In the US, if a cheese isn't pasteurized it has to be aged. And if it's unaged it has to be pasteurized. There's a slew of traditional cheeses that can't be imported or sold here.

    Do they taste better or something? What's the benefit?

    Why are you laughing? I'm asking a serious question. What's the benefit of unpasteurized cheese?

    • It's much older than pasteurised cheese, obviously.
    • if done properly the cheese bacteria will prevent others from colonising it.
    • it tastes like actual cheese.
