Capers are a picked vegetable. Why wouldn't they be safe?

That's what I thought but online was saying different lol

I wanted to get this tuna dish that has capers in it to settle my craving and decided to just search it up and I was seeing not much good things online as something about parasites that live in the soil they pick them from it something like that

I guess they're just very salty so maybe not advisable to eat too many - I was crazy about salty stuff in the last few weeks, no olive was safe near me!

The only website I would take any notice of is the NHS one with regards to what you can and cant eat. A lot of other websites are american, or from other countries and they have very different guidance than 'we' do.

That site looks like it’s been cobbled together with automatically filled text
“ Finally, we can confirm you can safely eat capers while you are pregnant after washing it in clean water.”

??!
