SPEAKING OF CHEESE
Don't. Don't even think about this one. Seriously.
(We refuse to thank The Perts. We are going to start a new category -- Do Not Click This Link -- just for this item.)

ohhh YUMMMM!!!

Now why was there a link and a warning to not click the link. I have extra eye bleach if anyone needs it, I listened and did not click.

When disturbed, the larvae can jump for distances up to 15 cm (6 inches),

this was a planned attack...right before lunch, eh Judi?
Posted by: Chaz | 11:51 AM on July 31, 2006
OK, for once I listened, and didn't click, and am being rewarded by just reading the comments from y'all.
wheeeeee....

I think I've made this cheese before. That was negligence, though.
Posted by: Steven Jens | 11:54 AM on July 31, 2006
I didn't click the link either. For once, I listened.

Food abuse.
I am sad. Very, very, sad.

I just can't believe people actually EAT this...
"Some people clear the larvae from the cheese before consuming; others do not."

Ewww! Right before I have to leave for lunch, too... *shudder*
Posted by: Trix | 12:00 PM on July 31, 2006
Oh, Judi. That was just unkind. I'm tellin' Dave.
Posted by: nannie | 12:03 PM on July 31, 2006
Well, what makes this one less gross is that unlike Friday's soy sauce, there's little chance I've ever had bug cheese unknowingly. On the other hand, we've all eaten bad cheese, and who hasn't eaten bug poo?

"with some liquid (called "lagrima") seeping out."
The obstetrician who delivered my child was Dr. Lagrimas.
Posted by: Straw | 12:07 PM on July 31, 2006
Straw, when disturbed can your child jump 15cms?
Posted by: fivver | 12:09 PM on July 31, 2006
What is wrong with these people? Cheese in their maggots?! Have you ever....?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | 12:10 PM on July 31, 2006
Some people clear the larvae from the cheese before consuming; others do not.
I hope I do not know any of the "other" people....

I actually used to like cheese. not so much, anymore.
Posted by: southerngirl | 12:15 PM on July 31, 2006
I love cheese...only not the maggotty kind...thank you very mucho...
Posted by: Siouxie | 12:18 PM on July 31, 2006
"Lagrima" probably has the same roots as "lacrima" which means tears. That means the cheese is crying from being so badly abused.
Also, re: "It is typically consumed with Sardinian bread (pane carasau) and Cannonau, a strong red wine." That wine would have to be REAL strong and consumed beforehand, I think.
Posted by: ScottMGS | 12:19 PM on July 31, 2006
While serving in the gulf war, I stopped at a McDonalds restaurant and ordered chicken and rice. The "chicken" was pigeon (it was ok)and the rice was ok if you could catch it. ISIANMTU
Posted by: Wyo Cowboy | 12:20 PM on July 31, 2006
Usually consumed with wine? You don't say? I'm assuming copious amounts. And that it actually precedes ingestion of said (for lack of a better term) "cheese."

This would probably delicious with some nouc mam [CAUTION: do NOT click if you are bothered by these kinds of things]. This is actually delicious stuff that I grew up using and still keep around.
Posted by: CJrun(s away) | 12:47 PM on July 31, 2006
Wyo, I had the "chicken" in a McD's in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. It's really pretty good.
Posted by: blurkernomore | 12:47 PM on July 31, 2006
Wyo, Blurk??? if the "chicken" is pigeon (of the pre-exploding kind judging by the temps over there), what's in the burger?? or what IS the burger??

Fivver, my daughter has been obsessed with jumping lately.
Posted by: Straw | 12:58 PM on July 31, 2006
Siouxie, I've learned when eating in some foreign countries, if you gotta ask, you probably don't wanna know.
Posted by: blurkernomore | 01:00 PM on July 31, 2006
eaten with pungent red wine?? duh!!!! bottle s and bottles before consuming it..
Posted by: grammrsnob | 01:04 PM on July 31, 2006
nouc nam is no where near this, this, ...., gaaaaaaack, retch & shuudddder - oh god, thank you for the Italians banning this - next we'll be seeing it shipped to the US & we'll be told we are anti-Sicilian if we don't gobble it up!! LOL!

ahhh...gotcha blurk...the most foreign place I've gone is mexico -and even there I'm a bit weary of the local cuisine...

Stormy, I purposely didn't go into details on how nuoc mam is made and the wiki definition is pretty sparse on it. And I won't, 'cause it's just plain gross. But I love the stuff, so it goes to show you. I bet this cheese is pretty good stuff, excepting the leaping bits; that's just wrong! [I'll bet making cheese toast would slow 'em down.... Nope; now I gotta clean the oven]
Posted by: CJrun | 01:36 PM on July 31, 2006
pass the eye bleach please. and a barf bag.

I clicked but only read the first sentence.
I was going to have a cheese sandwich for lunch, but now, probably not....
Posted by: Eleanor | 01:39 PM on July 31, 2006
Ooooh, I should have known better than to click on that link right after lunch and with a mildly upset stomach... I didn't hurl, but I daresay I turned a delicate shade of green.
The Sardinians must be a brave people indeed to eat that cheese. I'm kind of glad that my ancestors come from elsewhere in Italy, though... eeek.
Lagrima (with an accent aigu on the first A) means "tear" in Spanish. Lacrima (no accent) is the Italian form.
Posted by: Marie in Kourou | 01:42 PM on July 31, 2006
I like nuoc mam, too, CJ. I didn't know about the ingredients in it, though now that I do, I don't think I'll stop eating it.
Posted by: Marie in Kourou | 01:44 PM on July 31, 2006
did my response with toe cheese dfinaition get deleted?
Posted by: Chaz | 01:50 PM on July 31, 2006
Some people clear the larvae from the cheese before consuming (TMI); others do not. Double TMI!!
24 - "I hope I do not know any of the "other" people..." agreed!
Posted by: MOTW | 02:00 PM on July 31, 2006
Chaz - it's on the "finicky blog" thread...I know...I responded...again thanks!!! *gag*

I had a great red wine named Lacrima Christe (tears of Christ) in Pompeii. The grapes are grown on Mt. Vesuvius.
Posted by: fivver | 02:27 PM on July 31, 2006
That's nuthin,' last summer a local paper ran an article about all the maggots located inside several mexican 'lunch trucks.'
Dunno what kind of cheese they use, though...probably queso de puko...

LOVE it.
So much so, that my AIM ID is AngECheese.
But I refuse to eat any cheese that is recommended only eaten with eye protection.

'It's the most beautiful gift you can give a Sardinian shepherd.'
Deep into the night, far up the side of the mountain, through the gentle breeze, you can hear the sweet voice of a Sardinian shepherd whispering to Formaggio Marcio: "I sure wish I could quit you, but I am perversely curious as to how you would taste drenched in Hair Soy Sauce...."

Candy,
Thanks mucho for that "AVISO" about the maggot-ridden Mexican Lunch Trucks. I do a lot of work in/near construction sites in Florida, so the taco trucks are a very common sight. Thus far, though, I've never actually bought food from one, though I've considered it before.
Never will consider it again. Ay caramba.

If no one else will say it, I will - I hear that it tastes like chicken.
Decomposing, maggot-infested chicken - but chicken.

Oh my... why is it that I never listen to the unsolicited advice given in emails to not click on these links...
Although it went well with the column... If you ever want to lose weight, read that description again and see how much you want to eat afterwards...
Wiggly cheese anyone? (If the worms can jump 6 inches... I wonder if bored shepherds ever have distance contests?)
