๐Ÿ”— Casu Martzu

๐Ÿ”— Italy ๐Ÿ”— Food and drink ๐Ÿ”— Diptera ๐Ÿ”— Food and drink/Cheeses

Casu martzu (Sardinian pronunciation:ย [หˆkazu หˆmaษพtsu]; literally 'rotten/putrid cheese'), sometimes spelled casu marzu, and also called casu modde, casu cundรญdu and casu frร zigu in Sardinian language, is a traditional Sardinian sheep milk cheese that contains live insect larvae (maggots). A variation of the cheese, casgiu merzu, is also produced in some Southern Corsican villages like Sartene.

Derived from pecorino, casu martzu goes beyond typical fermentation to a stage of decomposition, brought about by the digestive action of the larvae of the cheese fly of the Piophilidae family. These larvae are deliberately introduced to the cheese, promoting an advanced level of fermentation and breaking down of the cheese's fats. The texture of the cheese becomes very soft, with some liquid (called lร grima, Sardinian for "teardrop") seeping out. The larvae themselves appear as translucent white worms, roughly 8ย mm (0.3ย in) long.

๐Ÿ”— Atomic gardening

๐Ÿ”— Agriculture ๐Ÿ”— Food and drink ๐Ÿ”— Plants ๐Ÿ”— Horticulture and Gardening ๐Ÿ”— Genetics

Atomic gardening is a form of mutation breeding where plants are exposed to radioactive sources, typically cobalt-60, in order to generate mutations, some of which have turned out to be useful.

The practice of plant irradiation has resulted in the development of over 2000 new varieties of plants, most of which are now used in agricultural production. One example is the resistance to verticillium wilt of the "Todd's Mitcham" cultivar of peppermint which was produced from a breeding and test program at Brookhaven National Laboratory from the mid-1950s. Additionally, the Rio Star Grapefruit, developed at the Texas A&M Citrus Center in the 1970s, now accounts for over three quarters of the grapefruit produced in Texas.
