Probably not. Feta cheese is a soft cheese, which means there is a relatively high level of water activity in the final product. This high water activity means that there should be enough water in the product for some bacteria to grow. Over the course of one year, the bacteria in the cheese and any bacteria that may have contaminated the cheese would have had plenty of time to multiply to dangerous levels.

I would not eat it, who knows how many flies have been on it
Cheese that is made with unpasteurized milk is not safe to eat during pregnancy. Unpasteurized milk is not safe to consume because there is a risk that it contains a bacterium called Listeriamonocytogenes. Listeria is killed during pasteurization and cooking so the majority of the cheeses that are sold in stores are safe. However, soft cheese such as feta, brie, gorgonzola, etc. could contain Listeria. Listeria can cause problems for both the mom and her baby during pregnancy. If you are infected with Listeria, you could suffer a miscarriage, have a preterm birth, pass the infection to the baby, and in some severe cases, have a stillborn. During pregnancy, it's best to read cheese labels and only eat cheese that is labeled as "pasteurized.
Yes
Mozzarella is ok. Avoid mould-ripened soft cheeses such as Brie or Camembert, blue-veined cheeses such as Stilton. All are associated with listeria, which can lead to premature birth and miscarriage. You should also avoid mould-ripened goats' and sheep's milk cheeses, such as chèvre, although hard cheese made from these, for example halloumi and feta, should be safe. You can eat hard cheeses such as Cheshire, Wensleydale, cheddar, Edam, Gouda and Parmesan. Soft processed cheeses like Philadelphia, dairylea, mozzarella, cottage cheese, cream cheese and curd cheese are all safe even if not marked pasteurised.
Yes, as long as it is a cheese without mold such as blue cheese.
I would not do that.
no
