Really wanting what I can't have.

This was bad with my pregnancy with DD, too. I crave the foods I can't have the most! I want lots of raw sushi, oysters on the half shell, espresso, feta cheese, rare steaks...

The only thing I don't want is alcohol of any kind. Whatsoever. The thought makes me want to puke. Ick!

Anyone else queen of wanting what you can't have?

Re: Really wanting what I can't have.

  • Bleu Cheese! I love bleu cheese and hate that I can't have it!
  • Loading the player...
  • Hotdogs and lunch meat for me.  I don't even eat either very often when I'm not pregnant!
  • Good news on the soft cheese front. I heard from my friend at the health department that restaurants (at least the ones in GA) have to use pasteurized cheese by law. So feta, blue, queso blanco are safe in Georgia...might be in your states, too. I'd check with the health departments.
  • You can definitely have feta cheese! You just have to make sure it's pasteurized (which most feta in the U.S. is.)

  • Spiked eggnog...NO clue as to why but it sounds so good right now. We made it last year with some vanilla run and it was so yummy. I'll just have to wait and settle for the Turkey Hill or Edy's Eggnog ice cream. At least I can have that.
  • Yep -- I would love to have a hotdog or a bologna sandwich right now!  And you know what -- I just might.

    OMG. Eggnog. We can add that to my list...but the ice cream sounds delish!

  • Yes, sushi!  I just get a Cali roll and green salad with the ginger dressing.  But, I sooo miss sushi.

    I seriously stock up on it when it's out so I can have it past the holiday season.

  • I would love a nice spicy bloody mary.  :)  I had a virgin one a couple weekends ago and it held me over for a while.
  • There have been many, many days were I would give almost anything for a glass of wine.

    you can have blue cheese. 

    Seriously?! I thought it was one of the soft cheeses we couldn't have?! 

  • A good roast beef sandwich.  We bought some medium roast beef from the deli the other day and I heated it in the microwave not realizing it would cook more :(  it got rubbery and just didn't hit the spot.  I'm also scared to eat Arbys after someone posted on here that they sometimes cut corners cooking the roast beef there.

    Also, seared tuna.

    Me too. At the restaurant we ate at this weekend I saw a waiter carrying a glass of wine to a nearby table and I think I drooled.

  • Yes! Bloody Mary! Oh that sounds good. I want real sushi; I'll take the cooked but I want the real stuff. Its really the only food I'm deliberately avoiding.

  • A glass of cherry wine, tuna (and I know it is safe in moderation, but I am talking I want tuna for every meal seven days a week), Advil.  But the Advil is just because it would make my back quit aching.

    I thought that as long as the soft cheeses were pasteurized we could eat them...

  • I want a giant frozen Coke (I know I could have a small one, but I cannot use moderation when it comes to frozen Coke).

    I was craving margaritas something awful the other day.  I have one maybe once a year.

    Last but not least, cherry beer from Founder's Brewery...mmm...

    This, in a bad way. Cheesecake Factory does make a fabulous, spicy Virgin Mary that makes you forget there's no vodka there.

    Yes.  As long as the cheese is made from pasteurized milk, it's safe to eat.  Most soft cheeses you'll buy in a regular grocery store will be made from pasteurized milk.

  • Beer. That is really all. Just a beer. X1000. LOL.

    My OB said that sushi is fine as long as its made at a place that is trustworthy.  In her words, "Women in Japan have healthy babies and they eat sushi all the time, not to mention the women are healthier than most Americans."
