Pregnancy Info HOME

i was wondering the same thing?? anyone know the answer to this??

From what I have been told, we are supposed to avoid deli type meats, which would include pepperoni UNLESS they are cooked. SO on a pizza is perfectly fine. Any bacteria would have been killed in the cooking process. mmmm pizza!

I asked my doc and she said that as long as they were packaged and they the pep hasnt been sitting out for ever then your ok, but if you buy stuff from the deli thats not too sanitary because who knows how long they have sat there for and how the often the containers are cleaned.

I had thought that us preggos where advised against consuming too many deli meats etc because of how many nitrates and preservatives were in there, as well as the sanitary issues. A moderate amount of pepperoni is fine as long as it's not the only food you eat, obviously.

Everything in moderation is fine. I love pepperoni pizza too :)
