Dusting the cheese with rice flour is unlikely, as the moisture from the aging cheese would cause the flour to form into a gummy paste and promote unfavorable microbal growth. The only source for this statement is a light newspaper article from the 1980's. Dusty white exterior on cheeses is typically from beneficial molds, such as various forms of Geotrichum candidum and Penicillium camemberti - either intentionally added to the cheese during processing, or acquired naturally from the environment during aging. I think the writer of that article was misinformed, or misunderstood the dusty white exterior. --KimS012 (talk) 13:44, 9 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]


I have removed the references to Cheddar and Cheddar family as I have found no support for them in any British texts about cheese. Julianp 04:44, 19 Apr 2004 (UTC)
