I have been having a wierd craving for over 6 months. I have craved cornstarch! I know that is wierd but I don't know why. If anyone have any theories or suggestions please let me know. By the way I'm not pregnant so that can be ruled out.

as we communicate it really is fried pepperoni. it really is straightforward reason often i do no longer even like it on pizza. also, I honestly must have a by no ability-ending grant of sharp cheddar cheese or I lose it. contained in the first trimester, I had to have narrow jims and darkish chocolate. Thank God those cravings went away. i exploit to understand a lady who craved kitty clutter even as she become pregnant. I honestly have heard of that, yet ewww.

It's called Pica... and it's defined as strong cravings for non-food items such as dirt, ashes, clay, chalk, ice, laundry starch, baking soda, soap, toothpaste, paint chips, plaster, wax, hair, coffee grounds, and even cigarette butts.

when you crave something it is because your body is telling you it needs a certain nutrient that desired thing has. in your case it could be sugar.
