My cravings are starting! With DD, I always craved mac and cheese with bean burritos. Now all I want to eat is cereal, Coco Puffs and Cinnamon Toast Crunch to be specific.I ate cereal for lunch and dinner yesterday
(and yes, I cooked my family a "normal" dinner)
What are YOU craving??

I eat mac and cheese ALL the time. One gal I work with teases me about having Easy Mac so often. I had to tell her it's because it sounds and tastes good.
I was craving ranch bugles the other day. Normal bugles are good, too, though.
Oh, and I am now obsessed with Cocoa Puffs cereal. I had it for lunch with a couple of pieces of toast. It was amazing.
You can eat hot dogs, as long as you cook them and they are natural and nitrate free. I had 2 last night, the Applegate Farms brand from Whole Foods. They are uncured, without nitrates/nitrites, and your listeria risk is non-existent if they're heated to 160 degrees, just like lunch meat. They also make bacon and a whole variety of lunch meats you can eat without the preservatives.
I've been craving cantaloupe, so I had a huge one this morning.
Oh that sounds sooooo good right now. I haven't had specific cravings. Occasionally something sounds really good, but it's not what I would call a craving. To me, a craving is something you want all the time and you can't think about anything else.
Just FYI - while Applegate Farms does not add pure nitrites - they add concentrated celery juice. Celery has a natural form of nitrates and adding it can actually add more nitrites than just adding a small amount of chemical nitrite. (see this: https://www.good.is/post/your-nitrite-free-meats-are-full-of-nitrites/).
That being said - I personally think nitrites in moderation are okay and will be having some regular bacon with dinner tonight.
Ugh today I can't keep anything down, normally though, sour stuff, like salt and vinegar chips, sour patch kids, and orange juice. Also lots of dairy products.
Also, just so you know. I totally just went and made mac and cheese and am eating it right now
Most things that are outlawed while pregnant are ok in moderation, you have to look at the levels in which they are unsafe and the frequency of it actually causing a problem. If you are out somewhere and eat a hot dog your baby isn't going to be born with 5 arms. If you exclusively eat hot dogs it may cause an issue.
LOL
With DD it was Fuji Apples (it could ONLY be Fuji) and Clementines.
2nd was milk, that was pretty much it.
This one is milk and chocolate chip waffles - I went though a box of 10 of them this weekend :O
