Was my dad correct?

[Anonymous]

My father told me a long time ago that the reason cheeses have holes is because rats eat through them while they're stored.

People think I'm joking when I state this fact. Who else do you think is stealing the cheese? The holes averaging over 10% of total volume, can you imagine how much is lost in dollars when in 2022, the global market value of cheese stood at roughly 83.4 billion U. S. dollars? You think it just disappears? There is something called the law of conservation of mass. Is that a lie too? In this case, he was correct. He taught me that school is full pseudoscience, and that includes the law of conservation of mass.

Yes

No

Oh my god I love how you're keeping your dad's dumbness alive in you.

Both of you should watch cheese making documetaries. It would blow your minds.

He would of had a good comparison if he would have said Swiss cheese was like your paycheck. Overall, it looks like you are earning a lot. But after the government gets done eating at it. There is many holes in it.

@roosterbreast. Thank you for the MHO.

They don't eat ALL the cheese. When it's in semi liquid form they sit in it like an innertube on the river. That's why mozzarella comes in water.

Your dad was messing with you and you fell for it hardcore.


Holes in cheese are created by air bubbles.

Hole are there because bacteria fart in the cheese, creating these fart bubbles.

It's probably the gerbils. I don't trust them.

Cheese has holes
More cheese equals more holes
More holes equals less cheese
More cheese equals less cheese

[AviatorTom]

The holes are caused by bacteria during the cheese making process. Your dad is pulling your leg.

No he wasn’t correct. Parents lie to their children all the time

[Asker]

So I can't trust a word he says?

[BarryLiverstone]

You are an adult now. You should be able to trust most of what he says
