Yep that's it. Everything good in life comes from bacteria. Cheese, wine, cured meat, beer and all the good things in the world are the result of fermentation (ok the Austin Healey is not fermented in any way that I am aware of, but everything else).

At BiteOn we believe that bacteria are our true friends. We used a mesophilic starter culture in making this gorgeous pepper jack (there will be fully aged pictures coming soon - in cheese parley that is around 2 mo).
My contribution to BiteOn will be my cooking (both the successes and the failures) as well as general cooking and entertaining related fair. My favorite new hobby, as you probably guessed, is cheese making. Hard, soft, cultured, or otherwise, I simply love the process. I am also not thrilled with the cheese sites out there and the way they instruct so I will be posting video and tutorials along the journey. Keep in mind I have only made 6 cheeses so far and have only tasted one (it was awesome but not ready yet) so don't treat this as the cheese bible or anything. However if you are like me and could totally care less about failure then you can cook along with me and my family.
