Baked Camembert - can I?

[harrogatemum]

I have been salivating over a picture of baked Camembert in Nigel Slater's cookbook all day.

Is it right that if its cooked its ok to eat when pregnant?

I am 18 weeks today, there is a whole Camembert in the fridge and it would go really nice with a glass of cold white wine (just the one obviously).

Am I bad? Bear in mind this is second pregnancy so muuuuuuch more laid back.

I am v tempted.

I would but [large type disclaimer emoticon]

I have already turned the oven on.

Not meant to but I would!!!

i'm sure i read that baked,deep fried soft cheese was okay cos it deals with the bacteria if there are any.... can't remember where i saw this though, but glad you have reminded me cos next time i'm in tescos thats what i'm getting!

i ate loads of liver during first two pregnancies as it was prior to bad news about liver and had about a pound of the stuff before dd2 was born (at home by mistake)and it all reappeared along with her...on the bed

we were taken by ambulance to hospital as an emergency and when I came home the next day the neighbours had washed everything

not only the bed stuff but also all the ancient never get round to it that needs hand washing from my laundry basket

zippi what a great story! Its in the oven now.........yummmmmmmm cant wait. Boiling up some new potatoes to dip in it (DH has gone for curry with mates....)

actually I apologise totally disgusting tmi on your lovely tasty dinner thread..mind went astray I'm afraid!

I just had it - I thought it was supposed to feed 2

it was delish.

Would be fine if properly cooked, make sure it is piping hot in the middle and enjoy!

I threw caution to the wind with DS3 and had those breaded baked camenberts - he is fine btw
