Ate a cold macaroni pie

[ClaireCar90]

Hi,

not sure if I’m over thinking. I am 10 weeks pregnant and ate a cold macaroni pie will it be ok? I didn’t even think about heating it up as I’ve been struggling to eat with really back vomiting. Then when I seen that I wolfed it down. Will I be ok?

What specifically do you think may cause an issue?

You'll be fine.

It's all cooked before you bought it I assume? You'll be fine

What on earth is a macaroni pie?

Yeah was all cooked but just cold when I bought and purchased it. Thank you both

Literally macaroni in a pie 😅 it’s very popular in Scotland baba

The cheese being reheated 🫠 sorry I just panicked

Like Mac and cheese or topped with mash/pastry?

Maybe it’s because I am from SE England but I’ve never heard of it either.

Then it poses no particular danger unless it’s being sat around for days.

Literally macaroni in a pie. No mash or anything x

Food of the gods when you're in the mood.

Unfortunately, I've developed a gluten intolerance and can no longer risk eating them.

Cold food is absolutely fine, you really don’t need to heat everything. There are only very few things such as raw fish or meat or certain cheese should be avoided unless cooked.

So you've found something you can eat that doesn't make you sick? Quick, order a whole crate full!
Good that you're eating @ClaireCar90. Won't do you or the baby any harm at all. 😋

Really sorry op but I'm obviously from the same part of the world as you and I thought, good luck explaining what a macaroni pie is 😂
But you'll be fine, it's very low risk type food.

I want one now!

Sounds yum! It’s absolutely fine.

The above should help op.

Haha I know. I couldn’t believe it when I walked past and thought I need to eat that. Usually I’m trying to force a dry piece of food down my throat 😅😅

No its in casing (sp) Google them you will either be pleasantly surprised or horrified 😀

Op you will be fine carbs is good for the nausea and it's all cooked so there isn't an issue

It's like a scotch pie but with macaroni cheese in it instead of meat

Hahaha I forgot us Scot’s we’re a bit weird when it came to food haha 😅😅

I’m not pregnant but a macaroni pie (hot or cold) sounds AMAZING 😭 I need to make one.

Yes all good, and pleased for you that you saw something that made you want to eat, it can be so difficult in early pregnancy when you have bad nausea.

I miss macaroni pies! 🥧

Sorry, never heard of a scotch pie either! 😂

I'm off to Google a macaroni pie, sounds lush (I only opened the thread to see what it was tbh)

OP, does it say 'must be heated before eating' on the packet? A surprising number of things say 'can be enjoyed hot or cold' when you read the small print!

Scotch pie has minced meat in it
