Washed-rind cheese are one of my favorite categories of cheese. Yes, they can really be very stinky, but it is that bacteria that also develops what I think are some of the most delicious rinds (and cheeses) out there.
Do You Eat the Rind?

Do you eat the rind? This is one of the most common questions that I get when I work on the cheese counter. My answer: yes, usually I do. Pretty much all cheese rinds are easily digestible. The primary exceptions are cloth-bound rinds and wax rinds. After that, it’s pretty much personal preference.
