RE: Cars, bikes and parmesan cheese in Bologna, Italy.
Hi @munchell, what are cheese mites? We had this one huge round block of cheese on our fridge once, with this weird white material stuck really deep into it. I think it was for making it rot faster.
We went to Italy two years ago and this one shop in Tuscany had these really smelly cheeses. Some of them had changed colour, they were purple and brown if I remember correctly.
I believe they are added to some of the cheeses to help give them their distinctive flavours.
They look like this.
Kind of puts you off eating cheese doesn't it?
AGGHH that is so disgusting... do they put it in all cheese?
