Craving Lunchmeat

Sarah

Why is it every pregnancy all I want is a big ole turkey sandwich?!?! I hate hot sandwiches. Is it okay to heat the lunchmeat up to steaming then let it get back to room temp before eating? I’m losing my mind over here for a sandwich 😂😂😂 Anyone else??

You don't have to heat it. You have a higher chance of getting listeria from unwashed lettuce. I eat a cold sandwich every day

Just eat it cold. None of my doctors have ever agreed you can’t. Nitrate free natural kind is best, but it doesn’t really matter. You’re more likely to get listeria from vegetables. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Or you could just make the sandwich with good quality products using good food handling techniques and enjoy your sandwich.

So I hate heated meat too, so I talked to my OB about it and she told me that I could heat it in the microwave, then stick it in the freezer for 5 minutes lol been doing that since.
