One ofRihanna’s pregnancy cravings is reminiscent of home.
The unique combination is traditional in her home country of Barbados, Rihanna said in the interview.
“It has to be with salt and only with salt, because in Barbados we take our fruits to the ocean and soak them,” she toldVogueabout eating tangerines. “Trust me, it really isa thing.”
But her other craving will resonate with women all over the world. She also raved about her love for chocolate: “I usually hate desserts, but all of a sudden you come close to me with a chocolate-covered donut and you’ve got my heart forever.”

“I don’t know when I ovulate or any of that type of s—. We just had fun,” shesaid. “And then it was just there on the test. I didn’t waste any time. I called him inside and showed him. Then I was in the doctor’s office the next morning and our journey began.”
Rihannarevealedlast month that she is in her third trimester, tellingPEOPLEin February that she’s enjoying having fun with fashion as her body changes.
The Fenty Beauty founder also said that style gives her an extra shot of confidence when she needs it.
“Right now, being pregnant, some days you just feel like, ‘Ugh, I just want to lay here on this couch all day.’ But when you put on a little face and a little lipstick, you transform,” she said. “You put some clothes on, and it’s like, when you look good, you feel good. I’ve heard that for a very long time, but it’s true. It really can get you up off that couch and make you feel like a bad bitch.”
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky revealed in January that they areexpectingtheir first child together with photos taken in the rapper’s neighborhood of Harlem.
Soon after the news broke, a source close to the coupletold PEOPLEthat thefashion mogul"couldn’t be happier" to become a mom and that the couple can’t wait to meet their little one.
