I so agree, my mom taught me how to strip/string the back of the celery. I do think celery has been modified during the years to reduce that those strong strings.
I couldn’t even finish watching a video I found. I can’t believe anyone would try it.
Yikes! That is a hard No! from me.I love all types of cheese, and I’m always eager to sample cheese varieties that I haven’t had yet.
So the article entitled “The Most Dangerous Cheese in the World” caught my attention.

Few cheeses on earth are as unique and provocative as Casu Marzu. Often referred to as “the forbidden cheese”, “the maggot cheese”, and even “the world’s most dangerous cheese”, this Sardinian delicacy brings out some strong reactions.
At just the right point of maturing, the top of each wheel is partially removed, exposing the developing curds. The eggs of the cheese fly are deposited inside, and the rind replaced. When the translucent, white larvae hatch they begin consuming the interior.
Their digestive process causes advanced fermentation to take place, which turns the interior into a soft, creamy texture. (The name, Casu Marzu, translates to “rotting cheese”, a nod to the process it undergoes.) Oozing beads of fatty liquid called lagrima, “tears” in the local dialect, slide down the cut exterior of the wheel as it matures, a sign the process is working as intended.
Reading about that cheese reminded me of how the dangerous Fugu pufferfish is considered a delicacy in Japan.
When I was in Japan last summer, my husband tried it!Reading about that cheese reminded me of how the dangerous Fugu pufferfish is considered a delicacy in Japan.

Thank you for sharing this. I'm always open to trying new foods, but I'm not sure I'd brave Casu Marzu. That said, I like to attend wine tastings on cruises and especially enjoy small, private events with just a few people (10-12). Guests sit at a communal bar table with a sommelier who presents several wines accompanied by assorted cheeses or chocolates. During one wine/cheese tasting, we sampled Morbier that the sommelier described as "dead cheese" (think "morbid", "morbidity"). The Morbier was paired with a crisp chilled Reisling. I enjoyed it but others were not crazy about it. I wondered if the description of "dead cheese" turned them off to giving it a chance.

OMG, cannot resist noting my childhood story where I had this plastic play "cake" pan I used to play with in the backyard. I left it out there upside down, full of mud, it rained. I went back to it a little later, pulled the play pan up from the mud pie i'd made. The top of the "mud pie" was crawling with maggots. Ewww, so gross! It looked like a living, crawling coconut pie, like the most disgusting thing ever.But have you heard of (it cringes me to even say it) maggot therapy?
They’re used on some wounds with dead tissue as it is supposed to heal the wound faster and more effectively. Can you imagine? That would be hard for me to agree to using that method on me.
Sorry for the non-food related post. Did I just cause us all to lose our appetites now?

Not me. Now I want some celery, lol.
Even when I go to our local natural foods store, I walk as far away as I can from their fresh cheese department. I think I posted here a few days ago, how I can’t even stand the smell of Asiago on pizza.I love all types of cheese, and I’m always eager to sample cheese varieties that I haven’t had yet.
