Can you eat Moldy Swiss cheese?
Yes, but should you? The rule of thumb for mold on aged hard cheeses is to cut away the mold and cheese within one inch of the mold. The remainder should be edible. The reason for this is cheddar cheese won't mold as fast as cottage or mozzarella because cheddar is not as moist as those cheeses and since mold needs moistness to grow, those 2 cheeses are the best place for mold to grow. Mold starts out as spores, and the spores are the beginning of the life cycle for mold. If you are a cheese person, always get to your cheese early, especially if it is mozzarella or cottage. If mold is found on soft cheese, such as, cottage cheese or cream cheese, the entire package should be discarded.

Cheese often molds a little as it grows older. It must be refrigerated. The mold can simply be cut off and the cheese is still safe to use.

It's easier to cut, tastes better, and malts more quickly and smoothly.

yes.......... if you refer to moulded as in shaped.If you mean mouldy as is fungal growth then the answer depends on the type of cheese. Moulds are microscopic organisms that have thread-like roots that burrow into the foods they grow on. Most molds are harmless.

These molds are safe to eat.But mold on cheese that's not part of the manufacturing process can also harbor harmful bacteria, such as listeria, brucella, salmonella and E. coli. With hard and semisoft cheese, you can cut away the mouldy part and eat the rest of the cheese. Keep the knife out of the mold itself so that it doesn't cross-contaminate other parts of the cheese. Cut off at least one inch around and below the moldy spot. With soft cheeses, however, the mould cannot be safely removed so they should be discarded. The same goes for any cheese that's shredded, crumbled or sliced.
