Now that she’s pregnant, Katy Perry is reportedly craving spicy food. We applaud that (and we’re actually a little shocked that it’s something new). She’s even taken to carrying a bottle of hot sauce with her everywhere she goes. (Something completely normal for most chiliheads and hot sauce enthusiasts.)

Whether you’re pregnant or not, you’ve heard that expectant mothers are likely to crave some strange foods (and even non-foods) and flavor combinations. If you’re craving the fire of a finely-crafted hot sauce, it’s actually not that unusual. Many women who don’t usually enjoy spicy foods develop a desire for them when they’re pregnant. (Keep in mind that we have no idea who these fire-resistant women are; they may actually be a myth as we’ve never met one.)
