09/18 Etiquette

Quote From: missy10

 

  The crunching makes my teeth hurt even if the person is across the room.  Someone told me that people chew ice because of an iron deficiency.  I've suggested to a couple of people and when they started on vitamins with iron they stopped crunching. One of them also craved dirt and charcoal when she was pregnant.

I've heard about what you're talking about with the woman who craved dirt & charcol while pregant. It's a disease called Pica. A easy way to remember it, is just think of Pikachu. It's a craving for non-foods, and it isn't that odd for it to happen with pregnant women.
