Pregnant and hungry. I really want something that has crunch, is crispy and savoury that isn't crisps!

But I don't know what I want.

Sea salt and balsamic vinegar kettle chips. They make me drool like Homer Simpson!!!

Salted popcorn mixed with skittles. Saw mr through four pregnancies 😂

Breadsticks and the 4 dip things you get on buffets/bbqs

Cheese toastie, but properly crunchy, not soggy.

WalkerWalking · 02/05/2022 09:12

Grilled garlic bread. Argh, I'm so hungry now!

Celery with peanut butter or cream cheese

raw carrot and cauliflower.

Melba toast

Pretzels ( the little crisp ones not the big doughy ones)

You did say no crisps, but at the moment quavers are my go to pregnancy snack. They are about the only thing that don’t make me sick!

Oo white bread, butter and frazzle sandwich

Magpiecomplex · 02/05/2022 09:14

@WalkerWalking I'll see your cheese toastie and raise you a cheese and marmite toastie. Always a go-to when I was pregnant

Silkierabbit · 02/05/2022 09:17

I have either a salad with carrot, spring onion and radish in it with whatever else you like I have things like cheese, egg, ham or tuna

Or a sandwich you like with carrot sticks, spring onion and radish or celery if you like celery

I also like crackers with cheese and pickled onions

Twiglets or hash browns (pref from McDonalds)

I had v bad sickness but was much better if I started with a sausage mcmufgin, hash brown and full fat coke. In fact half expected to give birth to a breakfast not a baby

I got exactly these cravings when pregnant - could not abide the thought of anything slimy or wet or soft. Lived on toast and crisps.

I suggest Beef flavoured hula hoops, or hot Paprika ridged crisps (can't recall the brand)

User478 · 02/05/2022 09:18

Celery with peanut butter

Silkierabbit · 02/05/2022 09:19

Also I have like a ploughmans with cheese, bread, onions and apple and pickle.

Another crunchy one I love is pickled red cabbage but I have to be careful as I eat the whole jar then get stomach ache.

Parker231 · 02/05/2022 09:20

Slices of apple dipped in peanut butter

SouperNoodle · 02/05/2022 09:21

Roast chicken sandwich on toast with mayo and iceberg lettuce 😍

larkstar · 02/05/2022 09:23

Fry some lettuce or celery with some chilli oil.

catfunk · 02/05/2022 09:24

Twiglets?
Those mini crackers that taste of salt and cheese in the shape of fish etc.
pretzels ?

plinkyy · 02/05/2022 09:25

why not just crisps?

plinkyy · 02/05/2022 09:25

@Matchingcollarandcuffs 😆

OldTinHat · 02/05/2022 09:26

Giant corn from M&S. The jalapeño flavour is better than the salted one but WOW they are fabulous!

enjoyingscience · 02/05/2022 09:26

Frazzles. Don’t over think it.

MayBeee · 02/05/2022 09:28

Crunchy peanut butter on crackers with cucumber on the side.
