CBlue Cheese
Aged · Cheeses (Hard)
Graded C — 39 out of 100, #17 of 25 cheeses. Clean label carries the score (72/100); protein drags it down (24/100).
The short version: The mold is the point — intense flavor, intense numbers.
The catch: Sodium and saturated fat both run high — a flavor bomb, not a staple.
