Schlotskys

I know deli meat we are suppose to stay away from, does that mean a Schlotskys sandwich is out of the question?!

Re: Schlotskys

  • I ate subs throughout my first pregnancy and I just had another one today. I think the point is to not eat deli meats that have been setting out all day un-refrigerated. So you could ask the person making your sandwich if they could grab meat straight from the fridge. I also read that if you microwave the meat first, it will kill any possible bacteria.

    Just a lay person's opinion!

  • I was told that I could have deli meat as long as it was fresh like Boars Head, not pre packaged like Oscar meyer. ;) I love sandwiches!
  • I can't stop eating sandwiches. Love schlotskys!

  • I broke and ate Schlotzkys last week, I was craving a sandwich so badly. The girl that took my order said the meat was cooked so I said why not. It was delicious!!!

    I didn't eat deli meat during my first pregnancy, but have been eating sandwiches, hot dogs and all sorts of stuff this time around. My OB says everything in moderation is fine! I was super careful with my first, but feel it's true "second child" and so on your much more leneant!
    I say enjoy your schlotzkys, go for it girl!!
  • I am jealous right now. We have no Schlotzky's where I live...

  • It can't believe I'm seeing this post. There was a Schlotzky's down the road for about 15 years and I think I ate there once. Today I drove by where it used to be and was wishing like heck that it was still here. Ha!
  • But to respond to the OP, I make sure the deli meat comes from somewhere fresh and that I heat it until steaming before eating.
  • Thank you everyone!!!!! This is my first baby so im just nervous about everything!
  • And now I am dying for schlotzkys.... And the nearest one is like 2 hours away :(
  • I eat deli meat with out steaming it. If it comes from a reputable place I don't worry.
  • I eat it! There's no way to not eat sandwiches j NYC.
  • I've been eating toasted Subway sandwiches. If it's heated up until it's steaming it should be OK.

  • Schlotzky's was one of my biggest cravings with my DD, I'm about to bring it back after reading this!
  • Schlotzsky's is my very favorite thing right now. I can see it steaming when it rolls off out of the oven. Ultimate original on wheat! I know what I'm having for dinner tonight!!!!

    This. Particularly with places like Schlotsky's and Jimmy John's, etc, the turn over time of the meat is so fast I never worried too much during my pregnancy.
