Poll- Strange cravings

myafoo

Have you had any strange (or strange for you) food cravings this pregnancy and if so what was it?  How early on did you begin having weird cravings?

Just curious!

Per my post below- cold meatloaf sandwich.  Today was the first time I ever experienced such a thing. 

It's strange for me because I hardly ever eat red meat and I haven't had meatloaf in like 17 years.

Nothing super weird, but I could not get enough of oranges and clementines in the first few weeks.  McDonald's cheeseburgers (or the doubles, but not the quarter pounders) were a mainstay until last week when someone posted about that McDs in NJ that closed because of worms.  And lately I crave sugar a lot.

I've been craving fruit constantly, but I don't find that all that weird, since I've always liked fruit!  Otherwise nothing so far!

Nothing too weird.  I craved salmon from a few days before my BFP all throughout the first tri.  I've only had it a few times though.  My cravings tend more to be that some food pops in my head and I have to have it ASAP.

My cravings started almost right away, just like with DD. Mostly it's cravings for things I don't normally like, like green olives and mayonaise. I've also had a hankering for Taco Bell, which I normally go out of my way NOT to eat. It's very strange!

I haven't really had an cravings. I mean the other day I HAD to have a Big Mac so I did get one but that's about it. Oh and the past couple weeks I've been NEEDING carbinated drinks (sprite, coke). So maybe these are cravings but nothing crazy - and just recently.

Toaster Strudels... I know right?  I haven't had those since I was 12, and to boot they are way sweeter than I remember.  Chocolate milk is the other strange add on for me. lol.

Mine lately has been salt and vinegar chips.  No clue why, but I liked them before so I am not going to complain.  I just have to drink enough water to compensate for the salt!

hmm my only really odd one lasted a bit over a week and ALL I wanted was blue candy/drinks/snowballs.  They HAD to be blue.  Thank god im over that now considering the GD diet I just started :-(

Fruit right know, and Chick Fil A!  I had a complete aversion to chicken my whole first tri and now I would eat Chick Fil A every day if I could. 

Also, tomatoes.  I have always liked tomatoes, but I am eating them raw, in sandwiches, in salsa, pretty much in any form, all the time.

I can go for pickles with a slice of cheese on a cracker. It is strange for me b/c I do not normally eat pickles or cheese.  I can go though a hunk of cheese and a jar of pickles in about a week.  I have also had craving so snowcones :-)  I like them anyway, but now I want them ALL the time :-)!!!

I'm putting fresh chopped jalapenos on almost everything...burgers...eggs...even cottage cheese.
