Can I eat cooked soft cheeses??????

**marcelsmum** · 22-08-2007 11:43

OK girls I am really craving a spinach and cheese pastry,,, or a chicken cordonbleau with brie....

Does anyone know if it is OK to eat soft cheeses when they are cooked... Does the heat kill the baddies?????

Anyone know... (or alternatively does anyone know how to cook a spinach and cheese pastry using a safe cheese???)

Thanks

You sure can eat cooked soft cheese - it's how one of my friend's got through her pregnancies without going insane as she is a soft cheese nut!!

You can eat any cheese that has been pasterized (sp?) You will find the bries and camenberts in Australia are. It says on the packet. If you were in france its another story!

Well brie isnt in the pastries isn't it usually ricotta or fetta.

I was addicted to these whilst pregnant mm with heaps of tomato sauce!!

I am SOOO angry to find this out now with only 3 weeks until I am due!! My boyfriend has been so strict making me not eat spinach and fetta rolls etc. And to find out I can eat fried brie and soft cheeses if they are in hot sauces

....I know what I am eating tonight that's for sure!

I live on spinach and ricotta EVERYTHING and did through my last pregnancy too... Nothing wrong with me or my baby!

Once it is heated above 75 degrees you can eat it. You can evenget a pepperoni fix by having it piping hot on pizza!

Do check the labels for pausterised bries/camemberts/fetta's etc. Some are, some are not - just choose carefully.
