Brie

Brie is OK during pregnancy only when the label says pasteurized — unpasteurized soft cheese is a real Listeria risk. UK guidance goes further and recommends mould-ripened cheeses like brie only when cooked until steaming hot, so baked brie is the safest way to enjoy it.

What to do:Pasteurized only — safest cooked until steaming hot.

Confirm personal decisions with your OB, midwife, or pharmacist, especially for medicines, supplements, allergies, symptoms, or a high-risk pregnancy.
