Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Is Port Salut cheese safe during pregnancy? Choose one made with pasteurized milk. CDC lists soft cheese made from unpasteurized milk as riskier, and its safer column includes pasteurized soft cheeses heated to 165°F or until steaming hot. CDC: safer food choices in pregnancy

CDC's chart does not name Port Salut, and FDA notes some cheeses, especially local or specialty ones, are not made with pasteurized milk, so check the label. Melting it into a hot dish fits CDC's safer column most clearly. FDA: dairy and eggs for moms-to-be
