    Before empires and royalty, before pottery and writing, before metal tools and weapons - there was cheese. As early as 8000 BCE, Neolithic farmers began a legacy of cheesemaking almost as old as civilization. Today, the world produces roughly 22 billion kilograms of cheese a year, shipped and consumed around the globe. Paul Kindstedt shares the history of one of our oldest and most beloved foods.
    Lesson by Paul S. Kindstedt, directed by Charlotte Cambon.

    I love how 99.9% of human cuisine history is "I'm gonna eat this thing and see if it kills me". The other .1% of it is "Even if it does kill me, we'll find a way to make it edible".

      @@Napoleonic_S I would assume the first human exclusive food would have something to do with fire, maybe as simple as fire roasted meat, seeing as control of fire really separates us from other animals. Also, alcohol is not exclusive to humans, elephants also indulge

      Yes but cooked food isn't what I had in mind, I'm asking about new kind of food that require human intelligence to make. Roasted meat is still meat, while alcohol isn't the same as what were the original ingredient.
      Wait, elephants drink alcohol? Tell us more!
      Oh, maybe it was farmed food like rice, wheat and the likes?

      Think of it like the lumas in Super Mario Galaxy. They just view what you'd call 'death' as the next stage in their life.
      First they're being produced in the teats of an animal, which becomes milk that then gets harvested by humans
      Next they evolve and become soft white globs
      Then they become processed and turned into cheese
      Cheese is consumed by humans which comes out the other end
      That other end could potentially become compost for the soil
      Soil becomes fertile and grows grass, which an animal can eat to produce milk
      And thus the circle of life continues

      I once made fresh cheese. I had some kind of yogurt and mixed it with milk. I didn't turn out to be good so I wanted to try out making cheese. I then put it in the microwave for 10 minutes. It became cheesy so I repeated what I had done for 2 more times. It kind of exploded so I had to clean some stuff up but anyways, my mom said that it wouldn't be good and I proved her wrong. I put the 'cheese' for around 20 minutes in the fridge, I also had put some sugar when i tried to make some yogourt. My mom liked it.

    I wish you would've mentioned the Pictish Crowdie Cheese. My Grandmother used to tell me stories about how, when she was growing up, her family had a milking cow that kept them alive through the Great Depression in the US, she even told me about her Irish Mother's homemade cheese recipe, sour milk hung from a stocking overnight. When I recently discovered a XIX C. recipe for Scottish Crowdie Cheese, I realized that it was the same recipe that my Irish Great Grandmother used to make. And now I've revived the tradition and make my own cheese.
