In January of 2024, a rash of headlines breathlessly reported a cheesemaking "crisis" based on the news that manufacturers of the mold powders used in commercial cheesemaking are starting to have difficulty getting the molds to produce new spores.

In this interview with Josh Windsor, we dig into the science behind the headlines--and what it really means for cheeses of the future.
