[Cheese]

Bah, get it down ye

[Moosey]

I believe in cheeseus!

[Vercingetorix]

Now that I think about it I really don't know what is more disgusting. Casu marzu (the cheese with live maggots in it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casu_marzu) or Dwarf Cheese (the cheese made from the milk of giant purring maggots.)

At least dwarven cheese doesn't run the risk of maggots boring in to your intestines.

If that isn't Darwin in action I don't know what is.

Yeah, except in the sense that being a dwarf in Dwarf Fortress runs that and several other risks.

Dwarves don't make cheese in the same way we make cheese.
You see, what they do is bring the milk to the workshop, then they strain it through their beard a few times until it becomes solid.

Solid and delicious.
But mostly just solid.

This.

(Damn you for taking it first fivex!)

But yeah. When I found out, I started a section of my fort dedicated to cheese production. Pens for cows. Stockpile for buckets. Stockpile for buckets-with-milk. STOCKPILE OF WAY TOO MUCH CHEESE.

So has anyone figured out how many dwarves you can feed on one cow's worth of cheese alone? Or roughly how long you have to wait between milkings? I ask because I've embarked with a cow and a bull this time around, and I'm hoping to start my very own dairy farm. I mean, technically I already have, its just not a very big one.

Protip: Don't milk the bull.

[Vibhor]

No... thank god.

[timtek]

Ewwww cheese from a hairy nipple! That's even scarier than the guy who made human cheese irl.

[Cheese]

Cheese is full of my parasitic mind controlling minions. You are powerless to stop them. *Evil laugh* 

[cog disso]

When you think about it, the invention of cheese must have been a weird idea.

DWARF 1: "I've taken the milk and let it spoil until it got hard and now I'm eating it."

DWARF 2: "Wait, what milk? The milk from your wife?"

DWARF 1: "No, the milk from that buffalo we just domesticated."

DWARF 2: "You're losing me... you're drinking the milk... FROM THE BUFFALO? Doesn't that strike you as a little bit weird? It edges on bestiality."

DWARF 1: "The best part about it is when I let it chill for a few days in THAT CAVE OVER THERE, it turns out with green spots, and when I let it chill for a few days in THAT OTHER CAVE OVER THERE, it turns out with blue spots."

DWARF 2: "Thank the Hoary Marmot Goddess we haven't developed embalming yet, because you'd probably eat that, too."

DWARF 1: "Surprise! Jerky!"
