Pregnancy and Fully cooked lunch meat, can I eat it?

Question

So the lunch meat I bought says it's fully cooked ham and chicken lunch meat, do I still have to cook it for it to be safe for me to eat?

Answer

They say don’t eat a lot of things. My OB actually doesn’t go by the food recommendations. So eat the deli meat and enjoy. The only thing I was told to not eat is raw fish.

Answer

Ya i ate it all time

Answer

I never did

Answer

I was told it’s fine to eat, but just to heat it up.

Answer

Mine said fresh only

Answer

That is exactly what I eat for lunch almost every day and my baby and I are perfectly healthy at 36 weeks. My doctor just said to not drink alcohol and limit my caffeine. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Answer

I eat it

Answer

I’d eat it. You’re more likely to get listeria from fruits and veggies anyway. Just enjoy your sandwich!

Answer

I never heated up my deli meats 😌

Answer

You’re supposed to heat all deli meats to steaming hot before eating to avoid listeria.
