Show Notes

Victor Varnado, KSN, and Rachel Teichman, LMSW, explore the infamous Sardinian delicacy, casu marzu—cheese that comes with a side of live maggots. This extreme dish is both a culinary tradition and a controversial food banned in many places. The hosts discuss the science behind its fermentation and why some consider it a delicacy. Would you ever take a bite?
