good question
It is typically considered as a mold which it is but it is not your typical mold this type of mold is acually really good for your digestive system because it is a type of good bacteria that causes the mold which happens to be a form of pennisillin but don't worry if you are allergic to pennisillin because this is not an atibiotic formula of pennisillin because this bacteria is naturally formed of course with some human interaction but we don't acutually make it or in other words change it genetically, there are also other cheeses with this type of mold
p.s this was written by a southern sixth grader this is true
Blue cheese (or bleu cheese) is a cheese that has had Penicillium cultures added so that the final product is spotted or veined with blue-gray or blue-green mold.
No. There are many different types of mold, but many foods have mold all ready when they are eaten. Do you like blue cheese? The blue color is a mold within the cheese and it is allowed to ripen to get get that blue vein. You probably all ready eat mushrooms. They are a fungus. I can think of many things that people eat that have mold or are a fungus.
Blue cheese gets the name from the veins of blue colored mold that go through it. It is intentional, as it is a cheese curd infected with penecillium to have that result, which also gives it the pungent flavor.
Unless mold is an actual part of the food (as in blue cheese or brie), do not eat moldy food.
In some cases like cheese ( blue cheese) are fine but people are sometimes allergies.
It is not made with "moldy cheese" it is made with a type of blue mold added to it during its manufacturing but, this mold is not harmful to humans. Blue cheese is part of the blue veined cheese group.
Cheese is molded on purpose. The blue in cheese is the color of mold.
Cheese with mould (mold) which has grown on it is not normally safe to eat. But many so-called 'blue' cheeses are made with special types of mould, veined throughout the cheese, which is perfectly edible.
Yes it is, today most varieties of blue cheese are either injected with mold or it is mixed right in with the curd.

Blue cheese is mostly white with veins of blue mold growing in it.
Ask a blue cheese maker.
