Whereas I like the stuff, but have tragically had to admit that my mold issues aren't getting any better.
White mold, in moderation, I can manage. Blue or green molds reliably lead to all the symptoms of a bad drunk with an asthma attack on the side. I used to be able to have a small piece, but now three bites and I'm gasping and dizzy and holding my head. Dammit.
Keeps me off most red wines, too. There are three or four I know I can have, and lots more I could PROBABLY have, but when a mistake is going to lay me out wheezing for six hours, it does put a damper on the experimental impulse...
Port, for some reason, I can almost always have; only very cheap port have ever set me off. So, port and good aged white cheddar, and my mouth I should shut, becuase truly, with a good apple life could be a good deal worse.
Yes, and they seem to be okay, though I do tend to leave a lot of the rind. There is an excellent stinky sold around here that is washed-rind. I'll remember the name the second I hit post, no doubt.
The only things I can't have at ALL anymore are things like stilton or blue with a heavy vein of coloured mold running right through.
