1st Trimester

Of course I am craving.... (vent)

Mexican.  And I know when I go get it I will be tempted to eat queso!  Arg.  I will cut anyone's head off at my table who orders it and eats it in front of me....

 

Vent over.

    Queso is fine.  If you're nervous you can ask the restaurant manager whether the cheese in the queso is pasteurized.  I can say with 99.999999% certainty that it is!  Plus the heat would kill any bacteria anyway.

    It is only UNpasteurized cheese that you can't eat, and even brie/stilton/goat/etc. are typically pasteurized in the US.  I enjoyed some delicious funky cheese yesterday!

    Just check labels.  I can pretty much guarantee that the queso at the mexican restaurant is 100% fine.

  • The only issue with cheese is that cheese that is not pasturized should not be eaten.  Most commercially available cheese in the US is pasturized-even if it is soft.  And, if it is heated...it would kill the bacteria in it anyway....so enjoy.
  • Ummm....don't know where you read that but queso is just fine. I had it all the time when I was pregnant and DS didn't come out with extra toes or anything. Trust this: if the Dr or MW doesn't take the time to say "don't eat _________" then it is probably not something that will harm you.

    Queso is more than fine.  In fact, it should be required during first trimester.

    Now I want it  =o(

  • Just wanted to drop in and say thank you... you just helped me figure out what DH and I will be having for dinner... MEXICAN!!! omg... i cant wait... i think i have some chips and salsa around here somewhere to tide me over...
  • Queso is fine as long as you eat it cooked and hot.  Queso that you buy in the grocery store is pasturized so it's okay.  Just don't eat queso cheese cold or uncooked.

    Now you are making me crave it too!  We are making buffalo chicken dip tonight and it has blue cheese, but since it's cooked, it's okay.
