Does it say 'ready to eat' on the packaging? I'd heat it up, but then I don't like cold quiche.

It's up to you really I just prefer my quiche hot and even if I was to eat cold I would cook first and then let it cool

I have just recently got over my quiche craving!
I too wasn't sure about the safety of eating it cold, and I contacted Tesco for a definitive answer. As long as it says 'enjoy hot or cold' or 'ready to eat', you do not need to heat it first as it has already been cooked through.
I can highly recommend the M&S ones, 3 for £6 and the pea and ham hock one is delicious.
I had quiche cravings for 3 weeks and are hand a one a day.

I thought you weren't meant to have them cold when pregnant. You're supposed to heat it first.

It's perfectly fine to eat, hot or cold.

Shop-bought quiches have been pre-cooked, so they are fine to eat hot or cold. If it was raw, the eggs and cream would be liquid. Enjoy!

It's precooked! Otherwise the egg would be liquid as it's raw.

Yes you can eat quiche! It would be pasteurised if sitting in a shop. Trust me, it ain't fresh!

I loved quiche with dc1, dh used to regularly find a quiche stash in the fridge.
