Salads during pregnancy?

Question

I am craving salad so bad. I obviously know that they are healthy for pregnancy, but I do worry about lettuce due to the high risks of food poisoning it carries. I usually am not too iffy about foods during pregnancy but the lettuce makes me nervous lol we can usually only find bagged lettuce at the grocery store. What do you guys think? Safe to just double wash or avoid altogether?

Answer

Hmm, following cuz im wondering the same and craving cold salads lol

Answer

I've been craving salad too! I just make sure to rinse the lettuce, even if it says it's already washed.

Answer

I've been eating salads when it sounds good, just paying attention to recalls. I think you should be good!

Answer

Good question...I would imagine the risk is fairly minimal especially if you keep up with any recalls. I haven't been able to stomach lettuce, but cold cucumbers in Italian dressing have been okay!
