BELLY LAUGHS
Cravings Gone Wild
THE FOODIES “Mine wasn’t too weird, but it was specific. I would always crave a McDonald’s ice cream cone with a large Coke. It had to be McDonald’s.” – Kayla V. “I once dipped pickles into whipped cream. I don’t know why, but at the time, it felt like a stroke of genius!” – Jessica H. “Hot Cheetos in chocolate pudding was my go-to snack during pregnancy.” – Emily T. “Buddy the Elf knew what he was doing when he combined spaghetti with syrup. At the time, it was the perfect mix of sweet and savory, and now I can’t even think about it!” – Megan F. “I would always crave salt with watermelon and chocolate ice cream.” – Joyce M. “Milk, and I never liked milk before then.” – Jamie R. “Chinese food and mashed potatoes!” – Claire S. “I once ate an entire jar of olives and then had chocolate cake after.” – Kelly T. OUT-OF-THE-FRIDGE MOMS “I craved dirt. Like actual dirt. I never ate it though.” – Amanda G. “The urge to chew on rubber bands was strong. Also ice.” – Jessica R. “I couldn’t stop craving sand. I tell myself it’s because I love the beach so much.” – Lisa M. “I wanted to eat sponges, but I never did. Maybe it was the idea of the texture?” – Christina S. “The smell of cleaning products, not for eating, just smelling.” – Karen C.
