I had it for lunch 2 days ago hun and I had it all through my pregnancy with DS. Like someone said you can't refrigerate it overnight without wrecking it, and I know the sushi deli in Garden City actually has thermometers in the sushi being sold so you can check for yourself that it is at the safe temperature. My trick is to get it early in the morning or to ask them to make me a fresh roll which they are usually more than happy to do.
I personally am more concerned by deli things in COles and places like that as I recently got food poisoning from chicken breast from coles deli.

Its the rice that is the problem with listeria and other bugs growing not the meat!!!!!!!!!!!!
More places than will have contaminated food on testing!

I would kill for some sushi but I would rather be safe than sorry I wouldn't eat it when preg
I will have DH bring some into the hospi when bubs arrives but I would rather not take the risk
I saw what happened to a friend of my sisters last year she had her bub 10 week early as a result of contracting listeria, its not a nice way to give birth
Its totaly up to the individual though but personally I wouldn't eat it when preggo

I am going to go make some now!!!
LOL this talk of sushi has made me crave tuna avo sushi hardcore!!!
This is our first and I had a friend (who owns the best sushi place in Canberra) make me fresh sushi when I went to her resturaunt and she knew I was pregnant and I could hear her yelling at them saying "make sure it's fresh! Make sure you don't touch anything else until it's made!" lol... she was def looking out for me!
I would say be very careful! Most places you can pick the gross unsafe sushi from the good quality sushi places.

I was just going to ask this question myself, as I am a HUGE sushi fan. My DD also loves it, so where ever we go she asks for it for lunch, and then of course I am tempted to sneak a piece or two! I had two pieces of tuna sushi today. I am also a tad wary about it after hearing all the warnings. I think you just need to buy it from a reputable sushi store and one where the turnover is high as mentioned. That being said I wouldnt buy myself a container for lunch, I would only sneak a piece or two of my DD's. I am so much more relaxed this time around, with my DD I followed the rules no exception!

I saw a report on TV done recently Australia wide on sushi (hand rolls) places and 4/5 places tested were contaminated with listeria, my doc told me of all the things to avoid in pregnancy hand rolls are the 1st, that rice you haven't cooked yourself, is the number one cause of food poisoning, ppl don't realise that when they get food posioning from thai or chinese etc that it's usually the rice that causes it because alot of places cook it the night before and refrigerate it. Listeria can grow in fridge temps.

You should try make it at home yourself! That way you know exactly what is going into it, and you can have any scrummy flavour you like ;)
Personally I was making sushi like a mad woman when I had DD, fresh rice made by myself, nice grilled chicken, avocado, cucumber and other goodies!
Ugh brb craving some now... lol
