I am 15 weeks pregnant and was sitting here eating panettone (which i have since I was young same one from Asda) and my friend said she could really smell alcohol (shes a non-drinker always has been) so on a hunch i googled the ingredients it says it contains alcohol?! I have literally been eating this since I was young its the Classic Panettone from Asda. I didnt even think to check hence eating it since I was young. So looks like I will adding that to the list of things I cannot eat this Christmas 😅

Don’t be ridiculous - of course you can eat it when you’re pregnant. The amount of alcohol in it is miniscule. Most of it evaporates during cooking. Even if you ate the whole thing I doubt it would equate to a sip of wine in terms of the amount of alcohol in it.

You can eat panettone. Don't worry.

Any alcohol in any food will be negligible.

My DM apparently got addicted to Snowballs while pregnant with me! And SIL was prescribed Guinness..... Ah, the old days.....

I can't remember giving up anything much whilst I was pregnant. I don't drink and don't smoke, so that was it really!

I just looked up the classic panettone from asda and the alcohol listed is so far down the list that there must only be a dribble in there

Ripe fruit has alcohol in it, like banana or grape, small amounts.

It’s fine. I’m a recovering alcoholic and I love a panettone! My kids love a panettone. I eat it almost daily in December.

As long as you aren’t eating 6 a day trying to get drunk, you’re fine.
