Uncovering the World’s Oldest Cheese in Egypt
In 2018, Saqqara, Egypt was the spotlight of an incredible discovery: the world’s oldest-known solid cheese at 3,300 years old, found in a pharaoh’s tomb, fascinating yet inedible.

This ancient cheese, a blend of goat and cow milk, rested in a pharaoh’s official tomb. Deemed inedible due to potentially harmful bacteria, it remains untasted, guarded by its age and mysteries.
