Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Canned pimentos are safe and nutritious for pregnant women in moderation. They contribute vitamin A, vitamin C, and vibrant color, and commercial canning ensures they are microbiologically safe. Check labels for sodium levels, and rinse the pimentos in cool water to reduce excess salt. Toss chopped canned pimentos into pasteurized egg salads, brown rice, or warm vegetable sautés.
