   In the place I usually go to though they'll cook it up on the hotplate almost right in front of you though, mind... I haven't had a kebab in ages anyway, but this post got me thinking about them.

   Well I had a lamb one today and asked them to make sure it was all really cooked and hot...I don't think they did do the hotplate though so I'll swap places...
 
Apparently there is a good place near us that cooks on the hotplate...
 I'm constantly amazed at what I've put in mouth to then find out I shouldn't!  I thought avoid shellfish, chicken, deli foods/stuff sitting out...and I'd be fine...then one of my workmoates looked horrified that I said I was thinking of grabbing a vegetarian roll from across the road at the local cafe and informed me how I couldn't.  I thought it would be fine as everything is fresh that day and they would even make one fresh for me but noooooooo.

   This is going to sound bad, since I'm in a grumpy selfish mood, but don't take to heart too much what other people say you can and can't eat ! You know your own body better than they do, and I'm not saying to abandon *all* protocol or anything... but if having stuff made fresh is a no no, then I'd scream ! I have the cafe in my building make my sandwiches for me if I buy one from them, and haven't had any issues at all. I'm also wondering why we have to avoid chicken? I love chicken ! Anyway, it really all comes down to what *you* feel comfortable about eating and what you don't.

   Chicken is one of the main causes of food poisoning for pretty much anyone.  The reason pregnant women are supposed to avoid it unless they know exactly when it was cooked (and that it has been reheated fully if necessary) is to avoid that nasty bacteria.
 
 Having said that, I ate chicken (including KFC) often right through both my pregnancies.  I just made sure I knew who cooked it and didn't buy any from a deli or cafe when I wasn't 100% sure it had been cooked that day.

   I was really anti-chicken with Maya, but not coz it wasn't safe, more because the smell of it made me sick. But it is generally safe as long as it is cooked properly and eaten straight away. I wouldn't eat left over chicken either even if it was reheated just to be safe.
 In saying that, when I was preg at christmas I wouldn't eat any takeaways unless they were vegetarian (didn't trust anyone else to cook meat for me). I'm such a geek.
 Plus, when I was first preg with Maya I was so clueless, I didn't even know what listeria was, I craved luncheon sausage and cheese sanwiches and ate huge piles of them. I was horrified when I realised, but Maya turned out fine.
 Sometimes I think I know too much, and it's not always a good thing...

   ???? that's funny Liz!
 
 Hey Emma - i was the same - before i found out i was having Paris i would come home from work and make huge plates full of snax crackers with luncheon and cheese on them and scoff the lot - was sooo worried oncei found out why i was craving that stuff.  Another annoying craving was for Ham sandwhiches - it was constant!

   I'm so off meat of pretty much any variety.  Chicken makes me barf, as does the smell of mince cooking.  I can handle steak, as long as its a really good cut with no fat.  Oh, and I know what you mean about the luncheon!  I'm craving it terribly, even bought some in the groceries yesterday, but am too scared to eat it.
