Yea I've heard of cooking the meats on the stove top...I think I'm gonna start doing that, just incase. Cuz I can't give up my Sammys!!
My doc told me that deli meat from your trusted deli is ok. I crave for sandwiches so I cook them on the pan until it's steamy and put some cheese on top so I can make a ham and cheese melt or tyrkey melt. My doc said no hot dog. But I have to say I love my Schlotzky's sandwiches and I still eat it. I ate that with my 1st pregnancy too.
I was told the pre-packaged deli meats are OK. Listeria grows in the deli - so you should not eat ANYTHING from the deli cabinets at the grocery store. Since the meat is pre-packaged there isn't a risk of listeria.
I'm not worried about weighing more or anything like that. I never put on weight..I guess I'm lucky like that! And I'm a very healthy eater-I worked in a gym for 2 years and learnen a lot about fitness and nutrition and my best friend is a nutritionist so I'm always hearing whats good and bad for me! The meat is prolly the worst thing I eat..LOL and I wouldn't stop eating it because of that...only if it was bad for the baby which from what I hear it is! So I'll just have to find something else to satisfy my sammy cravings!
I hate Tacos so I don't have to worry about that either! Thanks!
Not only is listeriosis prevalent in deli meat, but there are a TON of preservatives. A nutritionist AND my great-grandma in-law (who studies nutrition religiously, especially up-to-date stuff in med journals) both say deli meat is one of the worst foods you could eat.
What else is really bad for you? Those pre-packaged taco seasonings. They carry a ton of salt and preservatives and cause you to retain water and weigh more.
your welcome, best of luck hope you get your BFP soon ~d
Really?? Ohh man...I thought certain brands were okay...?
Alright, well better safe than sorry, right!
Thanks Ladies!
listeria is the concern ith deli meat, you have to atleast cook it in the microwave until you see steam. I love corned beef so i cook it o the stove til it steams for a while. Listeria a s serious infection that is fatal to the fetus. ~d
I too was concerned about deli meat because I love a good chefs salad. Listeriosis (sp) is what its called and as long as you heat the meat to a certain temp you should be fine. While at the doctor they gave a good handout here is the website www.fsis.usda.gov. Good luck.
