How to choose and save a product
When buying cheese, you need to pay attention to its slice: there should not be too many cheese channels and they should not be explicit. Despite the fact that the texture of the cheese product with mold is quite loose, it should not crumble and disintegrate. Also, do not forget that branded cheese heads must be wrapped in wax paper, and also placed in airtight packaging.
