Its ridiculous. Some legit (listeria etc) but really, others…. its frustrating because a lot of it plays on the guilt factor i.e. what if something happens and I didn’t follow food rule #203!

Good Luck :-)

She tries to take some care and avoids some of the “danger” foods but she generally eats what she likes. The recent tragic listeria outbreak was cause for pause though. We’ve also just come back from a holiday in Japan and one does not simply avoid sushi when in Japan. Apparently baby’s taste is developed in the womb (and breast feeding) so exposing them to variety is supposed to be a good thing. Probably why our 2 year old loves truffle cheese and sushi and a bunch of other stuff mother’s are warned against while pregnant.

I’m sorry you had such a bad time food wise at the con. Even as a non-pregnant vegetarian (compounded, I admit, by food allergies and digestive system disease) finding something to eat was a challenge. Apart from the various chips, we did find two items (neither of them were gluten free so wouldn’t have helped you) which we ended up eating every day. I am so pleased to be home to proper, healthy food.
