Pregnant women can eat many types of sandwiches at Subway IF they're heated up until hot, not just warm. Heating up sandwich fillings like deli meat and/or salad kills listeria if the temperature goes above 165F, or 75C.
Everything from Subway's steak and cheese, oven-roasted chicken, meatball, and tuna sandwiches are just fine for pregnant women to consume, Dr. Phillips explains.
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) advises that pregnant women "avoid eating hot dogs, lunch meats, cold cuts, other deli meats (such as bologna), or fermented or dry sausages unless they are heated to an internal temperature of 165°F or until steaming hot just before serving."
The safest course of action to protect your baby is to avoid deli meats until after pregnancy. If you plan to eat deli meats anyway, we highly suggest cooking them until they are steaming. If the meat is heated to steaming, any present Listeria bacteria should no longer be alive.
Non-dried deli meats such as bologna, roast beef and turkey breast.
Fast food usually contains large amounts of sugar, salt, fat, additives and preservatives. These ingredients aren't ideal for a healthy diet, especially while you're pregnant.
Best bets: Menu items with grilled chicken, which is 100-percent breast meat with no fillers or additives. The Market Salad with grilled chicken provides a nice balance of protein, carbohydrates, and fat and features plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables (like berries, cabbage, red and green apples, and strawberries).
Restaurants such as Subway recommends that pregnant women eat the following non-luncheon meat items such as meatball, steak and cheese, roasted chicken, and tuna (limit 2 servings a week). Do not eat refrigerated pates or meat spreads.
Hummus and veggie sandwich.
“Hummus is a go-to for pregnant moms. It offers plant-based protein and can be combined with all sorts of veggies,” Largeman-Roth says. Slather it on whole grain bread and top with shredded carrots, sliced cucumber, and baby spinach for a tasty and oh-so-healthy pregnancy lunch.
McDonalds Breakfast Items – Eating McMuffins, Griddles, Biscuits or Bagels in Pregnancy. Ensure that the egg is cooked through, including the yolk.
