Is it safe to have 1-2 pickled Gherkins (Tesco brand) in pregnancy?

It's a classic American pregnancy craving. You'll be fine

Yes they are a popular craving and reading this has just triggered mine! Tuna, gherkins and olives for dinner tonight now lol

Can you give us an idea why you might think it wasn't, OP? Tesco or otherwise they are fine (although must admit I didn't eat any of my own home-pickled stuff in pregnancy just in case I'd cocked up somewhere along the line).

Thanks everyone for the reassurance.

I read a bit saying may not be good, but I am highly craving hence asked :)

Where did you read that?

Of course they are. Stick to the nhs avoid list, do not google

Of course. Stick to the NHS list only. It’s a minefield otherwise
