In Homer’s Odyssey, the second oldest work of Western literature written almost 3000 years ago, the mythical, man-eating Cyclops derived their terrifying power and strength from their shepherd’s diet of sheep’s cheese and milk. Sheep are one of the first animals domesticated by man, and their milk and its products were most likely among the first “processed” foods that humans created. And while cow’s milk has come to dominate these days, there are plenty of good reasons why you might want to choose the deliciously creamy flavours of, say, an Ossau-Iraty, a cheese with a history almost as long as the Odyssey.
