World's smelliest cheese
Scientists at a Bedfordshire university have found what could be the smelliest cheese in the world.
Vieux Boulogne, a soft cheese from northern France, beat 14 other whiffy varieties in tests.
Experts at Cranfield University - who led the research - used an "electronic nose" to analyse the cheese odours, along with a panel of 19 human testers.
English Cheddar, aged between six and 24 months, was one of the least smelly cheeses tested, along with Parmesan.

Cranfield is the village that I grew up in, so that's really rather bizarre to think they are doing that research there.

My host moms summer home was near Boulogne and her boyfriend loved that cheese.
I can attest to that...it definitely is the smelliest.
