Leftovers??

Question

I keep reading not to eat leftovers while pregnant. If I hear them up will they be ok?

Answer

I’ve read so many things not to eat while pregnant and I almost died of laughter. So many myths out there and things that ppl invent that are just not true. I read a whole article the other day just cause it was so ridiculous about the fruits and foods we can’t eat including milk 👀 completely ridiculous. I obviously wouldn’t eat 2 week old leftovers but I eat 2 day old leftovers regularly with no problem.

Answer

As long as you follow common sense food safety, you're fine. Heated or not.

Answer

As long as you only save them for a day or two it’s just fine.

Answer

Obviously you don't want to eat spoiled food but why wouldn't you eat leftovers? That sounds silly. Like people reading "don't wat raw meat" and thinking they can't have a rare steak. 🙄

Answer

I think it’s ok if they’re definitely within the safe time frame and they have gone straight into the fridge or freezer. Just heat them up on a high heat to be sure :) x

Answer

What?  I didn’t know this was a thing.  I just reheated potatoes I made on Sunday.

Answer

This is bogus just make sure if it’s supposed to be hot it’s heated fully. And enjoy I eat leftovers most days and did with my daughter no issues

Answer

Stay away too much from the internet about what you can and can't eat.my first pregnancy i limited myself to everything.no leftovers,no fruit that could be peeled,no sugars.now pregnant with my rainbow I listen to exactly what my doctor limited me to, which is just the amount of caffeine and Seafood.🤷

Answer

As long as you heat them thoroughly (to about 185 degrees), you should be fine.
