Unpasteurized cheese in Japan

Hello,
Does anyone know if unpasteurized cheese is common in Japan? I am 25 weeks pregnant and traveling in Tokyo. Unfortunately I picked up a cheese pastry (sort of like a hot pocket?) from an upscale grocery store and realized after eating it that it contained Gorgonzola or some other type of blue cheese. I had thought when buying it that it would only contain hard-type cheeses, which are safe for pregnant women (soft unpasteurized cheeses, however, are not). I microwaved it for a minute but Ifm still freaking out about the listeria risk!

I was pregnant with my first child last year in Japan too! All I can say dont worry too much, everything will be ok! the risk of listeria is very law even if it would have been raw cheese, which I really doubt! Wish you a happy time and enjoy your pregnancy ;) Btw if you dont feel any different in the next couple of hours everything is fine!
