was eating an in date protein yoghurt pouch this morning (expiry 19.01), and initially thought it tasted ok but as i got further in i felt it tasted 'fizzy' on my tongue and so may have gone bad (it smelt ok).
I discarded it after eating around half-ish. Im 16 weeks pregnant .... whats the worst that could happen? maybe a little food poisoning if that?

I know listeria is a stretch, but probably the one I worry about most as it may not show symptoms and can take a while to show any

most likely, everything will be ok and probably wont even get sick...right..?

I'm sure you'll be fine.
I find my taste buds change in pregnancy and a lot of things I normally enjoy start to taste 'off' (never sure if they are actually spoiled or if it's just me)

It'll be your taste buds, the yoghurt will be fine! For example, I normally love coriander, but since being pregnant it tastes like pure soap to me. Previously I've never understood why people who dislike it claim it's because it tastes soapy, but I get it now 😂

Your tastebuds and sense of smell go really weird in pregnancy. Don't panic you'll be fine.
