Alison Brierley has probably the strangest pregnancy craving I've ever heard of -- roadkill. Briereley is a British artist, taxidermist, and mom-soon-to-be which craves dead animals that have been hit by cars.

Brierley claims that she eats pigeons, owls, deer, hare, rabbit, partridges, but pheasants is her staple. She told Metro UK, "I get the best meat from friends who ring me up to tell me about a kill they've spotted on their way to work."

She even knows the best place to find animal carcasses. She said, "The best road round here is the A61 to Ripon, it's definitely the most fruitful. But most of my foraging is opportunistic and I don't go out looking for carcasses."

Brierley told Metro UK that she ate roadkll before becoming pregnant but she has a huge craving for it now.

What the hell?????? I can understand a pregnant woman craving pickles, ice cream, etc., but ROADKILL?? That's just nasty!!

How would you even possibly crave this unless you have eaten it before. Ewwww!!!!

I know, right? I can't help but wonder if it's going to affect the health of her unborn baby.

Is it that little extra touch of tire rubber, exhaust and dirt that makes it so craveable?

Not to mention the flies and the maggots that are probably also in there.

This is even stranger than the women who start eating paper while they're pregnant, which is more common than you'd think. Pica disorder.

That baby must be the spawn of survivor man. It's going to come out of her drinking it's own piss.

Craving protein isn't weird - or anything close to pica.

absolute bullshit. I do not believe this story one bit. The Metro is just trying catch readers attention by publishing this fake ass story.

It's not the protein that's weird, it's the way she obtains the protein that is. Eating paper is classified as pica.

the only thing she craves is a bit of publicity... munchyausen by proxy

I read the thread title, then saw the woman's face and thought 'yup, she looks a bit nutty'.

How odd though.

I craved oranges during my first pregnancy. Nothing during my 2nd.

only thing I ever craved was Pina Coladas and that is because I couldn't have one.....

That's some nasty shit if you ask me.
