Gorgonzola / 4 cheeses pizza

In pregnancy: Only if… While breastfeeding: Safe

Rare, but serious if it happens

What makes it safe

Only if the gorgonzola bakes with the pizza and comes out piping hot

Why

Gorgonzola cooked until piping hot is safe: it is fine if it bakes in the oven with the pizza and comes out bubbling hot. Not if it is added raw after baking.

It changes after the birth

You can eat this again while breastfeeding: the pregnancy-specific risks (listeria, toxoplasmosis, salmonella) no longer apply after birth. Keep normal food hygiene.

Instead

  • Four-cheese pizza baked until piping hot
  • Margherita pizza
  • Pizza with mozzarella and vegetables
