lemon juice; I will put in on EVERYTHING. I feel lucky though, last time around I had this insatiable craving for fresh dirt. I wanted to eat it (but I didn't), smell it and just rub it all over me, it was out of control.

My cravings have been for fruit juice and crushed ice. I also love the smell of cigars or cigarettes and can't seem to get enough of them! I seem to need to smell them daily. Some days the urge is stronger than others!

i'm currenty in my 15 week of pregnancy and have been having all these strange food cravings for sour cabbage, i sometimes buy and eat a whole jar plain with the juice and all.
i also get a urge to eat anything with onion and capsicum, especially if its roasted..sometimes i worry if its healthy or not, but so far it's never given me a sick feeling yet, even though everyone around the table thinks it's beyond strange.

I crave fish sandwiches with cheese and pickles only from mcdonalds. I have to have at least 3 or four a week. Earlier in my pregnancy I craved mac n chesse and tomatoes, and grass. I did'nt eat grass but that craving was satisfied with sprouts until I was advised not to eat them any more.
