Craving fried food

Amanda
Hi there! I am 8 weeks pregnant and have always been a really healthy eater. In the last few weeks however, I am craving food that I normally never eat. All I want is fried eveything!! Fries, fish and chips, Mac and cheese, pizza, chicken nuggets, you name it. 
​
​I thought our bodies were suppose to crave nutrients it needs but now I am almost repulsed by vegetables that used to be a staple in my diet! Anyone else experiencing this?

My mom told me today that she craved fried comfort foods when pregnant with me... Fried chicken, mac & cheese, mashed potatoes, creamed corn (we're Southern), etc. I think it's pretty common!

Yes, I too have been craving the less healthy versions of things! Chicken strips instead if grilled chicken etc. Hoping it will pass when my "all day sickness" is past!
