But that's American processed food for you: Artificial flavors, artificial colors, , too much fat, too much salt, too many calories, no vitamins, no minerals, causes cancer.

These larvae are deliberately introduced to the cheese, promoting an advanced level of fermentation and breaking down of the cheese's fats. The texture of the cheese becomes very soft, with some liquid (called lagrima, Sardinian for "tears") seeping out. The larvae themselves appear as translucent white worms, about 8 mm (0.3 in) long.[2] When disturbed, the larvae can launch themselves for distances up to 15 cm (6 in). Some people clear the larvae from the cheese before consuming while others do not. The cheese, along with one of its Sardinian makers, Giovanni Gabbas, received attention on the US TV program Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern. Zimmern described the taste of the cheese as "so ammoniated" that "it scorches your tongue a bit." The cheese is known to leave an aftertaste for a duration of up to several hours.[3] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casu_marzu Similar milk cheeses notable for containing living insect larvae are produced in several Italian regions and in Corsica, France.[15][16][17] Cacie' Punt (formaggio punto) in Molise Casgiu merzu in Corsica Casu du quagghiu in Calabria Gorgonzola co-i grilli in Liguria Frmag punt in Apulia Furmai nis (formaggio Nisso) in Emilia Romagna Marcetto or cace fraceche in Abruzzo Salterello in Friuli Venezia Giulia bross ch'a marcia in Piemonte casu puntu in Salento Several other regional varieties of cheese with fly larvae are produced in Europe. For example, goat-milk cheese is left to the open air until P. casei eggs are naturally laid in the cheese.[5] Then it is aged in white wine, with grapes and honey, preventing the larvae from emerging, giving the cheese a strong flavour. In addition, other regions in Europe have traditional cheeses that rely on live arthropods for ageing and flavouring, such as the German Milbenkäse and French Mimolette, both of which rely on cheese mites. That did not make it sound the least bit more appealing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
