Someone told me that I can't eat hot dogs while pregnant. Something about nitrates or something? Has anyone else heard that? I know some people don't like hot dogs so sorry if this grosses anyone out. But I LOVE a good all beef dog, hot off the grill with some chili on it cheese over it. If I grill it really good, don't you think it'd be okay to eat? I just bought a new package of them and everything right before finding out I was pregnant.
What do y'all think?
Re: All beef hot dogs
Totally this!
Here is a link to a great brand of nitrate/nitrite free hotdogs if you are interested.

All this. I rarely eat hot dogs but if I wanted one I wouldn't think much about it. Some people avoid them completely, as well as lunch meat. It seems a little dramatic.
Its fine if fully cooked and in moderation.
I hadn't eaten meat in 10 years til I was pregnant with DD and I got cravings for hot dogs. I gave in. lol
Thank you all! I found some nitrate free all beef dogs at the grocery store today. Oscar Meyer makes them. I had some chili dogs for dinner, YUM! I feel a billion times better!
