In this edition of the Food Seattle Select Guide we feature Scrumptious Cheese. Cheese has been around for almost four thousand years. Ancient Sumerians followed by the Greeks and Romans were known to have savored cheese. Easy to make, legend has it that cheese was accidentally ‘invented’ by early nomad horsemen when they discovered that the milk in their saddle bags had curdled after a hard day’s ride separating the curd from the whey, leaving behind a gold-mine of food. Easily portable, cheese became a main staple of their diet. Over the centuries cheese making became incorporated into the diet of many cultures the world over.
