Stick to pasteurized cheeses, period. Hard cheeses like cheddar or regular processed cheese from the supermarket are perfectly fine. Avoid raw milk artisanal cheeses or anything from local open markets.
My pregnancy tracker app had a whole section on this! Safe options include hard cheeses like cheddar and parmesan, plus any pasteurized cream cheese or mozzarella. The app recommended checking the label for 'pasteurized milk' before buying.
Hey, don't stress too much about cheese! Just buy standard brands like Amul paneer or processed cheese, as they are pasteurized and totally safe. Just stay away from fancy unpasteurized soft cheeses and enjoy your pizza in peace!
You can safely eat pasteurized cheeses like cheddar, mozzarella, and processed cheese slices. I ate lots of paneer and processed cheese during my pregnancy for calcium. Just avoid unpasteurized soft cheeses like blue cheese or feta.
