Pregnancy Foods: What to Eat, What to Pass


Pregnancy comes with its own set of nutrition rules, but then there's also an added safety issue for foods.

The do's and don'ts can be rather confusing: Soft cheeses are off-limits. What about cream cheese? Fish is OK in moderation. What about California rolls? And lunch meats are verboten. How about other meats?

Take a look at these menu descriptions and determine whether you're making safe and delicious food choices. The rules are the same at home and in a restaurant, but when you're not the one cooking, you need to pay extra attention to food.

Answer "Eat It" or "Pass" for each menu description.



  A footlong coney dog: Our all-beef dog is served with chili, cheese, onions, mustard and pickles--the works
Eat It!
Pass!

  Smoked salmon quiche: Nova lox, scallions and dill are mixed with our rich egg and cream mixture, then baked in a flaky crust.
Eat it!
Pass!

  California rolls (sushi rolls with imitation crab, avocado, and cucumber)
Eat it!
Pass!

  Sashimi or nigiri platters
Eat it!
Pass!

  A Greek salad: A heaping bowl of lettuce topped with cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, feta cheese and topped with our special Greek vinaigrette.
Eat it!
Pass!

  A grilled swordfish steak served with lemon wedges, steamed broccoli and garlic mashed potatoes
Eat it!
Pass!

  Low-fat cream cheese on a whole-wheat bagel
Eat it!
Pass!
