Dr. Brian Nummer, USU Extension Food Safety Specialist, has reported that the recent practice of waxing cheese and keeping it on your shelf at home should be stopped. He said today's cheeses are too high in moisture and too low in acidity to keep well with this method. He said it can spoil, and the results can be deadly! He said that cheeses we can buy already waxed are fine, because they were created in controlled circumstances. For more information contact him at brian.nummer@usa.edu.
