I love blue cheese. I’m picky as fuck but somehow love blue cheese. Just blue cheese and some fresh crusty bread… Mmm
It’s not blue cheese! It’s mimonette, filled with bugs!
Also see: Champagne
It’s also horrific animal abuse. Actual atrocity.
I presume you know you’re lying, that’s why you named yourself jerkface
No it isn’t.
I’m so sorry, so deeply grieved to tell you, yes, it is. Please educate yourself. It’s life and death for hundreds of millions of vulnerable individuals.
I’m not taking a side in this, but I will point out saying “please educate yourself” while linking to a random YouTube video is pretty reminiscent of COVID deniers, antivaxers, and conspiracy theorists. YouTube isn’t a respectable source and the statement itself has been poisoned when used in that way.
I’m not sure what would work for everyone of course, and some people won’t be convinced either way, but linking to multiple varied sources, preferably trustworthy ones, may help your argument.

Nah, as I said I wasn’t taking a side. I criticized the form of the comment, as it was unlikely to get the desired engagement. My complaint was the delivery method of the argument, not the argument itself.
I acknowledge and agree with plenty of arguments against the meat and slaughter industry, but the comment wasn’t just downvoted because of a complaint about industry. I’m sure some did, but the comment itself just feels like many of the issues some scientists have with science communication, as well as some people with other types of debunking. The tone itself runs people off, to the point where the comment is kinda useless.
Just a personal option though; maybe it does work for some people. Also some personal bias; I prefer papers, sources, and the like over videos or documentaries. Partially because of how I am in general (I prefer tech docs over guide videos for work etc), and partially because I’m aware of many terrible documentaries that use production value to try and bamboozle people with lies.
Yeah no I’m not sitting through a 2 hour biased documentary over the stance of “cheese is ok actually”.
Either way, I’m allergic, so that checks out.
Mimolette is the cheese with bugs. (Well actually actually arachnids, but close enough)
What you’re looking for is called Cazu Marzu, and it’s illegal to sell it in most of the only region of the world that actually makes the stuff.
Based on what I can find, they are microscopic mites. You also have microscopic mites all over your face that you probably ingest at some point or another… So it’s really not that weird.
The bugs living on the cheese are called “artisons” in France. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fromage_aux_artisons?wprov=sfla1
Ok, I can’t think of a way to interpret this other than: OP eats cheese that looks like this. OP, if I’m right (and I hope I’m not) please see a physician.
Blue cheese is intentionally inoculated with mold. Specifically penicillium mold that is perfectly safe to eat.
If a cheese “naturally” develops mold, there’s a good chance it could be harmful, so don’t eat that

It’s honestly so good.
Even if it goes great with wings? Lol it looks like blue cheese to me.
Yeah, this isn’t even that bad, just a little harmless mold. It’s not like this is the one filled with live wriggling maggots
I guess the mold is a blueish color, but that’s mold. Not cheese. If a block of cheese in my fridge looks like that then I somehow managed to not return home for months and now need to throw out everything.
What… what do you think the blue part of blue cheese is?
I’ve never thought about it. I’ve never even seen the stuff before. The name turned me away from ever trying it, and this thread is only cementing that.
It is a kind of mold, but not the common (disgusting and hazardous) stuff that grows on spoiled food.
Blue cheese has mold in it, DISCUSTING!
That’s about as smart as claiming the rat on your burger might be a 1000kg animal, but it has four legs and a tail, so it must be a rat.
