This cheese is so disgusting it is illegal – but that doesn’t stop the blackmarket from selling tons of the stuff to locals. Casu Marzu is a traditional Sardinian sheep milk cheese, notable for being riddled with live insect larvae. Derived from Pecorino, Casu marzu goes beyond typical fermentation to a stage most would consider decomposition, brought about by the digestive action of the larvae of the cheese fly Piophila casei. These larvae are deliberately introduced to the cheese, promoting an advanced level of fermentation and breaking down of the cheese’s fats. The texture of the cheese becomes very soft, with some liquid seeping out. Casu marzu is considered toxic when the maggots in the cheese have died. Because of this, only cheese in which the maggots are still alive is eaten. Because the larvae in the cheese can launch themselves for distances up to 15 centimeters (6 in) when disturbed, diners hold their hands above the sandwich to prevent the maggots from leaping into their eyes. If a diner is not careful to chew the maggots until they are dead, dire consequences can arise: the larvae (which are resistant to stomach acids) have powerful mouthhooks which can lacerate stomach linings or intestinal walls as the maggots attempt to bore through internal organs.
 
That maggot cheese sounds awesome. Insects are meant to be the highest source of protein, if you were trying to bulk up I imagine that would be the stuff you need. The jumping maggots add a nice element of surprise. 4 stars.
 
I watched a prog. about 'the kosha police' from the beth din in manchester, they go around checking that places that are supplying kosha food for weddings, barmitzvahs etc. are abiding by the rules.
This guy was spending an unbelievable amount of time washing salad and putting it in water and skimming off tiny larvae etc (a lettuce would take him hours) he explained that to eat any of those would be more of a sin than to eat pork, as in the Torah it only mentions eating pork once whereas it mentions insects about a dozen times.

So basically a bacon butty isn't so bad but a B.L.T. is another matter altogether.

I was watching it to find out about Dairy as there is a big thing about Dairy produce as well, so i wanted to find out if Jewish bakeries did a lot of non-dairy stuff because of my daughters allergies.
Jewish kitchens have 2 sinks as they don't want dairy produce near other stuff.
 

John the Baptist ate Locusts and Wild Honey, I think Jews can eat some insects.

Strange thing I heard is that (may not be true) Muslims believe if they touching a pig or an unclean animal when they die, they go straight to hell - which if true I dont know why the U.S. army dont get a water cannon type set up but with pig fat and launch an assault against the Taliban with these on the front line.
