How Does Molded Cheese Taste

Cheese is a milk-based product that is deliberately "spoiled" and is full of bacteria. That's primarily what gives cheese its distinctive flavour and aroma. However, cheese has a much longer shelf-life than the milk from which it is derived. Indeed, certain varieties that are encased in a protective rind and can take years to fully mature. And yet manufacturers will insist it must be eaten in 2 to 5 days of opening! This is sheer nonsense and is only a legal precaution.


The actual duration a cheese will "keep" varies according to the type of cheese. Once exposed to air, the bacteria begin to rapidly multiply, producing a visible green-blue mold. However, many cheese are visibly moldy by design, so any additional mold is unlikely to do you any harm. If the cheese is not intentionally moldy, people will often scrape or cut away the mold, but it is perfectly edible. The only real difference is a stronger taste and aroma.

Eventually, though, cheese will spoil for real. The first visible sign of spoiling is a darkening of the colour, a result of the cheese drying out. However, the interior of the cheese may be perfectly fine; you can simply cut away the harder protective exterior. The only reason to throw away cheese is when it has completely dried out. At that point, it can be said to have fully spoiled. It may well taste fine, but it is unpalatable. If there's no moisture left then it cannot even be melted at cooking temperature.

By the way, i just ate a molded cheese few weeks ago.
Mmm...still alive, guess it's fine to eat it after-all. LOL!

10 Benefits of Almond Milk

If you are trying new products to substitute for milk, try almond milk. When created properly, almond milk has many benefits that will increase the quality of your diet. Here are a few that might interest you:

 

1. Almond milk doesn't taste like milk.
One benefit of almond milk is that it definitely doesn't taste like milk. Almond milk has it's own unique flavour: light, nutty, crisp. It does differ from milk. So if you hate the way milk tastes, but wants something you add to your cream of wheat or coffee, try almond milk. It won't taste like milk, but will have the same consistency that you need to enhance certain dishes.

2. Almond milk is healthy and nutritious.
Need to boost the magnesium, potassium or Vitamin E in your diet? Drink almond milk! Almonds are full of these essential nutrients. So, as you consume it, you are increasing the level of health in your diet.

3. Almond milk is lower in calories than dairy milk.
Per Discovery Health, regular and plain almond milk is lower than calories than Fat-Free, Skim and Non-Fat milk. One glass of it is 70 calories versus 86 calories of its counterpart. Therefore, you can enjoy the benefit of an entire flavourful glass of almond milk without destroying your diet.

4. Almond milk doesn't have to be refrigerated in an icebox.
Dairy milk has to be refrigerated or it will spoil. Yet, you will see in the stores that almond milk is set on the shelf with dry foods. It doesn't have to be set on ice to keep its integrity. This fact is excellent for road trips and camping trips. Use almond milk instead of regular milk and lessen the load in your ice chest.

5. Almond milk is a better milk alternative than soy milk.
Yes. Although the FDA touts the benefits of soy milk, others don't. Kaayla Daniel, the author of The Whole Soy Story: The Dark Side of America's Favorite Health Food, says soy milk isn't that good for a diet. Why? It is full of sugar. Therefore, the lift people feel after drinking it largely has to do with its sugar content. With this in mind, almond milk is the better choice because of all of the nutrients in it naturally.

6. Almond milk is an excellent alternative for people with milk allergies.
Normally, when you think of a person who can't drink milk, it's because they are lactose intolerant. Yet, there are other things that comprise milk that some people are allergic too. If you happen to be one of those people or your baby is, almond milk is an excellent alternative. It can be consumed without all of the ill effects.

7. The residuals of almond milk can be used in baking.
If you make your own almond milk at home, you know that there is pulp left over. The almond pulp left over can be used in recipes that call for it - like cookies or even crescents. So, you get the benefit of creating more than one food item from almonds. Here's one recipe off of Tribe.net:

Cream together:
1 cup sugar
1 cup earth balance margarine

Add and mix well:
2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
1 cup almond pulp

Add, mixing with hands:
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour

Chill for a couple of hours, then roll out and cut (Just use a small glass to make circles). Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees. You get almost six-dozen, 1-inch cookies. They are quite tasty!

8. Almond milk can easily be incorporated into a raw food diet.
There is a lot of controversy over the nutritional and health benefits of dairy milk in the Vegan community. A lot of it has to do with hormones and other things used to process and preserve milk. As a result, many people prefer almond milk as an alternative in a raw food diet. It can be used to create smoothies and other delicious treats. Also, anyone can make it at home. Try it out for your self by following the recipe on the web pages "How to Make Raw Vanilla Almond Milk."

9. Almond milk is one product part of a new wave of milk alternatives.
According to a report by the International Market for Dairy Alternatives, the U.S. continues to grow in sales and production of dairy alternatives. Why? For several dietary reasons, Americans are choosing to consume non-dairy products. So, the U.S. is trying to meet that demand. Be part of the new wave of eating right. Substitute almond milk for dairy milk and see how much better you feel.

10. Almond milk is an excellent alternative for lactose intolerant people.
If you are lactose intolerant, you have difficulty digesting milk. As a result, when you consume it, you become bloated, gassy and sick. Almond milk is a product you can use in replace of milk. Pour it over your cereal or drink it with a piece of cake and you'll see it is an excellent, tasty alternative. Therefore, you get the benefit of eating your favourite foods without the downside of a negative reaction to lactose.

【早上起床別喝哪四種水？】 4 Kind of water that is bad to drink first thing in the morning

一、飲料
早上起來的第一杯水最好不要喝市售的果汁、可樂、汽水、
咖啡、牛奶等飲料。
汽水和可樂等碳酸飲料中大都含有檸檬酸，
在代謝過程中會加速鈣的排泄，降低血液中鈣的含量，
長期飲用會導致缺鈣。而另一些飲料有利於排尿作用，
清晨飲用非但不能有效補充機體缺少的水分，
還會增加集體對水分的要求，反而造成體內缺水。

二、冰水
很多人喜歡早上起來喝一杯冰水，其實這是很不科學的。
喝冰水容易引起胃黏膜血管收縮，影響消化、刺激胃腸，
使胃腸的蠕動加快，甚至引起腸痙攣，導致腹疼、腹瀉。
正常人喝冰水，尤其是帶甜味的飲料，
在空腹的情況下飲用後，容易引發胃病。

三、久置的開水
開水久置以後，其中含氮的有機物會不斷被分解成亞硝酸鹽。
尤其是存放過久的開水，難免有細菌污染，
此時含氮有機物分解加速，亞硝酸鹽的生成也就更多。
飲用這樣的水後亞硝酸鹽與血紅蛋白結合，
會影響血液的運氧功能。

四、鹽水
有人認為喝淡鹽水有益於身體健康，於是晨起喝淡鹽水，
這種認識確是錯誤的。喝淡鹽水有利於健康不假，
這對於夏天出汗後補充水分是必要的，
可對於晨起補充水分來說非但無益，
還是一個危害健康的錯誤做法。

I'm Still Loving You by Shiga Lin (連詩雅)

When I close my eyes I think of you
And the times we've had been through
Even though we're far apart right now

I remember back when you were here with me
How you've made my world complete
But now I'm left alone

We talked about love and hope
Wishing we could start a life our own
I wish that I could live without you

Why did you tear my heart apart
You said you'd love me from the start
All those painful things you've put me through
But I'm still loving you
I've tried to give my best to you
I don't deserve the things you do
Everything has gone to memories
I just wish I knew the truth behind the lies
