[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parmesan cheese contains butyric acid, which is found in rancid butter… and vomit. One of my kids can immediately identify cheap/bad parmesan and will only eat freshly grated. A guest once left a container of Kraft Parmesan in our fridge and he noticed the odor before opening the fridge. Other kid doesn’t care or notice. Supposedly people cannot distinguish vomit and Parmesan in a blind smell test. [/quote]

Yeah idk why everyone is gaslighting like parm (and other Italian cheeses) don’t have a funkier smells and tastes than simple shredded mozzarella. Parm especially has a very pronounced stinky smell.[/quote]

Parmesan is considered a mild cheese.  :roll: [/quote]

It's mild, not completely devoid of taste/smell.

DP. Again, for those obsessed with butyric acid, I'll point out that it is also found in breastmilk, which is fairly mild smelling.

It's not a marker of princess status to be able to feel a pee, nor is it one to find Parmesan to smell like vomit. Let's be real here. If you don't like it, then you don't like it. If cilantro tastes like soap to you, then you have a genetic quirk that gives you this perception -- same as for those who find Parmesan to be unacceptably strong-smelling.

Just .. let it go. Don't design your identity around this sort of trivia.[/quote]

I don't think anyone is priding themselves on being turned off by butyric acid, that is your own obsession. The reason I know this is because I used to work with butyric acid in a lab setting, and it was everyone's worst nightmare when someone spilled a few drops. We all ran out of the lab. It allowed me to understand why one of my kids noticed an odor that the rest of us were fine with. OP posted that her kids don't like parmesan and I posted that the reason most likely is that they are sensitive to butyric acid. Not sure why you are so disturbed. And hope you can "feel a pee" better than you can feel a pea! Thanks for the laugh. [/quote]

I'm glad something is making you laugh, because those rants on BA are humorless AF. [/quote]
