Cheese can be consumed during pregnancy, but it is important to keep in mind some recommendations to do it safely:
- It should be hard cheeses.
- Always remove the rind.
- Cheese should be kept in the refrigerator.
- In the case of soft cheeses, they can be eaten as long as they have not been made with raw milk, so you will have to look carefully at the labeling and also consume them soon.
- Cheeses that are already sliced or grated cannot be consumed.
More generally, it is important to remember that, due to the risk of listeriosis, raw milk or dairy products made from raw or unpasteurized milk should not be consumed during pregnancy.
