If the wax seal has never been broken and it's been kept in a cool pantry or cellar, I'd 100% eat it.

If you cannot verify either: chuck it.

[-] rockSlayer 53 points 2 months ago

As best as I can tell, the wax is still has no cracks and it's been stored in the beer fridge this entire time

[-] comador@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago

Open gently, place on a freezer cooled plate and let it breathe for an hour... carve and enjoy.

[-] mr_account@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago

Well, carve at least

That knee looks a little suspicious.

[-] AngryRedHerring@feddit.online 2 points 2 months ago

It absolutely does.

[-] Lemming6969@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

It's not been stored correctly though for aging. It's not even the oldest cheese I've eaten though.

[-] Numinous_Ylem@lemmy.world 49 points 2 months ago

Bad news, I don’t think it’s mild cheddar anymore

Oh no, that's become wild cheddar my friend.

[-] Senseless@feddit.org 36 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Still more cultured than the US.

When a friend's parents passed away, he came over to start packing up their house. He found tartar sauce that could vote and little onyx-like bricks of partially consumed cream cheese in the fridge. The spice rack contained Owl Spices which were donated to the state historical society.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago

He found tartar sauce that could vote

Strange that it had the sentience to accomplish that.

[-] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 53 points 2 months ago

It doesn't have sentience, it votes Republican

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

God dammit. That explains a lot! Ok guys! Stop producing cheese! It's our only hope!

[-] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

Start producing smarter cheese. Give it two cells, it may vote independent.

[-] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Sharper cheese has more taste than any Republican I’ve met.

That is the most Wisconsin thing I’ve ever seen.

Side note and please don’t take offense: FTP

Lol we're no fans of the packers either. Iirc it was a joke gift for when my grandparents moved to their current house

Lol we're no fans of the packers either.

We all make mistakes sometimes.

Friends that poop

[-] muhyb@programming.dev 19 points 2 months ago

Keep it in mint condition (and colour) at this point. :)

[-] rockSlayer 24 points 2 months ago

At this point I think it can be considered an heirloom

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Actually, I think it's cheese.

What color did it start as

[-] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 months ago

Not sure it can legally be called cheese anymore

[-] hodgepodgin@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 months ago

yeah anyone recommending eating that is just wrong

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Think of what cheese is.

"I milked this cow, and now the milk has become full of bacteria, smells gross, and has solidified.......but I think I'm going to eat it."

[-] hodgepodgin@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago

What I mean is that you have no idea what bacteria is in that cheese or if the beer fridge was constantly refrigerated. If it doesn’t kill you it could still lead to an unpleasant ER visit. Not worth it over $10-20 worth of cheese.

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

eat the fucking cheese

[-] rizzothesmall@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago

Mmmm extra mature

[-] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago
[-] Zorque@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

My assumption from the coloring was a football player.

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 11 points 2 months ago

The back label says football player

[-] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 months ago

So, it's an astronaut. Like Katie Perry.

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Or a football playing king in space, with a moustache

[-] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I thought that at first too, but it definitely looks more like an astronaut helmet.

[-] Hellinabucket@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Did you miss the 2nd picture of the back of it that says 4oz football player at the top?

[-] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago
[-] thekerker@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

It’s a football player. The yellow and green color of the wax seal are the team colors of the Green Bay Packers in Wisconsin.

Now if you’ll excuse me: FTP

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

This cheese is out of this world.

[-] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 2 months ago

it never was cheddar, it's american "cheese".

[-] Draegur@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago

I was still in high school when that cheese was made.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

And you're almost done with 11th grade!

I was in 2md grade when that cheese was made. I'm turning 30 this year

[-] sirico@feddit.uk 4 points 2 months ago

The ultimate Packers cheese head

[-] ZebulonP@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

I saw these all the time as a kid. Never knew what they were. Was hoping theyd be some kind of sweet.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

Not sure what goes on in Jin’s cheese pantry.

[-] Lumisal@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Only 78 more years to go!

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
