I don't think there is a law against eating cheese while pregnant, though. Not even drinking alcohol seems to be illegal? Everybody is free to google and make up their own mind. Not sure about the listeria, btw, if the risk is simply higher for embryos, or if the concern really is a general listeria infection like any adult could get? Maybe you don't hear a lot about listeria infections because for non-pregnant people it is not a big deal that would be newsworthy? Depending on the parents, even small risks to the unborn may be deemed unacceptable. Like a three in thousand risk of miscarriage? I've seen many doctors recommend a blood test with those risks, and many parents deciding against it because of the high risk. To me personally, a risk of 1:1000 of dying would seem rather extreme, too. I guess it depends on how you think about unborn life.
