Food(ography) - Season 1 Episode 8 Cheese

Whey through the ripe, gooey, and intentionally moldy history of cheese, and meet some of the eccentric and passionate artisans who take milk and turn it into so much more. Cheese is an ancient food that may have been discovered by accident, but check out how the French and the Italians took that flub and ran with it; and how America changed it forever. Chef and owner Jon Shook is serving up a new twist on a classic comfort food at his restaurant Animal, and James Beard winner Barbara Lynch is making a ricotta gnudi to share. Cheese can be an appetizer, a main course, and of course a dessert (Hello? Cheesecake!) We'll even gaze into the future and see what wacky flavors are starting to make their way into cheese!
