Food cravings. I’m told women get them. Pregnant women apparently really get them(1). FYI, fewer men report having uncontrollable desires for particular food (67% of men vs. 97% of women).

dark-bread-riser.jpgCan you name the top three foods craved by women and the top three craved by men? (src: KMB)

Women:

  1. Chocolate
  2. Ice Cream
  3. Bread

Men:

  1. Red Meat
  2. Potatos
  3. Pizza

WAIT! Did someone slip bread in there by accident? Nope. I’ve verified with a dozen women. Turns out bread is huge for the ladies. That explains why bready restaurants like Kneaders always overflow with females. Now you know. Oh, and the one about guys liking potatoes is right on the money. I love potatoes. Can’t get enough. Baked, mashed, whipped, boiled, fried, frenched or made into tots (mexi-fries) — I love them all.

(1) Some pregnant women develop food cravings and crave unusual things including: watermelon, cheese, pickles, coal, ice, chocolate dipped in mustard, dirt, clay, dust and chalk. I’m told this condition is known as pica.
