A pregnant woman has developed a "bizarre craving” for eating her local newspaper.Ann Curran, from Dundee, craves copies of her Dundee Evening Telegraph to such an extent that she rips off shreds while playing bingo.She told the Sunday Sun: "I could be sitting in the bingo hall and I’ll start ripping out pages of the newspaper."All the people look at me going, ‘What is she doing?’ I tear the white bits off the edges of the pages and keep them in a bag so I can eat them while I’m shopping.”The 35-year-old also admitted that she buys multiple copies of the same newspaper to satisfy her addiction."If you shredded up lots of different bits of paper, I would know exactly which one was the Evening Telegraph,” she said."My pals keep papers for me but I have to buy a couple of extras to get me through the weekend.”
