    WOW the S&V chips have been popular! I had this a week ago. Was at work and wanted them so badly... nobody knows I'm pregnant yet though lol I ate half a big bag, would have kept going but the inside of my mouth couldn't keep up. Been wanting lots of plain milk.
    Apple slice is another I've really really wanted! But luckily I want it from my old bakery and that is impossible to get.

    But lately I've just really wanted home made pasta salad and potato salad, but have been unsure of the recommendations of these so have restrained

    I love the idea of sucking the sour bit off and spitting out the lolly. I don't actually want the lolly, I just want the sour bit. The sourer the better!! Water lily, I'm going to do that know, in the knowledge that there is someone else out there doing the same.

    Has anyone noticed a similar line through this post. It's tartness. Sour and Salt/Vinegar. What is with that? Do we just need to go out and buy ourselves great big horse licks?

    My confession is jatz crackers - I'm going through a pack a day! It's a bad habit, but I need it to feel slightly less terrible with my morning sickness (all day sickness really). I eat about 4 every half hour. Not good!

    I also love cheese and crackers right now...with tomato and olives if available...
    the weird thing is, before being pregnant I was a real sweet tooth...especially for chocolate, but now, except for odd moments, the thought of chocolate makes me feel queasy and I've hardly been eating it..DH can't believe it

    I also crave hot chips a lot...so far I havent had any, but I am going to crack soon, I keep thinking about them!

    oh this is a bit weird even for me who used to eat whole lemons with my 1st pg...today i cut up a whole cucumber and put it in a bowl of brown vinegar...i think the cucumber is just the means of getting that delicious vinegery taste without actually swilling it straight out of the bottle. mmmm

    i can easily eat a large packet of S&V chips in one sitting.

    now i am realy bad at deciding, so i had one small bag of twisties and one small bag of 'cheese n bacon' balls in one sitting.

    all this is while DP is not around!!

    I'm so embarrassed to admit this but for me right now it's: S/V chips, Gobstoppers, Polish Dill Pickles, popcorn (although that's a constant in my life) and... RED WINE.

    Of course I'm not drinking the red wine - although DP did allow me 2 capfuls one night last week when I was bawling like a baby because "I just can't live without a sip - why do you hate me so much? YOU did this to me you jerk".

    I used to drink red wine before but only in winter - never in the heat that Melb is experiencing at the moment but I currently have a bottle that's been open since last week that I sniff when the mood strikes. The more off the bottle is, the better. And I don't want to taste it - just want to smell it.

    Apparently my mum was the same way when she was pregnant with me - she even stashed off bottles around the house to get her 'fix' although when my dad found them she had to basically swear on a Bible that she wasn't drinking them, merely smelling them.

    Now that I've put this into words, I'm even more humiliated. What 34-year-old woman craves the smell of vinegary, putrid red wine? So shameful.
