No, blue cheese itself is not living.

You can check if anything is living by asking yourself if it does MRS NERG: (Move, respire, be sensitive to changes such as light, need nutrition, excrete, reproduce and grow).

The blue bits in blue cheese are made by moulds and bacteria, and bacteria are a living organism.

No, blue cheese is not living. It is a type of cheese made from cow's milk that has been cultured with mold spores to give it its distinctive blue veining.

Is there any bacteria in blue cheese?

There are millions of bacteria in every slice of blue cheese just like in most living food, but if you are referring to what gives its blue color to cheese, this is a fungus, not a bacteria. Blue cheese like stilton, roquefort or gorgonzola are seeded with the fungus penicillium roqueforti. Penicillium has been used in France since the Middle Ages to heal wounds, in the form of blue mold bread, however it is the Scottish Alexander Fleming who first isolated its active element penicillin in 1928, from penicillium rubens.
