If you’re pregnant and have a sudden craving for mozzarella, you may be wondering if it’s safe to eat. Mozzarella is a soft cheese made from cow’s milk, and is generally considered safe to eat during pregnancy. However, there are a few things to keep in mind when consuming mozzarella during pregnancy.\n\n

First of all, make sure that the mozzarella you’re eating is fully cooked. Raw or undercooked mozzarella can contain harmful bacteria that can cause food poisoning. If you’re eating mozzarella as part of a dish (such as in a salad or on pizza), make sure that the overall dish is cooked thoroughly before consuming.\n\n

Secondly, avoid buying pre-packaged shredded mozzarella, as this type of cheese is more likely to harbor dangerous bacteria. If you do buy shredded mozzarella, be sure to cook it thoroughly before eating.\n\nFinally, avoid consuming large amounts of mozzarella (or any other type of cheese) during pregnancy.

While most cheeses are low in fat and calories, they can still contribute to weight gain if consumed in excess. So enjoy your mozzarella cravings in moderation!<\/p>\n \n
