Top 10 Fascinating Facts About Cheese

Posted by Miss Cellania in Food & Drinks on October 5, 2009 at 11:24 am

This list, researched by a cheese fan, encompasses a great portion of the history of cheese as well as the different varieties and how they are made. Who knew you could buy cheese made from moose milk?

A farm in Bjurholm, Sweden actually makes moose cheese. The lactation period of moose is short, lasting from about June to August, and the farm, owned by Christer and Ulla Johansson, keeps three moose that produce only 300 kilograms of cheese per year. The moose cheese sells for roughly US$1000 per kilogram.

Before you faint over the price, remember that a kilogram is more than two pounds! Link -via Unique Daily

Baierman of YesButNoButYes has a nifty post about some of the most unusual menorah designs. I particularly like this blue moose menorah by Canadian artists Don Gidley and Sue Parke of Acme Animal.
