Chicken Joy: Topnotcher of My Cravings List

Yes. I crave. A lot. Isn’t that a perfect sign that I am indeed going to have a child? Funny thing about this list is that most of them are not really the type of foods I would frequently desire for. But the thought of them makes my mouth water, which brings me to a second presumptive sign which is I believe to be ptyalism. Yes, that’s TA-YA-LI-SEM or TA-YA-LI-SIM, whichever you prefer. :)

#7 Spaghetti. 
I’m a pasta lover. I never had the slightest inkling that I was already “naglilihi” when I kept pestering my Mom to buy me spaghetti as pasalubong whenever they eat out. I thought I just loved spaghetti. The only difference was that I didn’t get contented with just eating what was on my plate. Yes, I went to the extent of asking whoever my companion was (most of the times, my Aunt) to give me the spaghetti on her plate, in addition to mine.

#6 Melon. 
I like the smell and the thought of its succulent juice is mouth watering.

#5 Mangoes. 
I prefer ripe, the yellow ones.

#4 Prunes. 
I never liked sour things. But with my pregnancy, prunes were an exception. I enjoyed chewing it.

#3 Chocolate drinks (specifically Chuckie). 
I’m not really into this type of drinks because I am the type who checks on the nutritional label at the back of each carton and I find it a waste no matter what fortification they did or claim they’ve done to it. But, the idea of sipping through a straw and creating a sound afterwards, when the carton becomes empty, was very appealing to me.

#2 Maruya. 
I like the taste of the flour used to keep the banana together and how crunchy it can get.

#1 Jollibee’s Chicken Joy. 

I don’t know why but I just like it. It does not matter if I eat it for breakfast, lunch and supper, everyday of the week. And because of this, my little one, though still unborn, already has a moniker - "Kokorokokok" or "Crocs" for short.
