When Does Cheese Spoil?
When you come right down to it, the length of time a cheese will keep is completely dependent on the type of cheese. Of course, that’s not taking into account proper storage, which is a factor in the longevity of a given cheese. But, for all intents and purposes, the main guide to when a cheese is likely to spoil is the cheese itself. So, pay attention when you put it in your fridge, the date may come in handy when determining if it’s gone bad, namely for those cheeses that already have a fairly pungent odor.
