What is that?
Looks like cheese to me. Is it really slime mould?
Yes, it's cheese, but no, it's not really slime mold on the outside.
It's a class of organism called "smear bacteria", most commonly B. Linens is used to ripen the class of cheeses called "washed rind".
Alsatian Munster, Pont l'Eveque, Epoisses, and Vacherin Mont d'Or are some of the more famous of that type.
Very funky smelling but not terribly strong tasting when cared for propery; they are slightly spicy, fruity and sometimes vegetal or meaty tasting.
