Fried Calamari

controlledchaos617 · April 2012

I just recently bought some salt and pepper calamari at costco, and now I'm wondering if I am even allowed to eat it...does anyone know? Also what are some good dips for it? I am thinking cocktail sauce, I forget what they usually serve iwth it in resturants.

Calamari is fine in moderation during pregnancy. I had the Costco salt and pepper (Philips brand, right?!?), it's really delicious. I like it with a bit of marinara, too!

Why WOULDN'T you be allowed to eat it?

YUM! Only if you share! Marinara sauce of an aoli (sp?) sauce!

Yes, Phillips! I can't wait to try it!

Yep, it's one of the types of seafood that we pregnant ladies can eat every day if we want. Enjoy.

Thanks!! I got what seemed to be a very short lists of things that are not okay, and are okay.

Yum yum yum! It's safe Cocktail sauce would be good, we get it in a trio appetizer when we go to Joe's Crab Shack and it comes with ranch for the spicy stuff and it's really good. One of my favorite restaurants has a fried calamari caesar salad and it's awesome- it would be really easy to put together at home, it's just a classic caesar salad with the calamari. (I just wouldn't eat it every day or anything- I've been trying to have fish once or twice a week)

All of those dips sound good...marinara, ranch, cocktail sauce...maybe I should ust try them all. That sounds like an awesome salad...I have never been to a joes crab shack..is it expensive?

My guess is mercury. I always forget what's on the list and what isn't. The list I got from my doctor had lobster on it, which I think is total BS. I'm eating it anyway.

I'm from the same neck of the woods and my OB explained that it's lobsters (and other seafood) from certain local areas. I think New Bedford Harbor was one. Though, it's not like you can really ask which bay they got it from! My guess is that's why it's on your/our list. It's fairly likely that it's local.

I've eaten lobster so far, too. Yum.
