Do you think that the more holes there are in Swiss cheese the better it tastes?

The holes are a by-product of bacterium consuming lactic acid in milk. The Swiss cheese bacterium, propionibacterium shermanii, consumes the lactic acid in the milk and gives off carbon dioxide which forms the "eyes. " It also converts it to acetate and propionic acid - which gives Swiss cheese its distinctive taste.

Swiss cheese's "eyes" are one factor used to grade it for quality in Switzerland. I imagine that larger eyes indicates a more advanced fermentation and more taste. I don't see that it would have anything to do with dryness though.

You are absolutely right. In general, the larger the eyes in a Swiss cheese, the more pronounced its flavor because a longer fermentation period gives the bacteria more time to act.

I think the hole is the air space made from the bubbles. I would say holes have nothing to do with the taste of the cheese.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
