Total carbon footprint of cheese?[edit]

If I read the sources and did the arithmetic right it adds up to about the same as Spain. Anyone like to check that using your own sources and arithmetic? Chidgk1 (talk) 18:20, 10 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Serial commas appear in most of the introduction, but there's a spot where one is missing. Please add a comma after "chives". 49.198.51.54 (talk) 11:02, 11 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

quick fix[edit]

paragraph 2 needs brackets around annatto to make it a wiki link

like this: annatto

because a lot of people don't know that annatto is a simple seed 73.170.203.143 (talk) 05:22, 7 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Please amend this

Most cheeses achieve their final shape when the curds are pressed into a mold or form.

like so:

Most cheeses achieve their final shape when the curds are pressed into a mold or form, traditionally producing large cheese wheels or small barrel-shaped truckles.

Not done. Too many different types of cheeses to generalize to "wheels" and "truckles". Perhaps that information is best suited for Cheesemaking. ◢ Ganbaruby!  (talk) 03:32, 14 December 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
