We ate sushi after the doc told me it was a myth (google it) and preg women can def eat it. Just need to watch the tuna (high mercury content fish). Yum!
Reallllllyyy???!!! I am really craving salmon nigiri and sashimi, but was told unless the salmon is frozen before prep you can't have it....and none of the sushi places do that over here......trust me Ive asked them all!
Sushi IS flash frozen over here, that's the ONLY way it's served. Where do you live that they don't flash freeze it? It'd have to get from ocean to table the same day to avoid flash freezing standards, and that just seems pretty impossible. It's a little like how they used to say you should never eat pork medium rare. Well pork used to have worms because of the feed they gave pigs to eat. Now pigs eat dog food and the worm issue has been eliminated (but the fear still exists).
If you were to get salmonella from food, you'd be MUCH more likely to get it from MacD's or Burger King than from a sushi place that's busy, has a good reputation and high turnover. You won't catch me at MacD's unless I'm starving and pretty desperate!
