Ordered a sandwich the other day and only after eating i realised it had cream cheese in it. Now im a bit worried since i keep hearing soft cheese is a no during pregnancy. Anyone knows if this one is ok?
Cream cheese from a sealed branded pack is usually safe yaar, since its pasteurised. I had it on toast quite often. Just avoid anything soft and unpasteurised, and store it properly.
My doctor said cream cheese is generally fine because its made from pasteurised milk, unlike some soft mould ripened cheeses. Just check the label says pasteurised and keep it refrigerated. The ones to avoid are soft unpasteurised cheeses.
