Worked at a pizza place and the Maillard reaction isn't the only thing that makes the cheese look more brown/orange, we actually sprinkle just a little bit of cheddar on top of the mozza because it makes it look nice, not necessarily for flavor.

One of the more interesting cheeses, at least from a food perspective, is Skyr. Resembling Greek yoghurt and eaten for breakfast or lunch in Iceland it is a bit sour but usually sweetened with sugar and/or fruits or berries. It is theorised it became a popular dish in Iceland due to high demand for whey, which was, and still is to an extent, used as a preservation agent for various meat products. Whey was also widely drunk as a refreshing beverage but has become a lot less popular in the past few decades.

[@spazmaster1996]

But why does cheese taste better when it has been melted??

[@chillsahoy2640]

At higher temperatures, the various molecules that contribute to flavor can evaporate and reach your chemical receptors more easily, resulting in a more intense flavor. There's also the comfort of warm food.

Hey SciShow, really love how interesting and well-researched and referenced your videos are. I was wondering if you would consider speaking a little slower.

[@SkyLordPanglot]

Im from Bulgaria and here we have two different words for cheese. We use *sirene* (сирене) for the crumblier whiter cheeses and *kashkaval* (кашкавал) for the cheeses with more fat that are generally more like butter and are yellow instead of white. Here if you say *sirene* everyone knows that this is the standard brined white cheese (basically feta cheese) and if you say *kashkaval* people assume that its yellow cheese that is cheddar alike, but with milder flavor. Or maybe it is closer to emental cheese Im not quite sure. Depends on your taste receptors. Otherwise if you are looking specially for cheddar, mozzarella, brie or something like that you have to specify of course. It may be harder to find any specific types of cheese, but the usual *sirene* and *kashkaval* can be found pretty much everywhere.

Acid-set cheeses need no rennet... just acid, heat, and some time to press out excess moisture after the curds are separated from the whey. They're quick to make, you can add all sorts of flavorings to them as you please, and they can be done in any firmness from a nice spreadable cream-cheese consistency to a nice, solid (but still soft) block good for finger-food snacking or frying/grilling (these don't melt!) for sandwich or other use.

With dairy products I can see where they are coming from, ethically I mean, but I don't see it with eggs (the concept of eating eggs, I get the outcry against the egg industry and it's awful practices, but you can get eggs elsewhere). No one makes the chickens last the eggs, they're gonna lay no matter what. You're not killing a living creature, the eggs aren't fertilized if you keep the roosters away. It's just a cell on the ground that the chickens are likely to ignore completely, at least the chickens I've been around. I don't get what the moral objection is.

[@FusionDeveloper]

I talked with someone who is Vegan and they said you have to figure out where you want to draw the line for what you feel is acceptable and not. I talked with a Vegetarian and he said you can be a partial-vegetarian, like only giving up certain meats or only cutting back on how often you eat meat. Sure you can't be considered 100% of one of these, but it is all about how important you feel it is. As far as I know, once you are an adult living on your own, you aren't forced to become a Vegan or Vegetarian and since the problem with the treatment of animals used to produce food, is usually directly related to the quantity, if you reduce the quantity, they can increase the treatment and care of the animals. It's very interesting when you realize you don't have to be 100%.

Sokan1993 A whole foods plant based diet is the only diet proven to reverse heart disease which is the number one cause of death in the United States. But I guess I am dense for not wanting to eat a diet that will kill me.

[@DankGank]

+Sokan1993 I'm a meat eater as well, but your horrible language isn't helping anyone to agree with you.

[@rubikfan1]

talking about cheese and not even mentioning gouda. thats like talking about cars without talking about volkswagen.

[@M_S_Blanc]

Ford, Chevrolet, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Nissan, Honda, Koenigsegg, Renault, Peugeot, Volvo, Tesla, Holden. Does Volkswagen--or Porsche for that matter--need to be talked about? OwO

[@stuvs830]

I used to get a pizza made with smoked gouda, artichokes and smoked clams-it was a made to order, take home and bake in a grocery store- and it was sublime. How I ever moved away...

[@omegaproductions881]

+msblanc Audi, Porshe, Bugatti, Bentley, and I think Lamborghini are subsidiaries of the Volkswagon Group

[@M_S_Blanc]

Yes, they are all subsidiaries, but I'm not talking about EA, I'm talking about Madden! And by that I mean Volkswagen Group is one thing, I'm meaning specifically cars with the VW logo on them. Screw them!

[@rubikfan1]

msblanc i doesnt realy matter that you dont like them. volkswagen hold a very big part of the globel market of cars. especially in europe. like 50% of all cars is either volkswagen or a company owned by volkswagen. and gouda rules!! maby i am biased because i am dutch. but gouda is my favorite. i eat it on bread(slightly riped). most of the time i made it into a tosti(grilled cheese). and i also like to eat it when it is realy old cheese. a couple of week ago i found a very nice gouda at a farm sell. it had been riping for aproximet 3 years. that flavour is soooo good. but i dont buy it all the time as that whould gain me to much waight lol. if you ever get the change to eat 2-3 year old gouda. do it!!

i liked this video the SECOND i read that "wheyste not" pun. Well done

Note: unpasteurised or pasteurised cheese can have bad bacteria like e coli. Saying that pasteurised is safer means nothing. Lots of cheese like French, Swiss or Italian are unpasteurised, they are not harmful to the public. The main reason to pasteurise the cheese is to be able to create a same flavour profil which is more difficult with unpasteurised.

Next video should be: Should humans consume milk from other mammals? Because of marketing strategies etc. We shouldn't.

cheese fact : go vegan

[@libbybollinger5901]

How about: shut up about being vegan, we get it, and you're not gonna change anyone's mind

[@fuzziestlumpkin]

cheese fact: no, why would i?

[@fuzziestlumpkin]

***** Unfortunately, animals eat other animals. Me included. Lots of things are unnecessary for health and survival, smartphones, for example. Should we stop using them though?

[@tacosteve2071]

+Semi Quasi Philosopher you're right . Why eat animals when you can eat vegan hipsters.

[@fuzziestlumpkin]

***** animal cruelty laws are applied to the animals we eat. There are incredibly strict guidelines. As for being smarter than our pets, pigs yes, cows and chickens no.

[@akhenatten]

I love science. I love learning, I love the texture, the delicious smell of it, the way it melts and bubbles under heat, the way it slides off my slice of pizza.....oops, I meant cheese. I love cheese. Dammit, I came here to learn stuff, not get hungry.

[@readjordan2257]

Heres a tip i learned from Prince Kassad: Handsome generals always win battles.

[@PondOfGlue]

I can't begin to describe how hungry this video made me. Hnnnngggggg.

The guy who milks moose is not someone I would want to run into in a dark alley.

[@elizabethshaw734]

I lived in the UK and fell in love with Red Leister. It's that sharp kind of cheese that almost stings the roof of your mouth but it's delicious and I can't get it where I live in America. :-(

[@sylwyu1]

My 2cent:, the proper way of naming species is to write the the full name, e.g. "Propionibacterium shermanii" and then if you need to name it again, you can write "P. shermanii". Cheers!

I need to ferment new episode of the shows I watch so that no one shall spoil it.

[@LTCloud9]

0:37 Whey a minute.. did you just pull a fast one on us?

[@LaineyBug2020]

I love it when you guys try to say slash sci show! I don't think any of you can do it & it's so cute! I don't think I'd be able to either unless it was very slowly & deliberately.

[@Felix-wq2ec]

My mouth watered for a second in the end.

[@GroovingPict]

Norwegian Brunost ("Brown Cheese") is also made by the leftover whey from regular cheese making. Norway having been a poor country for most of its history (before the oil that is), it was important to use every last bit of every resource.
