The day Sarah found out she was pregnant, she felt an overwhelming surge of love and responsibility surge through her. As she cradled her growing belly, dreams of delicious Snickers bars flooded her mind. She remembered how, as a child, one bite could transform a gloomy day into a sweet adventure. But now, things were different. She paused and wondered, "Is Snickers safe for my baby?"
