I'm just going to post this because I myself had absolutely no idea that these shouldn't be consumed raw! As I was researching it, the problem comes from the sprouting process. It's done with a moist heat, which is a breeding ground for salmonella, E. Coli, and Listeria. All three can make you sick and two of which can harm the fetus.

Please do whatever you feel is right for your body and baby. I would have just loved to be informed of this, as I was NEVER told about it. To me, sprouts aren't worth the worry. Lol
