Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsPan-fried Canadian bacon is safe with precautions during pregnancy provided it is heated thoroughly. It provides lean animal protein, B vitamins, and potassium with less saturated fat than belly bacon. The CDC and USDA instruct heating all cured deli-style meats until steaming hot to 165°F to destroy potential Listeria bacteria. Serve it hot on a whole-wheat English muffin with pasteurized melted cheddar.
