This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

I've never had bleu cheese, gorgonzola, or roquefort that tasted like dirt smell.
Well, either my dirt or my cheese smells wrong then, because they never smell similar to me.
Petrichor is the word for that smell!
I love intentionally moldy cheese. Particularly goat cheese.
Well, today I intentionally ate moldy cheese. It was gouda and the mold was a grayish green tone and not very fuzzy.
Besides the taste I haven't had any negative effects so far. I melted it on a pan to at least "cook" it a little. But I could tell there were big chunks of mold due to the particular dirt flavour.
Gouda, first of all, is not a type of cheese that should be moldy.
Also, cheeses that are made to be moldy, don't just become moldy on their own. The mold is added in the production process, and is a type of mold that usually wouldn't have appeared on the cheese anyhow.
Bro just ate hooded garage cheese
Gourmet black mold 🤌
Yeah, um, don’t do that. It could kill you.
You probably shouldn't eat that kind of moldy cheese. It's hard to say what type of fungus you just ate. It isn't the same as what is done intentionally.
Gimme some Stilton all day.
The fuck you mean, mossy?
I meant moldy lmao
Clearly you haven't cultivated cheese moss before
Moldy cheese tastes like mold.
