    Common here in South Africa. An exclusively female habit (Not looking at you, Thabo)

    A lot of pregnant women tens to eat these small lumps of dirt more regularly, or start eating it.

    I think there is a biological urge to it. But who will study that now?

    They might start getting into the habit, and we can't have that
