Soft Cheeses

Soft cheeses like brie and camembert are delicious but can be risky due to the potential presence of listeria, especially if made from unpasteurized milk. On a cruise, where you might not know the source, it’s safer to avoid these. Instead, enjoy hard cheeses like cheddar or gouda, which are less likely to cause issues. Pair them with fresh fruit for a delightful and safe snack. Opting for hard cheeses can add both flavor and safety to your snack.
