You can potentially get listeria from cold meat. You can get it if your pregnant or not but something in the bacteria if you get it could kill your baby. That is why they tell you not to eat it when your pregnant. You can get foodborne illnesses from anything though. I've personally been educated on foodborne illnesses and I still eat it. Its VERY rare.
@mrs_wainright mayo is supposedly made with raw eggs n we're not supposed to eat anything raw for the fear of salonella (sp?) poisoning not even fresh veggies but whatever I still do if not what r we supposed to eat????
@honeybee no problem. Its just an extra symptom of listeria that others don't have. Seriously, I've never known anyone to get it but they warn you because you can "potentially" get it. You can "potentially" get run over by an elephant too. Lol!
@huneybe A sandwich with roast pork, glazed ham, pickles, mustard and swiss cheese. (there may be some diff variations) Then they put it on a sandwich press with some butter on the outside. Yummy!
If you leave Mayo setting out for a long period of time it grows a ton of bacteria that can make you sick. Mostly salmonella. If you have a picnic of something don't leave your sandwiches out longer than an hour. Any longer and you could get really sick.
I eat packaged sliced turkey from the store in sandwiches, with mayo. I also eat salads with ranch dressing. I ate that kind of stuff with my first pregnancy and just found out about it with this one and I'm 31 weeks.
@Megrod88 yeah i was 32 weeks when i found out about it so i figured i might as wel just keep on with it.. i have slacked back tho.. and i always had my subway sammiches toasted just never do the ones at home.
I do, there are too many rules nowadays... I don't buy into that crap. Our mothers ate it, we're all fine. I also don't believe in waiting until the age of 2 to give your kids eggs and peanut butter... it all sounds like crap to me!
I eat lunch meats still but I heat it up just in case, thats what my doc and wic said to do, they told me that its very dangerous to get listeria during your last trimester cause there is a high risk for the baby to die from it. Warming it up kills the bacteria. And mayo is fine as long as its not home made
