发布时间：2019-08-07 编辑：查字典英语网小编

Kerry Trebilcock, 21, suffers from a condition called pica, The Sun reported. The disorder has caused her to eat more than 100 bars of soap and more than 4,000 washing up sponges. 据英国《太阳报》报道，21岁的凯里·特里比尔科克是一名异食癖患者。至今，她已经吃掉100多块肥皂和4000多块洗碗海绵了。

Kerry's eating habits changed after a holiday to Morocco in 2008, during which she picked up an infection of hookworm. 凯里的饮食习惯改变是从2008年开始的，那年她到摩洛哥度假，结果肠道受到寄生虫感染。

Kerry, a dental nurse from Mylor, Cornwall, said: "After one dinner where I ate a double helping of lasagna and a tub of ice cream, I still felt hungry." 凯里来自英国康沃尔迈勒，是一名牙科护士。她说：“有一次，我晚饭吃了双份烤宽面条和一桶冰淇淋，但是饭后我仍觉得很饿。”

"To distract myself, I decided to wash the dishes. I took out a new sponge from a packet and had an overwhelming desire to eat it. I sat down with a glass of water and chewed the sponge until it was gone. Finally my hunger was gone and my stomach felt satisfied." “为了分散注意力，我决定去洗碗。我从一整包刷碗海绵中拿出一个新的，当时，我就有强烈的愿望把它吃掉。然后，我坐下来一边喝水，一边吃光了整块海绵。最后，饥饿感才消失，我的胃感到十分满足。”

The next morning, as she washed herself with lemon and lime soap, she had an urge to eat some and swallowed a chunk. 第二天早上起床，她用柠檬酸橙香皂洗手，非常想尝一尝，最后就吃了一大块。
