Albacore tuna salad?

in Pregnant after IF
I wanted to ask this here, bc on my birth month board, they are ok with eating anything (I'm not, I was told not to eat eat deli meat). I was wondering what your thoughts were on albacore tuna salad made at the Kroger (grocery) deli? I'm craving it. Would it be safe, or would I have to worry about germs/Listeria or is tuna a no no completely because of mercury?

    Everything I've read agrees with PP.  Make your own tuna salad & use chunk light! mmm

    I find this link helpful.

    Not sure if you should trust me, though. I still eat the occasional turkey sandwich.

    And I had a tuna melt for lunch :-)

    I would stay away from Kroger deli prepared stuff, seems risky (even if not pregnant lol). 

    But making your own should be fine.  My OB gave me a point sheet for fish products and how many points I can have in a month.  It is really helpful. 

    I've been staying away from deli meat.  I want some Jimmy John's after this baby is born :) 

    I've been super careful, this is my 10,000 dollar baby lol.
