1. Sorry I can't help you.

When I had those cravings I used to buy them at my local supermarket deli or at the local Dairy Queen (ours serve burgers and such).

10. i'm not sure you're getting the "pregant" part

by the time i got back from the store to get mushrooms and batter ingredients, she'd have been so pissed she wouldn't let me back in the house ;)

17. Gotcha. I do get the "pregnant part." Been there twice.

You're SO screwed. No matter what you do, it won't be right.

Come on over here for a beer instead, OK?

12. OMG. I craved fried mushrooms when I was pregnant!

It's a powerful craving, too.

I find the best fried mushrooms are in local bar/restaurants. They're really good dipped in cocktail sauce!

You could try your local Costco to see if they have some frozen ones. Their frozen foods are ususally pretty good. You could just fry them up yourself whenever the urge hits her.

Also, if you have Schwann's home delivery trucks in your area, they carry frozen fried mushrooms.

Good luck! :)

13. Flour + Buttermilk (or butter or milk) + mushrooms + vegetable oil

Edited on Sat Mar-25-06 11:26 PM by izzybeans

(of some sort)= cool poppa bear (even if the fried mushrooms taste like utter shite...it'll be something to remember).

on edit: just wait until the craving turns to fried pickles and Massaman Curry, then it gets complicated.
