[quote=Anonymous]I had two separate OBs approve lunch meat as long as I took appropriate precautions like not eating the lunch meat that was sitting out for hours at a work meeting buffet or ordering a sandwich at a sketchy, low-trafficked deli where the meat may not be fresh. Quality lunch meat from a grocery store or busy sandwich shop like Jimmy Johns is totally fine. My OB in Dallas made the point that one of the last major listeria scares was in ice cream (Bluebell, a Texas standard) and who would ever tell a pregnant woman she can't have ice cream? Also, I've heard of microwaving it to be extra safe but that sounds disgusting. I'd rather abstain than eat microwaved meat. Gross. [/quote]
