Hi,
I’m new to fancy cheeses. I usually eat brie and thought I would try camembert. I opened it up and the smell is very pungent, which I’ve read is good, but it also has these weird wet brown spots on it. Can someone tell me if it’s supposed to look like this? Tysm

May be bad Camembert but looks like a most excellent tortilla.
Sniff it
It is yeast, that amount suggests it’s a little over but still good to eat
It might be a little riper than prime but not bad by any stretch. Give it a taste and see whether you like it or not
Only if you don’t like camembert.
if it smells like pee…toss
Looks fine to me. Generally, when stored in a refrigerator, soft rind cheeses will dry out before they go bad.
i thought orange mold was bad? can anyone educate me?
