Cooked Chorizo and Hair Dye

[sianycol85]

Hi, I have just found out i'm pregnant with our first child whoo hoo, roughly around 5 weeks. I have read you can't eat chorizo cold but can you eat it cooked in pasta dish?

Also I currently have blonde highlights, I'm thinking of changing my hair back brown, is it safe to have your hair coloured (I will have it done at a salon).

Thank you

Both safe afaik. Cooked anything is fine as long as it is piping hot. This also includes the forbidden cheeses and seafood as the cooking will kill the listeria, if its even present. Hair dye is totally safe, just sit somewhere really well ventilated. I gather you would have to basically bath in hair dye every day for it to have any effect. Think about pregnant hairdressers who work around the stuff all day long and are fine.

Congratulations! :)

I've eaten chorizo most days. Am 30 weeks now. It's fine
