(Sarah murmurs playfully) (upbeat music) - Hi, I'm Sarah. I'm a video producer with Buzzfeed and I'm pregnant. I've asked my pregnant coworker, Cheska... - Hey, I'm Cheska, and I'm in my third trimester. - To try weird pregnancy cravings that we found on the internet. Thanks internet. - Ever since I got pregnant, I have thought about food differently, only because I'm just paranoid about what to eat and what not to eat. Sushi's not safe for pregnant women. I miss sushi a lot, actually. The first... (groans) - When you're pregnant, it's almost like every meal, you're at a Michelin star restaurant, okay? Food tastes that good. So I'm really interested to see what these pregnancy cravings are. - I've heard of pickles and peanut butter, but I'm not too familiar with odd cravings, so I don't know. - Before Cheska and I dig in, we should talk to BuzzFeed's preeminent mom and former pregnant person Hannah Williams. - Hi, I'm Hannah, and if you've seen any of my videos, you might have seen me make my family eat my weird pregnancy cravings, and it was so much fun. Some of the weirdest cravings I've ever had were raw meat and raw dough. I still don't understand why. But there are some foods that I did have when I was pregnant that opened my eyes to stuff that I like to eat. - I'm excited to try food. I'm just excited to eat. All right, let's do this. (hands slap) Sauerkraut and pizza. I'm looking forward to this. - This isn't something I would choose, but who knows, maybe I'll like it. - Sauerkraut is good on savory things. Pizza is savory. (murmurs approvingly) Yeah, this is good. - It's not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. - It's cheesy. It has a little bit of acidity from the sauerkraut. - It reminds me of sausage on pizza, and that's something I would eat, so... - It has everything. - Since I think I'd actually eat it, I've got to give this an eight out of ten. - Ten out of ten. I feel like this should be a thing. I feel like this shouldn't be an odd pregnancy craving. It's not that odd to put sauerkraut on pizza, I don't think. - [Sarah] Here we go: pickle sandwich. - You know, sandwiches are sandwiches. Some sandwiches are good, some sandwiches are bad. I think I will like it. (toast crunches) - Okay. - It's not bad, but it's not great. - It's like another vessel for eating the pickle. - I do feel that if you're really into it, you would add more pickles. I just put like two slices; it's not enough. - "Pickle sandwich" doesn't sound good to me, but eating it, it's just like, Oh, I like pickles. Of course I like a pickle sandwich. I guess this one gets a nine out of ten for me. - Actually, I'd give it a seven. The more I eat it, the more I'm like, this is okay. - The things you eat, at a certain stage in your pregnancy, they start to flavor the placenta. This experience could make my baby like weird things. And if that happens, that's on you, internet. - Oh, I love Cheetos. - [Sarah] Flamin' hot Cheeto. - Strawberry yogurt: good. I'm not sure about them together. - I think I see what's going on here with the salty and sweet. I might not have thought of it, but maybe it's still good. - It might surprise me, so let's see. (Cheetos crunch) Oh, that's not bad. Actually, that's not bad at all. (Sarah murmurs) The smell is sweet and salty with a little bit of spicy Cheeto dust smell. - I haven't had flamin' hot Cheetos since I've been pregnant. - I thought it would be weird, but it's like the sourness of the yogurt and then the... the savoriness, saltiness of the Cheetos. - These two don't sound like they should go together, but it helps cut the hot heat in a way that I get. - Yeah, I like this a lot, actually. (laughs) I was surprised. - Still not one I would probably get a ton. So I'm going to give this one a seven out of ten. (crunches) - [Cheska] Sauerkraut and Reese's peanut butter cups. - I love Reese's peanut butter cups and I can't imagine improving them, so I don't know how sauerkraut is going to improve them. You know what I mean? But... - I don't even know how you would think about this combination. (laughs) I don't want to do it. (groans) - No. No, no, no. No, no, no, no, no. Absolutely not. Absolutely not. - They just don't go together. They're just - they're not friends. - Internet, you made me ruin a perfectly good Reese's peanut butter cup, and I'm upset about it. - No. Still no. - I'm gonna give this a two out of ten. - I love chocolate. - [Sarah] Snickers with yellow mustard. - It's just one of those things that I keep eating during my pregnancy, but I've also just eaten a lot of chocolate. - Like right now, if you squint your eyes, this could be a hot dog. It's not. It's delicious chocolate and there's mustard on it, so... - It feels like the chocolate is gonna overpower the mustard. I think that's what's going to happen. - Okay. (vocalizes) - I don't like it. - It's fine. I could see if you used spicy mustard that it might give the Snickers a spicy kick. - I like mustard in my hot dogs. I don't like it on my chocolate. - This is fine, but I probably would prefer the Snickers without the mustard, so this gets us six out of ten for me. - I'm gonna give it a one. You can change your mind and wipe the mustard off so you can still have a Snickers bar. I don't know if it's my imagination but I've been feeling Braxton Hicks contractions. I think some of these combinations - not all of them, some of them are really good - but some these combinations, they just don't sit right. - Pasta sauce with vanilla pudding on top. I don't understand this one. You already have sauce on it. Why are you putting another sauce-like substance on the pasta? - Okay, now anything that smells too strong, it makes me a little queasy. - Going into this mixture, not a lot of faith. - I feel like this might be better with the pasta, to be honest. I just didn't have time to make pasta. So I'll just try it as it is. - No. It's another no. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. (Cheska spits) - I don't like it. - No flavor boost from it, just gross texture. - It's soft, and it's liquidy. - This one has to get a one out of ten, 'cause I hate it so much. - Yeah. No, that was a zero. Kiwis and hot sauce. - [Sarah] I like putting hot sauce on things, so why not kiwis? - I love fruits. I grew up around fruits. I just - I love every kind of fruit. I think I'll be surprised. (Sarah exclaims) Oh wow. I like it. - I know a lot of pregnant people love spicing things up, so this is really - this could be it. - Yeah, you already have the citrus thingy of tahini, and then you're just adding a little bit of spice to it. - I think this is smart thinking. Solid execution. - But you got your fruit, you got your spice. It's easy to eat. - So I'm going to give this one an eight out of ten. - Ten out of ten. Okay, so Ritz crackers, sardines, and blueberries. - I hate everything that I'm looking at right now. This is wild. Whoever came up with this, I would really like to hear from them where the Ritz crackers plus sardines plus blueberries came from, because I just do not see the genesis. I do not see it. - I thought I was past food aversions, but the sardine smell is really weird right now, actually. I usually like sardines, but this also might be one of those things where I don't like the smell, but I like it. Like stinky tofu or something. (Sarah yelps) Okay. (Sarah retches) It's not bad. When I'm eating it, it's not bad. - My body didn't just reject this, it rejected the food I had eaten previous, so a lot just came up right then. Zero out of ten. I'm angry. I'm angry at the internet. I am now positive somebody was pranking. - I give this an eight. Negative two for the smell, but yeah, eight for the taste. And it's nutritious. You know, you got your fish protein, you have your carbs, and you have your fiber. - The memory of it is upsetting my stomach. If I could give this negative 1000 out of ten, I would. Twinkies with ranch. This seems like the most American craving we've had yet. Ranch? On a Twinkie? - I grew up in the Philippines, so we didn't really have Twinkies. And then I watched Zombieland and I was like, Oh my gosh, Twinkies, so cool! And then I tried them, and I realized there's something really special about them. You know, if you want a quick snack, this is good. Cheers. - I don't like it. - The ranch is very strange. - I'm actually surprised on this one because I'm a big believer in the ranch-enhance. It enhances things. - The more you chew, the more the Twinkies overpower the ranch, so it's not as bad as it could have been if this had more ranch. - Did not do it for me. I just spit it out, so I have to give it a three out of ten. - I'll give this a one because you can wipe off the ranch. Vanilla ice cream with pulled pork on top. - You know, I get the hot and the cold combo. That could be something. - I don't think I'm gonna like it. Pulled pork is supposed to be hot. Ice cream is supposed to be cold. Well, then also you have hot fudge sundaes, but then they're both sweet, so that's where they mesh. Okay. (murmurs) No. - I don't know. The pulled pork's ruining the vanilla ice cream, and the vanilla ice cream is ruining the pulled pork, so... - I don't know. I changed my mind. This isn't as bad. - This combo makes sense to me in my pregnancy brain now. Like the pulled pork and the vanilla. It makes sense to me, but I cannot eat it right now. I would give this a 0.5. Yeah, I don't know why this was invented. - Five out of ten. - Only a pregnant woman would like this, just not this pregnant woman. That was an experience. It was certainly a roller coaster ride. - Yeah, whether you're pregnant or not pregnant, I hope you got some great ideas from these crazy pregnant brains that came up with these weird concoctions. - There was a lot of stuff here that I didn't think I would like, and I really actually like. But there was just some stuff that was just - I don't know. - Pudding on pasta? I can't with that. - Like, only a pregnant woman would like it, 'cause it's so odd. Some of those combos were so odd. - Just, like, hormones, and then we have a heightened sense of taste and smell. Even pickle sandwich. I love pickles. I'll put them on a sandwich. Another excuse to eat a pickle? Sure. Why the hell not? - The kiwis and the hot sauce were my favorite 'cause it was the most surprising. The sauerkraut and the pizza - everybody should try that. That should be a thing. That should be served in restaurants and stuff. - Happy cooking. Bon appetit. I mean... Tasty. - My baby's been kicking me the entire time in this shoot. I think he really didn't like a lot of things you made me try. (upbeat orchestral music)
