Never heard of that before, you may experience heartburn from it though!! I can't eat pizza at all without having that pain, and acid reflux!

Thankyou ! I feel so much better :) I read about nitrate in peperoni saying that it can harm a pregnancy... plus I also heard of many pregnant woman eating peperoni while pregnant and still have healthy babies... so I'm going to keep eating it lol :)
