Pregnant Natalie Portman craves pineapples, burritos

Actress Natalie Portman is craving pineapples and burritos during her pregnancy.

Portman, who is expecting her second child with husband Benjamin Millepied, has revealed that she has been addicted to the sour fruit and the not-so-healthy Mexican food wrap, reports etonline.com.

Talking about her cravings on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Wednesday, Portman said: "With (first child Aleph) it was very (different)...

"I wanted cream puffs, anything dessert with cream in it, or just plain cream straight. This time it's, like, healthy - pineapple, cucumbers, burritos, which is maybe less healthy, but delicious."

Portman and Millepied currently have a five-year-old son Aleph.

The actress also said she can't wait to lose her baby weight.

"It does make you look forward to the day when you can just have your own body on the red carpet. It's weird because I'm a small person in general, so you show a lot faster and a lot more when you're small. Everyone thinks I'm about to pop and about to give birth any minute, and I have months to go.

"I went to the store the other day to buy water and the guy at the checkout counter was like, 'Almost, huh?' I was like, 'No! Not at all!"
