Title.

It feels like such a waste.

EDIT: This is the type of cheese I am referring to. It comes wrapped in a piece of plastic then bundled together with x more and all of them get covered in plastic

    you realize that cheese is already “funky”? that’s how it’s made in the first place… by letting milk curdle. so, cheese doesn’t really go bad/spoil, as it already has gone bad when it was milk. over long periods of time (months), it can grow mold if stored improperly.

      In this context, “funk” = microorganisms that can harm you if consumed. The bacteria used in producing the cheese are safe to consume.

      Not all cheeses are funky, and funk that is not characteristic of a certain style of cheese is considered a defect.
