Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsFried eggs are safe with precautions during pregnancy only if fried until both the white and yolk are completely firm. Eggs deliver essential choline to support fetal brain architecture, along with vitamin B12 and high-quality protein. The CDC and FDA warn against eating eggs with runny or liquid yolks due to the danger of Salmonella food poisoning. Cook on both sides over medium heat until the yolk is fully set.
