How long is it safe to leave a sealed in wax cheese out of the fridge?
Was at a farm shop on Friday (22/11) and bought my parents some Christmas presents, locally made oatcakes, pickles and a cheese in wax (dated well into next year). Got home and forgot about the cheese until today (25/11). Have put it in the fridge now but is it likely to make them ill if I give them it in a month’s time?
Hard cheeses sealed in wax can keep for quite a while. If it’s a hard cheese, afaik it’s safe to just cut away any mould. If it’s cheese with holes and it’s mouldy, that’s probably more difficult to remove any mould.
