Last week, our crew spent five magical days at Cheese Camp — a.k.a the American Cheese Society Conference in Pittsburgh! We made sure to sit down and interview some of our cheesemaking idols, and you'll hear those conversations in future episodes.
But first, since we missed last week's drop, we have a special treat: Alex sat down with journalist, author, and podcaster Simran Sethi, who spoke about biodiversity and cheese at the conference! They talk similarities between the cheese and chocolate worlds, food justice in the specialty food space, and about Simran's next project, which examines the relationship between food and identity, starting with cheese. Check out her excellent book, Bread, Wine, Chocolate: The Slow Loss of Foods We Love, and give her excellent chocolate podcast, The Slow Melt, a listen!
