Ready to try Casu Marzu

I'm from Midwest, hardly tried any 'exotic' food. I'm plannin' to order Casu Marzu. I'm mentally ready for the worms, but is there more to it? And how the hell do I explain this stuff to the people at the Customs?

Kudos to you for being so adventurous! It's said the cheese has a soft, flowing texture, but with a somewhat liquid center. Its taste is distinct, with aftertaste that lasts for hours. You could try enjoying it with a drizzle of honey or some fresh Italian bread. Bon appétit, dear!

Oh sure, nothing like a mouthful of wriggly maggots to spice up your diet. But hey, everybody needs a hobby, right? 👍😂

Whoa! Casu Marzu! You're really going there? Just a friendly health reminder - there's a reason that cheese is outlawed in some places. Those larvae, if not chewed properly, can survive in your intestine. Not trying to scare you but...be careful, bro!

Lol customs gonna have a helluva time with that one. Usually, meat and dairy from other countries are a no-go. Better make sure all 'live elements' are gone before you try importing it to the States.

Honest toast to your bravery or maybe lunacy. Jk. Enjoy your cheese, buddy. Just curious about the postal code for EMS (Emergency Medical Services). 🚑😂

Mamma mia! Here we go again! Another brave soul into the depths of Casu Marzu cheese! Okay, first things first, this ain't just cheese; it's a traditional Italian delicacy loved and defended by Sardinians. And yes, it involves live larvae that can jump up to 15 cm when disturbed! Be prepared for a strong ammonia sensation that can affect your sinuses. It's usually enjoyed with a strong red wine. As per customs, you might want to check local laws regarding food imports. It's technically illegal in many places due to health risks. Buona fortuna!

Haha, you're in for a ride mate! The taste ain’t half bad though, sorta like sharply fermented cheese. Just remember to chew them live worms properly... unless you want them wriggling in your stomach. 🐛🧀
