Hmmm. Reading the other comments here, I begin to doubt my hasty conclusion that Lois is so hungry because of her pregnancy. If she is pregnant at all, it's hardly been a week, and it would be almost unheard of for a pregnant woman's body to have symptoms kicking in that early. Unless this has something to do with what happens when Clark's Kryptonian genes meet Lois's human ones? Assuming Lois is pregnant at all, of course.

Can't resist telling a little story I heard in my youth:

Pretty young woman: "Please, Sir, would you mind letting me have your seat? I'm pregnant."

Polite elderly gentleman: "Of course, do sit here, please! But... excuse me... you don't look very pregnant, if I may say so."

Pretty young woman: "Well, it was only an hour ago!"
