2. Casu Marzu \u2013 Sardinia, Italy<\/h2>\n

Casu Marzu is certainly not for the faint-hearted. Known as the \u201cmaggot cheese,\u201d this Sardinian delicacy is made from sheep\u2019s milk and intentionally infested with live larvae<\/strong>. While it may sound unusual, the larvae break down the fats in the cheese, creating a soft texture and strong, tangy flavor.<\/p>\n

3. Bitto Storico \u2013 Italy<\/h2>\n

Bitto Storico is a hard, aged cheese from the Lombardy region<\/strong> of Italy, produced only during the summer months from cows grazing on alpine grasses.
