A small amount of feta occasionally is generally tolerated, though its higher salt content (from brining) is worth being mindful of.
Feta is brined in salt water as part of its preparation, giving it a notably higher sodium content than many other cheeses. This doesn't make it dangerous in a small treat-sized amount, but it's a reason to keep portions modest.
