fraid not if it is uncooked as it is a mould ripened cheese therefore listeria risk

should be okay if you cook it v thoroughly and it's piping hot (tho you probably wouldn't want to do that to it being a cheeselover )

I think stilton is out, because of the mould. Hope I'm wrong...

your friend is right

unless you happen to be in france of course

a very useful page on safe cheeses to eat in pg

here

says to avoid it during pg due to it being blue veined
