Pizza: Storage, Freezing, Reheating and Pregnancy Answers

This page pulls together the 5 pizza answers on the site: how long it keeps, whether you can freeze it, whether you can reheat it, how long it can be left out and where it stands in pregnancy. The table gives the short answer for each; the page behind each row gives the full reasoning, the source and the exceptions.

In pregnancy: Yes — pizza is safe during pregnancy. Even Brie, goat's cheese or blue cheese toppings are fine when the pizza is cooked until piping hot.

Worth knowing: Leftover pizza is a cooked, cooled product with a dry base and melted cheese, and FoodKeeper gives it just 1–2 months in the freezer. Shop-bought frozen pizza is listed separately at 12 months: it is made and frozen fresh and kept at -18°C throughout (keep frozen, cook as directed).
