Port Salut


The Danish version is a full flavored cheese made from partially skimmed cow's milk. The flavor of the cheese is enhanced by rind washings and curing time.

The French version, of which the cheese gets its name was first made by 19th-century Trappist monks at the Monastery of Port-du-Salut in the Brittany region of France. However, in the 1950's the manufacturing was eventually turned over to a large dairy company in Lorraine, France. The cheese now bears little resemblance to the original version. The Danish version is far superior.


Origin France, Denmark
Type Semi-Soft , Cow, Table

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are  advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.

Do you favor making sugar a government controlled substance like alcohol and tobacco?
