A Pregnancy Trope. During any pregnancy, at some point the mother will experience cravings — however, they will never be cravings for any standard foodstuff (such as pickles, ice cream, etc), but will instead be cravings for the most hilariously inappropriate and mismatched foods (chocolate-covered kippers, boiled eggs and ice cream, peanut butter-dipped pickles, etc). Bonus points are awarded if the woman craves something that is (a) extremely difficult if not physically impossible to find; (b) isn't actually food or (c) both. The trope often involves the father being roped into visiting late-night markets at 3 AM in search of that particular brand of pickled radishes and pistachio-flavored ice cream. Usually, this state of affairs will result in the father being stretched to breaking point to find the necessary goods... only to find, when he returns home, that the mother no longer craves it (usually without so much as a "thank you for traveling across five states and climbing a mountain to get it"). A case of Truth in Television — some women actually do crave inedible things or unusual foods during pregnancy — but it tends to be exaggerated in fiction. In many cases, a woman doesn't even have to be pregnant. Some are prone to wild cravings during "that time of the month," to the confusion of any men present. This is probably a milder form of a condition known as "pica"; those afflicted with full-blown pica will crave all sorts of bizarre stuff 24/7, regardless of gender. Compare the Extreme Omnivore, someone who always eats this way (e.g. the aforementioned full-blown pica). A rarer variant of this trope is where the "wackiness" of the cravings has less to do with the substance desired and more with the sheer quantity desired. In this form of wacky craving, the comedy is how "eating for two" turns into something more like "eating for two dozen", where the pregnant woman becomes a voracious glutton who uses her pregnancy as an excuse to eat like a pig, thus turning even the primmest and most diet-minded expectant woman into a shameless Big Eater. This may be a sign that Pregnancy Makes You Crazy. To a lesser extent, this also belongs to All Periods Are PMS. |

This is particularly notable since Brennan in the past has stated that she disliked pie due to her distaste for cooked fruit, while Sweets had suggested that Booth's attempts to get Brennan to eat a slice of pie were a form of subtle seduction. | |

In V (1983), Robin craves red meat to the point that she wakes in the night and yanks it uncooked from the refrigerator to eat. However, this is implied to be due to her being pregnant with a child of the secretly reptilian Visitors rather than the usual version. In the 2009 remake V (2009), Valerie (also pregnant with a hybrid), almost eats a mouse caught in a trap. | |

Discussed in Cheers when Carla was pregnant. Diane was having a roast beef sandwich for lunch and Carla sat down with her to have her lunch as well. She brings up the strange cravings pregnant women tend to have, using her lunch as an example: green olives, pimentos, and anchovies. It was ultimately subverted. Carla was really trying to make Diane lose her appetite so she could take her lunch. | |

In The Belgariad sequel series The Malloreon, during Ce'Nedra's pregnancy, she got these sorts of cravings, mainly just to mess with Belgarion. In a subversion, it was never a problem, since Garion (a sorcerer) could simply create whatever food she wanted out of thin air. The same subversion appears in the prequel novel Belgarath The Sorcerer when Poledra is pregnant with the twins. |

The Simpsons: In the 'In the Na'Vi' segment of "Treehouse of Horror XXII", Kang reveals that pregnancy is particularly difficult for females of his species as their planet has no pickles and their only ice cream is butterbrickle. Marge craved pancake mix during her pregnancies. In "Little Big Girl", Bart and his girlfriend (who is fifteen and pregnant) are driving to Utah to get married. She demands that Bart pull over and get her strawberries while they're driving through a desert. |

Kevin & Kell: During Lindesfarne's pregnancy, she craves very specific exotic insects. (Since she's a hedgehog, insects in general aren't an example of the trope.) Leona ended up craving zebra, meerkat, wildebeest, baboon, ostrich, aardvark, antelope, gazelle, warthog, and eland during her pregnancy. All at once. Pity the poor delivery driver that had to deliver all that. |

Full House: Danny suspected that Becky was pregnant before she told him, partly because she had been "living on beef jerky for the last three days." Much later in her pregnancy, Becky had a craving for sour cream and onion potato chips. By the time Jesse gets back from the market, she's changed her mind. Anticipating this, he bought "every chip known to man — the Pregnancy Variety Pack." Alas, he didn't get any with ridges... She, along with a house of other pregnant women she invited over, also starts craving watermelon. When Jesse points out that watermelon is out of season, and he'd probably have to go to Mexico to get one, Becky responds with "You've got a car." |

It turns out she's pregnant, something even she didn't know until the very end of the book. The baby, a girl named Bethany, is born in Sugar Cookie Murder. In Apple Turnover Murder Hannah realizes that Sherri Connors' earlier "flu" was actually Morning Sickness when she sees her enjoying an apple turnover dipped in mustard, with pickles on the side. |

Parodied in the "Pregnant Pause" episode of Beavis And Butthead. Beavis watches a movie about a pregnant woman and starts getting paranoid that he might be pregnant too because like her, he's experiencing stomach cramps and cravings for nachos (them being his Trademark Favorite Food and all). Later, while getting food at a convenience store, he just blindly grabs some things in his trepidation, overhears a pregnant woman say how she's been having the strangest cravings recently, and to his horror, sees the items he picked up were canned vegetables, which he takes as a sure sign that he's pregnant. As it turns out, he just needed to take a really huge dump. | |

A Diplomatic Visit: In chapter 9 of the third story, Diplomacy Through Schooling, Aria and Cadance talk about these. Cadance apparently had one for cucumber and banana slices mixed with cold rice and bleu cheese dressing, which Aria finds weird but Cadance says is good for replenishing electrolytes (and Shining Armor admits to liking it too). She'd also craved anchovy, sour cream, and steak sauce tacos at one point, which Sonata also liked. Aria and Shining Armor, however, react with disgust when they're reminded of that particular combo. Luna's mostly been craving sugar water for her pregnancy. |

In The Discreet Princess, a prince seduces two daughters of a king he hates, but the third, Finette (the one he really hates), manages to outwit him (with the added bonus of a number of injuries to him). Naturally, he holds a grudge. So, in order to draw her out of the tower where the sisters are locked, he leaves a few fruits outside, fully aware that the sisters will be begging Finette to get them these at all costs. | |

In the Pound Puppies (1980s) episode "Where Do Puppies Come From?", the expectant Lucy asks Holly and Nose Marie to make her a dog food and ice cream sundae with various unorthodox toppings. After finishing it off in one bite, she then asks them to make her another one with whipped cream added. | |

The Fairly Oddparents: While Cosmo was pregnant with Poof, he ate Timmy's collection of vintage baseball cards. Anti-Wanda eats a sandwich made of couch cushions and cheese wiz, a door handle, a bite of Anti-Cosmo's chart of fairies and their Anti-Fairy counterparts, a camera, and a phone in addition to trying to eat Anti-Cosmo's Idea Bulb when she is pregnant with Poof's Anti-Fairy counterpart Foop. |

During Peggy's pregnancy arc on Married... with Children, she has a heavy craving for tapioca, and when she calls for it from upstairs, the kids are seen shoveling it from a giant drum in the living room. She also craved "tobacky and clam" ice cream, and would take food from one restaurant to combine with food from another. Marcy had them too, and in one scene she was scarfing chicken legs while throwing the bones over her shoulder, while Peg was eating spaghetti, with an entire jar of gas tablets mixed in. (Both of them complain about their families acting as if the two of them were "unpleasant to be around".) | |

A non-pregnancy-related variant with the Triptych Continuum iteration of Spike. In the Continuum, specific gems can have drug-like effects on dragons, so when Spike gets sick he will often develop cravings for whatever specific gems would help treat his current illness (for example, when suffering from pulmonary edema he starts craving cachalong opals, which presumably help his body get fluid out of his lungs). | |

When you get it and deliver it to her, the conversation reveals that not only is the craving the result of pregnancy, her yet-to-be-born daughter is Kyrin, the Explorer Pirate instructor in present-day Maple World. | |

Not Always Right: This entry, in which a woman sends her husband out for a mint chocolate candy bar, which the cashier thinks of as "the most unappetizing candy in the store". When the man panics because he doesn't have the change to buy it, the cashier sends him on his way in a hurry (the man came back to pay). Played with in this entry from the Not Always Working section. The customer's pregnant daughter doesn't have a craving for mayonnaise; she's making a large batch of deviled eggs. This story is about a pregnant woman who ordered a mushroom-pineapple-anchovy pizza. At first, the pizza guy thought it was a joke. When he arrived at her house, he asked her to eat a slice and then told her the workers had a bet on whether or not it was a prank. Since it wasn't, he gave it to her for free. In this story, a husband is sent for anchovies, asparagus, and bacon-flavored potato chips. A fellow customer is able to use these items (and the fact that the husband is wearing pajamas) to guess the situation and is even willing to pay for it when the husband is short on money. |

She even went as far as stirring bee pollen into yogurt for lunch (even though Mulder tells her she's a scientist and should know better...)

In "Rapunzel" the girl is held captive by a Wicked Witch who caught her father stealing rampion for his pregnant wife and demanded her in return for her father's life. Similarly, Petrosinella and Persinette both had mothers who robbed the witch of her parsley and had to pay the same price. Parsley may not seem wacky — unless you want to eat it plain, and have to have some from the garden owned by a dangerous sorceress. Meanwhile The Fair Angiola has seven pregnant women who all crave the witch's jujubes (red dates): six of them get away with stealing the fruit, but one gets caught and has to promise her unborn child to the witch. |

In the 1993 "Hollyrock-a-bye Baby" post-series film for The Flintstones, Pebbles showcases the "wacky appetite increase" variant, where despite being in the last week of her pregnancy, she's shown devouring massive amounts of food. As in, portions equal to that of her Big Eater father's usual fare — followed by his own equally huge share! It struck such a chord that the 1994 run of Flintstones trading cards features, as part of the set honoring the film, a card that depicts Pebbles with a massive (and bitten into) drumstick in one hand and a spoonful of strawberry ice cream with chocolate sauce in the other whilst her doting parents hover around her with a huge bowl of strawberry ice cream and chocolate sauce (with the obligatory massive pickle on the side), a big slice of blueberry pie, a huge ham, a pineapple, and two tomatoes. | |

The Brittas Empire: The rarer variation comes with Carole's pregnancy in Series 2, as she ends up eating comically huge proportions of food, up to and including an industrial-sized can of beans. In Series 6, Julie's pregnancy causes her to start to eat the strangest things, such as paper, biro, rubber, and even coal. |

From their take on Rapunzel: The adaptation of The Goose That Laid the Golden Egg has the titular goose (who initially faked laying golden eggs by painting one gold to avoid being cooked and eaten) ask the king for pickles and ice cream before she starts laying a golden egg for real. |

In the Faerie Tale Theatre episode that retells the story of Rapunzel, not only does Rapunzel's mother Marie have the traditional desperate craving for a vegetable from the witch's garden – in this version for radishes – but once she gets the radishes, she cooks and eats them in various odd ways, such as baking them in a pie, putting them in sandwiches and porridge, and even dipping them in chocolate fondue. Although in this case, the craving isn't entirely natural, but magically enduced by the Witch. | |

Doctor Who has a non-pregnancy-related example: the Eleventh Doctor spends a good ten minutes after his regeneration trying to figure out exactly what it is he's craving, working his way through most of the contents of Amelia's kitchen before eventually settling on fish fingers and custard. Not to mention his horrified reactions to all other food: "Apples are rubbish!" "Beans are evil." "I hate yogurt, it's just stuff with bits in it" "That's bacon. Are you trying to poison me?" culminating with being so offended at the taste of a slice of bread and butter that he goes all the way down the hallway to the front door so he can fling it across the yard in disgust. The comedy special The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot features a scene where a pregnant Georgia Moffett eats ice cream using an enormous celery stalk as a scoop. (Her father Peter Davison's Doctor costume famously featured a celery stalk.) |

The Urusei Yatsura fanfic "Sakura Seedling" has a pregnant Sakura, who was already a Big Eater of massive proportions, chugging liter-bottles containing a liquified slurry of cottage cheese, chutney, and nattonote fermented soybeans. Sequel fanfic "Oni Candy" uses the "gluttonous wacky cravings" variation for Ran. Having finally scored the hand of her beloved Rei, she learns the hard way the difficulties of having the child of such a notorious Big Eater, with a baby that physically demands she incessantly consume food, savagely kicking her from inside her womb unless she's eating. By the end of the story, she's literally eaten herself into a coma, and her belly is physically vibrating as her unborn daughter throws a tantrum, kicking non-stop in an attempt to goad her mother into waking up and resuming gorging herself. It's mentioned in "Oni Candy" that the also pregnant Lum is also consuming a lot more food than usual due to her pregnancy, which she explicitly states is a side-effect of pregnancy in oni, but she doesn't take it anywhere near the levels that Ran does. |

When Lucy is "expecting" Little Ricky on I Love Lucy, she sends Ricky out in the middle of the night to find a store that makes a papaya milkshake — as well as sardines to mix in and a pickle to dip in it. At the end of the episode, she's switched to sardines with pistachio ice cream and hot fudge. In Real Life, the ice cream and fudge were "played" by mashed potatoes and gravy — but the sardines, which had to show up on camera for effect, were the genuine article. Lucille Ball later said she never ate sardines again after that. | |

Cold Case: In "Runner", the Victim of the Week is Joe Washington, a cop killed in the 1970s. He and his partner both had pregnant wives. When his partner is complaining about his wife busting his balls for forgetting her mint chip ice cream, Joe laughs and talks about his wife sending him out for pickles and fish sauce. | |
