HELP!! Can I eat Cantaloupe?!?

Question

I read somewhere pregnant women aren't supposed to eat cantaloupe because of possible listeria.  I'm a first time Mom to be so I'm unsure.  
Anybody ever eaten it been ok?  Am I overreacting?

Answer

Wash the outside before you cut it and you pretty much eliminate any food poisoning risk.

Answer

You can get listeria from just about anything. You can get E. Coli from spinach. 
Washing melon thoroughly helps. Maybe avoid if if you suspect someone sliced it without scrubbing the outside.

Answer

That only happens if you get precut melon. Just buy whole melons and cut them yourself!

Answer

I actually just read yesterday it’s so good for you because it helps hydrate you , melon , cantaloupe, and watermelon!
