  • Deli Meat Avoidance?

    QUESTION

    Dear Midwife,
    In what meats is Listeria a problem? Is it all the sandwich meats like you get at Subway? Are those all to be avoided? Is it the processed meats that you buy to make your own sandwich from the pre-packaged section?

    QUESTION

    Dear Midwife,
