Here are a few of the foods that I have become particularly fond of during pregnancy:
Bread. I always loved bread, but I crave it allll the time now.
Cottage cheese. This is a more recent one. I started eating it because I felt like I needed some more healthy snacks (see pictures below...) and just started eating it with almost every meal.
Whole. Dill. Pickles. mmm. These were mainly in the first trimester, and I loved them so much that I had to exercise self control to not eat more than one a day (though I gave in sometimes) because I think each pickle had a weeks worth of sodium.
That's right, FLAMING HOT CHEETOS! I ate a bag of these almost every day in high school with a Dr. Pepper. Stephen thought these were the grossest thing I ever asked for...then a few days later...he was hooked too. They are addictive. I have to ration these or I'll eat the whole bag in one sitting. I also have to set limits for myself, like one bag a month, because these add absolutely no nutritional value to my diet. Plus I think they give me pretty bad heartburn. At least a pickle doesn't have any calories.
And last but not least, corn dogs. Stephen and I discovered about a month ago that the gas station on the corner has a corn dog and a coke for $1.99. Incredible! They aren't actually corn dogs...but they are in the same family- just no stick- and that's what the gas station calls them. The funny thing is, I caught Stephen red handed this week when I got into my car to the aroma of mustard, cause he left the wrapper from his corn dog/coke fix. Turns out, he had been stopping in for an afternoon snack SEVERAL times, and he didn't even get me one!
I understand the bread and the flamin hot Cheetos, but cottage cheese and pickles, gross. But I have never been a fan of dill pickles nor of cottage cheese. I can't get enough bread, in fact Texas Roadhouse rolls sound really good right now.
