  It wouldn't even cross my mind - yum! Go for it.

  huh thats a new one on me. I went the other day with my hubby. Sooo good. There was a bit of yogurt hanging out of the machine since it is so thick, but I just squeezed out a bit so that it fell and had the cold nice stuff from in the machine. 

  
  

  At this point it seems that if I avoided every possible listeria source, I couldn't eat healthy at all.

  I didn't know we are not suppose to have soft served ice cream! I just had some the other day from McDonald's. Why is this and how big of a deal is it? I love soft served ice cream.

  This is the first time I have heard anything like this.  I really wouldn't worry.

  I would have just been glad my co workers didn't want to go out for drinks.

  All the national chains clean and disinfect their machines on a daily basis in order to stay within code.  I wouldn't worry about listeria from Fro Yo places or McDonalds. 

  However, I don't know if I would have a cone from a random Mr. Softie truck on the other hand.  Who knows how often those are cleaned.

  Go for it. I think they should have discounted prices for pregnant women. I would be there every day then!

  Omg is nothing safe here? Geez. My dr said no raw fish meat or eggs. That's it! I'm sticking to that. Can't live a life of fear of some remote bacteria.

  My NP advised against it if it wasn't a reputable place since it's hard to know how long ago they cleaned the machines.  I haven't had any yet but my nieces and nephews are coming to visit next week and I know they'll want to hit up the local fro yo place.  Still debating whether I'll take the risk.  I tend to be over-the-top cautious when it comes to things like this but I'm trying not to be ridiculous.

  I discovered froyo when I was pregnant with my DS and I probably ate it like 4 times a week. I craved really cold food/drinks with him. He turned out fine.

  I don't avoid soft serve during pregnancy. I practically lived on Braum's twist yogurt cones for an entire month when I was pregnant with DS in the miserable Texas summer of 2011. I also enjoyed raw cookie dough, homemade ice cream, medium-rare steak, diet soda, coffee, bagged salad greens, and cold lunch meat.
  
  My husband works for a company that manufactures and sells industrial appliances and cleaning chemicals, which means he also works closely with health inspectors. If you eat out frequently, believe me when I say that froyo should be the very least of your worries.

  My sister avoided it but she also avoided all caffeine & felt bad taking zantac her doc prescribed. So when I had it with my pregnancy my mom gave me crap... like others said you're more likely to get listeria from a salad than a properly ran froyo place

  OMG...I have never heard this and am going to pretend I didn't. My hubby and I eat froyo at least once a week! I also got hooked on it during my last pregnancy.

  I totally thought this was going to be a craving/aversion "tell me what ice cream to get" post.  Listeria in froyo? I veto that.
