A little extra mold on your cheese should not deter you from hanging onto it. Just scrape it off with a knife and carry on

Works for hard, solid cheeses (but cut, rather than scrape). I wouldn't do this for soft or porous cheeses. And remember, like cancer, make sure you get the margins.

We use plastic wrap and rarely have a problem.

Just don’t cut the cheese when other people are around.

Tillamook cheese reccomends wraping in parchment and then plastic. The plastic prevents unwanted other flavors from being absorbed.

If you have no cheese then it's not really a problem.

It took nine minutes for this thread to get a Monty Python post. We’re slipping.
