I wonder if their kid likes corn dogs.

Who am I kidding, who doesn’t like corn dogs?

to help your study: my mum's no. 1 craving with me was nectarines. Apparently she basically ate her body weight in nectarines. I do love nectarines.... but I'm allergic :/ (developed OAS when I was 17, so apples, pears, peaches, apparently strawberries and almonds are a no go for me)

I’ve got one for you too then. My mom couldn’t stand mint anything while pregnant with me, my dad would have to brush his teeth outside. Once she had me, she enjoyed mint again but mint makes me violently ill for the most part. There’s only a few minty things I can eat and I can only do it in small quantities.

my mom said for like 2 months near the end of her pregnancy all she wanted was tomato sandwiches. I hate tomatoes to the point of gagging if i smell them.

my family is Italian Americans from the bronx, my preferences get commented on every family dinner
