A woman expecting her first child says she was left in tears after her sister-in-law ate the pineapple pizza takeaway she'd been craving, and refused to replace it. According to this 35-year-old woman, she's now pregnant after five years of trying and is now 25 weeks along.
Her pregnancy cravings have now kicked in, and the one and only thing she's been longing for is a few slices of Hawaiian pizza, a famously contentious topping among pizza fans. She ordered herself a piping hot pie from Papa John's to scratch the itch, alongside a side order of breadsticks.
After chowing down three slices, she took a nap, awakening sometime later to discover - to her horror - that the rest of her much-desired pizza had mysteriously vanished, leaving her suspicious.
Taking to Reddit, where she goes by the username u/Pregnancy_craving66, the mum-to-be wrote: "I was reasonably upset as I had been craving it. I then asked my husband and sister-in-law which one of them ate my pizza.
"My sister-in-law admitted that she had eaten it and that she was hungry and pretty tired from work. She goes to work from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm.
"I screamed at my sister-in-law and told her to replace it immediately. She refused and said that I was acting ridiculously. I started crying and my husband calmed me down and ordered me a pizza."
She's now begun to wonder whether her sister-in-law was right to brand her behaviour as 'ridiculous', and has reached out to fellow Reddit users for advice.
One person commented: "The screaming was a little uncalled for, but it's common courtesy to ask someone first before just helping yourself to their food. That was rude."
Another empathised: "Who eats the rest of someone's food without asking, much less a pregnant person's? Probably didn't need to yell, but hormones are real."
