Banned — Casu Marzu; the legendary maggot infested cheese of Sardinia.

Let me paint you a picture. It’s an undisclosed time in pre-history. The beautiful land that will one day be Sardinia is filled with smiling shepherds, milking their sheep and making delicious pecorino cheese. But one cheese gets left behind, forgotten in a dark corner and when it’s rediscovered, an enterprising fly has laid its eggs within and its now coursing with maggots. Gross? That shepherd didn’t think so, he ate it up, maggots and all, and so Casu Marzu was born.
