Cooked is fine. I didn't take a chance on the fresh ones but I understand they are frozen to kill bacteria and fine to eat from a reputable source.

It's fine. I have eaten piles of veggie sushi in my pregnancies. I love sushi. The only part of sushi you are meant to be avoiding is raw fish. The pickled ginger and starchy goodness of the rice i find great for nausea.

I don't like the texture of the cooked meat or fish ones, i usually go for avocado or something like that.
