Blue Cheese Food Poisoning

Blue cheese, like other soft cheeses, can be contaminated with Clostridium botulinum, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus aureus, causing food poisoning. Symptoms of food poisoning generally appear within 6 hours of consuming infected blue cheese. They may include nausea, vomiting, cramps, and diarrhea.
