During the aging process of "Rotten Cheese," a fly called Piophila casei deposits its eggs on the cheese. When the
maggots are born, they move throughout the cheese, excreting enzymes that give it an overwhelmingly pungent smell, a rotten
taste, and a soft, creamy texture. The cheese is served at weddings and other family gatherings.
