This explains why toxicologically hazardous quantities can only be found in heavily infected cheese with excessive proteolysis. Histamine degradation does probably not occur in cheese.

Signature of Candidate ______ ________________________________________________ Print name: Suruchi Pradhan ____________________________________________________________ 2 Abstract Iodine is an essential trace mineral. Iodine deficiency during pregnancy can lead to adverse postnatal consequences such as impaired mental development, reduced intelligence scores and impaired motor skills in the offspring of the deficient women (Khazan et al., 2013, Rayman et al, 2008). There is growing evidence in the UK of low dietary iodine intakes and potential iodine deficiency in vulnerable populations (pregnant women and women of child bearing age group) (Rayman and Bath, 2015, Vanderpump et al., 2011) and a paucity of information on the iodine content of food products. In developing countries where iodine deficiency is widespread, salt has successfully been used as a vehicle for iodine fortification, however iodised salt is not widely available in UK supermarkets and there are valid health concerns about promoting salt intake.

  • The Cheese Markets of the Netherlands by Lee Foster
    The Cheese Markets of the Netherlands by Lee Foster Few experiences satisfy the person who savors food and drink more than a journey to the source, the place where a favorite wine, cheese, or fruit is produced. The encounter imparts a knowledge of terrain and an appreciation of techniques used to make the prized food or drink. No book can teach this experience; no number of trips to the local delicatessen or bottle shop can equal it. For the appreciator of cheese, Dutch cheese is one of the gustatory glories of the Netherlands. The place to start is a good cheese store in Amsterdam. Beyond Amsterdam, you can visit the cheese markets at Alkmaar and at Gouda. You can also visit a cheese-making farm, Clara Maria, near Amsterdam. Details can be easily arranged by the Netherlands Board of Tourism office, www.holland.com. Cheese Shops in Amsterdam Cheese shops in Amsterdam, such as Abraham Kef’s, 192 Marninxstraat, are the places to make your first encounter with Dutch cheeses. At Kef’s you can make a tasting ceremony of cheese and wine. First, try a slice of Gouda, which is 60 percent of all the cheese produced in the Netherlands. Half of this Gouda is exported, making the Dutch one of the world’s largest exporters of cheese. Ask for a piece of Young Gouda, about three months old, which is imported to the U.S. labeled Young or Mild Gouda. Most Goudas are whole milk cheeses with a fat content of 48 percent. The Young Gouda has a creamy, buttery taste.

    DAIRY AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL On the economic importance and quality of the Dutch dairy sector Summary Quality and cooperation The Dutch dairy sector largely owes its strong global market position to high, consistent quality and a capacity for innovation. From our world-famous Gouda and Edam cheeses to milk powder and high-quality ingredients: dairy from the Netherlands is synonymous with the highest quality. This quality is the result of Dutch dairy farmers’ and producers’ years of experience and craftsmanship, as well as close cooperation with knowledge institutes and the government. Take a look behind the scenes of a high-quality food industry with a unique quality system. 2 Dairy at the highest level Dairy at the highest level 3 Foreword/Contents Dutch dairy at the highest level We never really talk about quality. We simply take continuously working on improving the quality of euros in turnover. This is a stable industry, which is for granted the fact that our products are in order our products, and safeguarding our processes and deeply rooted in Dutch society. That makes the every day. That’s simply a precondition. Consumers making them more sustainable. We all do this dairy sector robust. Precisely because of this we can must be able to trust that every Dutch dairy together.

  • Cheese in the European Union
    Cheese in the European Union The EU produced 10.5 m t (million tonnes) of cheese in 2019 EU cheese production 2009-2019 m t 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 Source: Eurostat Types of cheese produced in EU Fresh Soft Semi soft Hard Blue Within these broad categories there is a lot of variation in colour, texture, consistency and taste. How long the cheese is aged for, and under what conditions, is key to the final outcome. For example, some cheeses are wrapped in cloth and left to mature in caves, others are repeatedly washed with brine or alcohol (washed-rind or smear-ripened), while others are sealed in wax. Various bacteria can be introduced during production to give the cheese a soft, bloomy rind (like Camembert), or air holes known as ‘eyes’ (as with Danish Harvati), or green-blue veins (such as French Roquefort or Italian Gorgonzola). These latter two cheeses have been granted a Protected Designation of Origin (or PDO) under an EU quality scheme for food and wine, aimed at protecting traditional production processes and unique regional products. There is also a Protected Geographical Indication (PGI), which emphasises the unique geographical origin of a cheese or other foodstuff. The type of milk used also influences the final flavour of cheese 2% 2% 4% Cow’s milk: 9,658 m t (92% of total cheese production) Sheep milk: 231 m t (2% of total cheese production) Goat milk: 203 m t (2% of total cheese production) Other (buffalo and mixed milks): 444 m t 92% (4% of total cheese production) Source: Eurostat • Cow’s milk is mild, sweet and creamy – 92% of the EU’s cheese is made from pure cow’s milk • Sheep milk is more tangy and grassy – just over 2% of EU cheese is made from pure sheep milk • Goat milk has the most ‘farmyard’ aroma and taste – just under 2% of EU cheese is made from pure goat milk • 4% Cheeses made from ‘other’ milks make up the remaining 4% of EU cheeses, such as buffalo or even reindeer milk, or a mixture of milks.
