What are all the cheeses that are considered soft?

Cheeses made in the United States must be made from pasteurized milk (pasteurization kills the listeria organism), so those are fairly safe. Imported soft cheeses are another story. These may include Brie, Camembert, feta, goat, Limburger, Montrachet, Neufchatel, queso fresco, and Pont-Leveque. Listeria can also be found in unpasteurized semi-soft cheeses (slightly more solid cheeses that do not grate easily and are often coated with wax to preserve moisture and extend shelf life). Semi-soft cheeses include Asiago, Belle Paese, bleu, brick, Gorgonzola, Havarti, Muenster, Port-Salut, Roquefort, and Taleggio. Listeria is not found in hard cheeses such as Cheddar, or in processed cheeses such as cottage cheese, or in yogurt.

Doctor told me almost all Feta made in the US is pasteurized and is safe.
