Anyone really craving food you're not supposed to have?

A hot dog cart is riiiight outside and a hot dog sounds more delicious than anything has in weeks.  I guess the disease you can get from them is really rare, but it's below freezing so I wouldn't trust the cooker to get hot enough.

Anybody else craving anything that is off-limits or questionable?

  • I really really want to eat plates and plates of sushi! I've decided that I won't abstain completly (and visit my very clean favorite restaurants).  But, given that we're not supposed to eat tons of fish, I can't eat as much as I would like!

    I really like sushi and extremely rare steaks but luckily neither has sounded good lately, so no need to worry about eating it.  The only other risky foods that I've wanted are easy to find safe versions of, i.e. Caesar salad with pasteurized dressing.

  • Yes, I crave hot dogs like nothing else too.  Like, flying to Chicago from SF just to get a hot dog from my favorite place sounds like it would be worth it.

    I'm just trying to make conversation while I can't sleep.  Seriously, it's not like I was hysterical and asking if I am going die because I accidentally ate some feta.

  • I pretty much want everything I can't have. Sushi, deli meat-specifically turkey, oh and BEER!
  • Blue cheese. Oh, I want it so much every time I go to a restaurant and see a salad with blue cheese. Beer too...

  • I brought a turkey sandwich for lunch today - and I'm totally not going to "heat it to steaming" before I eat it.

    I also really want wine, and sometimes I get really sad thinking about how long I'll have to go without having a drink! Especially since we're going on a beach vacation in June Sad

    pretty much all blue cheese in the US is pasteurized and fine. If you're worried, ask, but it's most likely just fine.

  • Beer.

    I have eaten a hot dog.  From a legit hot dog restaurant. (well, as legit as a hot dog restaurant can be) It was divine.

  • Sushi! I did have a shrimp tempura roll and a california roll on NYE. Yummy, not too much seafood, and not raw, so at least it satisfied some of my cravings! Although I could really handle a tuna roll! Nom nom nom.

  • I've been wanting a sandwich with deli meats for over a month now, so yesterday I had one.  Moderation is key, I'm thinking.

  • I want vodka like you wouldn't believe.  And I want lobster really bad too.  I honestly would like them together as well--Raspberry Stoli and sprite with lobster mac and chese :)  That sounds like heaven to me right now!

  • You can absolutely have lobster! Go enjoy that, but skip the vodka Wink

    I still eat sushi when pregnant, even the raw stuff. The worst that can happen is you'll get food poisoning and I make sure to go to a reputable place. I avoid high mercury fish though. My problem is I still feel so nauseous that nothing ever sounds good...all I eat right now is carbs. Blech.

  • Sushi.....like I could eat it right now!!  (at10:30 am)  And BEEEEEEER.  I gave in to the sushing craving last week and it was delicious!!

    That's what I think too... moderation and probably not buying food from street vendors. 

  • I have been eating lunch meat for a few days now. Without heating it. SINNER!!

    I figure as long as its not slimy, greenish or funky smelling, I'm probably ok. 

  • I would LOVE a turkey sandwich right now.
