Im craving golgappa so badly in my 2nd trimester omg. Outside wala I know is risky but agar ghar pe banao with clean water, is it ok? Just want to satisfy this craving safely.
While homemade is definitely much safer than street food, it's always good to ask your gynac if you have a sensitive stomach. Sometimes the spices can trigger severe acidity or reflux, so just be a little careful with the quantity.
If you are making them at home, they are clean, but please watch the ingredients if you have gestational diabetes. Try to avoid too much potato in the filling and use boiled chana instead, and don't drink sweetened imli water to keep your blood sugar in check.
Oh, I totally panicked about eating anything spicy during my first few weeks, but honestly, homemade golgappa is perfectly fine! Since you are making it at home, the water and ingredients are clean and safe. Just enjoy your cravings without any guilt!
Please go ahead and eat them, dear! Pregnancy cravings are so strong, and homemade golgappa is the best and safest way to satisfy them. I still remember crying for street food, but my family made them at home and it was pure bliss.
I am in my second trimester now and literally craving golgappe every single day! I've only been eating homemade ones to be safe, but does anyone else still worry about the spices or mint water causing stomach upset? How are you all managing your cravings?
My little one is a toddler now, but during my pregnancy, I lived on homemade golgappe! Homemade is 100% safe because you know the water quality is good. Just don't make the teekha paani too strong to avoid heartburn.
My doctors at my hospital always said that hygiene is the biggest concern during pregnancy, so homemade street food is the perfect solution. If you have any specific pregnancy complications, you can always drop a quick text to your hospital nutritionist just to be absolutely sure.
Since you are making them at home with clean, filtered water, it should be quite safe to enjoy. Just keep the spices mild to protect your stomach, especially after all the effort you've put into this beautiful journey. Take care of yourself.
Yes, homemade ones are absolutely safe because you are using filtered water. During my pregnancy, I used to satisfy my spicy cravings this way too. Just make sure the pudina water is not too spicy, as it might cause acidity later.
Honestly, I would worry about the hygiene of the mint leaves and the water quality even at home, so please wash everything twice! But yes, homemade is a million times safer than the market ones, so enjoy it but maybe don't eat too many at once.
