Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Limburger cheese is safe with precautions during pregnancy provided it is made with pasteurized milk. It contributes calcium, vitamin B12, and riboflavin, but washed-rind soft cheeses carry contamination risks if crafted from raw milk. Check the cheese wrapper to confirm pasteurization before consumption. Alternatively, cook the cheese thoroughly into hot dishes until it reaches 165°F.
