    Yes, although doing it to blue cheese is very time consuming.

    Funny answer too...I meant to say! (:
    That could be because the blue-green mould on blue cheese is what it is made with. The only cheeses I know of that you can cut the mould from are those not made of mould, such as cottage cheese which is produced with a curdling agent called rennet, usually. Curdling is common to many food and chemical processes including the production of latex paint and tofu.

    Robert, I wish you'd have told me that sooner. I've just finished cutting the mold off of a 5 pound brick of Gorgonzola and now I'm left with 3 measly ounces of cream cheese.

    Hey Hipster, I'll courier you all the bad stuff for your next BBQ.
