Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Smoked whitefish is safe during pregnancy only when heated until steaming hot before consumption. While whitefish is an FDA Best Choice seafood that delivers omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D, refrigerated smoked seafood can harbor Listeria monocytogenes. The FDA and CDC advise pregnant women to avoid eating cold-smoked fish unless it is cooked in a dish to an internal temperature of 165°F. Add smoked whitefish to a baked breakfast frittata or hot chowder to eliminate bacterial risks.
