What's Good for Marijuana is Good for Gourmet Cheese PDF Print E-mail

Deep in a natural cave in Tennessee, where there once was a field of hydroponically grown dope - complete with an entire built complex of offices and bedrooms for caretakers - there will now be master artisans massaging salt on aging blue cheese rounds.

The gourmet cheesemaker Roth Kase of Southern Wisconsin bought the notorious “marijuana cave” forty miles out of Nashville after police busted the growers.

Caves have traditionally been used to age wine and cheese because they provide dark spaces with consistent moisture levels and cool temperatures. Today, aging of wine and cheese is usually conducted in a much more energy intensive way, in buildings with highly controlled thermoregulatory systems.

But Roth Kase is interested in attempting to rekindle the old cave aging tradition – as well as perhaps create a local foods tourist attraction. And although it appears that the famous Wisconsin cheese will have to be shipped to Tennessee to age (carbon footprint, ouch) the company is working with local food groups in Tennessee to find a regional market for their products.

Are you an Envirovore?

It's true what our moms said...we are what we eat. In fact, it's truer than they thought. What I eat doesn't just affect me anymore, it affects all of us.

Unfortunately, the story of food can sometimes be complicated. But envirovores help each other out...which is why this blog will be bringing you news, tips, and information about food and the environment every step of the way.
