Bubs can also get listeria without you having symptoms. One of the ladies in the NNU with me had her little boy at 32w5d...she had gone to get monitored because her little boy wasn't moving much, and he was delivered by c-s the next day, and was seriously ill with listeria - they didn't think he would survive. It then developed into meningitis. He is now an extremely healthy 8 month old though, but had a very rough start to life.
Jeez I am totally put off having uncles Bens now lol
I thought I was pretty carefule actually, I avoid soft cheese etc and being vego I don't need to worry about undercooked meat etc, but who woulda known about rice????
Cooked rice is fine - cold cooked rice is a breeding ground for food poisioning - this is the problem with sushi. Also you shouldn't keep cooked rice for more than a day, even the reheating process doesn't necessarily kill any bacteria. Rice is a terrible food for food poisioning being preggers obviously increases the risk of something harming your baby.
McD's thick shakes are an issue cause they use the snow freeze ice cream in them, its to do with the thickening agent - has been associated with food poisoning. Reason why normal ice cream is ok - but the snow freeze is not.
Home made humus can be made without tahini - chickpeas, garlic and lemon The Tahini has been linked to salmonella.
