Everyone (unfortunately) likes junk food whether pregnant or not, so it should come as no surprise that by far the top item on our Top 10 Pregnancy Cravings List is junk food.   Candy, chips, and soda were too generic for our moms though.  They asked for brand names like Sour Skittles, Doritos and Dr. Pepper.

Cookies

But not just any cookie.  Again,  these were usually requested in specific flavors like Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies or Oreos.   Oh the poor woman who craved Girl Scout Cookies in the summertime!

Anything Cold

Lots of ice-creams made the list as well as Slurpees, Frosties, and even just plain ice.  Surprise!  These were often craved in a specific flavor such as Cheesecake Blizzard.

Pickles

Not surprisingly, pickles showed up as a common menu item on the craving pregnant mother’s list.

Peanut Butter

Peanut butter was often craved in conjunction with something else.  Facebook Fan Jennifer Smith said, “Peanut butter and banana sandwiches… and of course, pickles!”

Fruit

Although our moms craved many different kinds of fruit, watermelon showed up as a clear favorite. Belinda Vogels said, “I loved fruit, fruit, and more fruit!” and Amanda Halvorson mentioned specifically “wet fruit.”

Vegetables

Things like green olives, pepper rings, and salads found their way more than once onto your list. And did we mention pickles?

Fast Food

Although many fast food restaurants were mentioned, Subway topped the list. Other brands included McDonalds, especially their French fries, and Dairy Queen.   I had a friend who ate a Whopper a day during her pregnancy.

Everything

Blanca Rosa Rivera-Rodriguez shared, “Nothing in particular – I ate it all!”

Milk

Naturally, milk was sometimes craved together with other strange side dishes such as … you guessed it .. Pickles!
