Cheddar Cheddar
Hey Crystal, I’ve been chewing over the idea that the crystal-like structures in aged cheddar might teach us something about strengthening alloys—think you’d be up for a quick taste of that science?

Sure, aged cheddar does have those calcium‑lactate crystals that can act like precipitates in an alloy. I’d need a sample, some XRD data, and then I can model how they might strengthen a metal matrix. But the “taste” part? I’ll leave that to the cheese expert; I’m all about the data, not the bite.
