Deli Meat

cassiedawn · March 2009

Did anyone honestly stop eating deli meat?

I get so frustrated with strangers thinking they should tell me what I should and shouldnt eat. My doctor laughed when I asked him if I shouldnt eat deli meat.

Lady at Subway thought she should lecture me in the line about this.

I didn't eat much before I was pregnant, but I have eaten it once and awhile.

Yes.

You can eat it if you steam it first. Or you could stop worrying because you're in your 3rd trimester and you should have had this resolved a long time ago.

hell no. how could i not have a sandwich!?

erinms · March 2009

I did. ?I know it is ridiculous but the info book from our doctor and our Mayo book say not to eat it and it doesn't feel worth it to me to go against that. ?Stupid lady to lecture you though. ?As if there aren't enough things we are worrying about, giving up, dealing with, etc.

If you read the post, she wasn't asking if she could eat it...?

I never stopped eating it...

The only thing I stopped is drinking alcohol.

No, I didn't stop. And I would have told that Subway lady to shove it, or found some reason to lecture her. lol.

I did. But it was mostly b/c if tere was a question about it and I'd been sick from it before I was pg. Then I'd cut it out. However, I did eat it if it was toasted....

Heck no I didn't stop eating it.... Subway turkey sub is the best

I like the hot sandwiches from Subway anyway, but I couldn't live w/o sandwiches I just eat them from places that I trust and get deli meats from the deli rather than prepackaged. And I too would have told the woman at subway to shove it. Seriously who can keep up with all the things we can/can't eat?

I was never a big lunch meat fan to begin with, but this pregnancy has certainly not stopped me from eating Subway when I wanted to!

thenewmrsrussell · March 2009

I didn't eat it that often to begin with. I still don't eat it that often (there have only been 2 times we've had deli meat in the house since I got pregnant)....but I do still eat it.

I eat it - my doctor said it's fine....the chance of someone getting Listeria in the US is minimal -

ilovescottd · March 2009

I stopped eating it but do have to admit I did have a bologna sandwich on two occassions. I couldn't help myself and I was just fine after doing so.
