    It’s bacteria. They could probably go on a prophylactic antibiotics course and be fine. I’d be more concerned with how the favor changed due to the waste products over the years.

    I’m no cheesologist but I bet it tastes like garbage in its current form. I’d also bet they could analyze it and come up with a similar recipe they could try.

      Antibiotics wouldn’t protect from any toxic byproducts of bacterial decomposition. For example, recooking imroperly canned goods can kill the botulinum bacteria, but leaves deadly amounts of the botulinum toxin. There’s lots of reasons to not mess around with consuming questionable substances.
