Say Cheese

"Before empires and royalty, before pottery and writing, before metal tools and weapons - there was cheese."

Few foods get peoples' attention (and steal their hearts ♥︎) like cheese. Hundreds of varieties of cheese are produced around the globe; there are cheeses made from cow's, goat's and sheep's milk, there are hard cheeses, like pecorino and parmesan, soft cheeses like chèvre, blue cheeses, aged cheeses, plus all kinds of delicious cheese products (cheese curds, cream cheese, and pimiento, to name a few). Today, there are over over 2,000 varieties of cheeses. Approximately 10 pounds of milk is required to make one pound of cheese. If it wasn't for cheese a lot of milk would have been wasted.
