So what is brie wrapped in? A living mold coat. Sometimes a flaky pastry hug. Sometimes a leaf from the forest. Sometimes a black charcoal shell. It’s never just “cheese.” It’s a costume party for your mouth.
Next time you see that white disc, think of it as an onion. Layer after layer of delicious weirdness. And please, don’t unwrap it. Eat the whole dang thing. You’re biting into history, science, and a little bit of friendly fungus.
That’s the fun of brie. It’s wrapped in curiosity. Now go buy a wheel. And talk to it. It might answer.
