    Precut watermelon during pregnancy?

    I'm a little bit confused re: watermelon and listeria. If I cut up watermelon for snacks tomorrow, packing the section I'm taking, can I fridge the remainder to eat the next day if it all goes back in the fridge until I'm ready to eat more the next day?

    Yes. That's fine. The precaution thing is if you don't know who's handled it. Always wash the fruit etc before using it. It's probably best to buy a whole melon and cut it yourself.

    Is watermelon a listeria risk? I have been eating heaps of it lately.
