Comments? If they're as good as the bags, then they're probably worth
the bucks. I wonder how visible the contents are, tho. That was my
big beef about Tupperware - I couldn't see what was IN the darn
things.

It kills me to toss out food - I had to chuck a good hunk of Swiss
cheese today had allowed to get buried in the fridge and forgot
about. Nice green coat, it wore.

Even clear containers get buried. If stuff is getting buried and
forgotten you are buying way too much food.

Didn't you try to clean the cheese by cutting away a 1/4" layer? It actually
works with many cheeses, and if the mold is only external you can just
remove a very thin layer, even 1 millimeter. Just make sure there's no more
green on the newly uncovered surface.

An American is as likely to do that as you are to BBQ at 2 am.

The mold you see is only the fruiting bodies (reproductive organs), which is
less than 1%, the mycilium extends throughout the entire cheese. By the
time you see evidence of mold on food it is well established and should be
thrown out... cutting away the fruiting bodies is like not seeing an
offending image by closing your eyes, it's still there. The mycilium of
mold/fungi are the largest living organisms on the planet, some extend over
many square miles and are estimated to weigh many tons.

There is not a published food scientist who agrees with you unless you are
speaking of a fresh cheese such as ricotta or cream cheese. Molds that grow
on cheeses are particular molds and are not harmful if cut away.

There are actually molds and mold spores inside your head. You will
correctly cut off the whole head to get rid of them, then you will feel much
better.

....with cheese types that are o.k. and not o.k.

Yeah, but at least you don't have to remove lids to see what's in 'em.

I admit I got lazy with the cheese. I put it in the veg. drawer in
its original wrapper instead of wrapped in vinegar soaked paper towel
and in a clear container in the cheese drawer as I usually do.

Cutting away the mold would have left a piece about the size of a
communion wafer.

It is the traditional way of caring for hard cheeses. Yes, I've done it.
Yes, I'm an American.

It's a filthy dirty unbathed guinea who's likely to have moldy cheese.
