News Cheese newsflash!

This is Watser? with the latest in cheese-related news. Or olds in this case.

Quote:
An international team said Wednesday they found proof for this theory from chemical analysis of fatty acid deposits on unglazed pottery pieces excavated in Poland, dating from about 7,000 years ago.

“The presence of abundant milk fat in these specialised vessels, comparable in form to modern cheese strainers, provides compelling evidence for the vessels having been used to separate fat-rich milk curds from the lactose-containing whey,” the researchers wrote.

It turns out that the fungi in cheeses like blue cheese aren’t just sitting there, waiting for you to eat them. They’re getting it on.

I pulled out an old piece of cheap, grocery store Swiss the other day and the mold on it was so complete it looked like the rind on brie. All white, too, no red or green spots. I was oddly impressed by that.

People who eat a lot of cheese tend to also burn a lot of calories running away with their hands in the air. I doubt that they took that into consideration.

In perhaps the most delicious heist in recent history, Eater reports that a mysterious band of French robbers made off with more than 8818 pounds of Comté cheese last week.

The dastardly dairy theft occurred in the country’s Goux-les-Usiers region, which is in Doubs in eastern France. According to the Telegraph, French police were called after the bandits weaseled their way through a store's barbed-wire fence and used a crowbar to break into the establishment. They swiped about 100 wheels of Comté, which officials believe they’ll likely try to sell on the black market. (Yes, a dairy black market exists; cheese is the most stolen food product in the world, and is often re-sold to other markets or restaurants.)
