Since I'd never had any fresh Mozzarella before as opposed to the rubbery crap they sell at the mega-mart) I decided to grab some of that for the review.

Fresh Mozzarella tastes nothing like the stuff you're used to grating on your pizza. It's not rubbery for one thing, and it has a taste that is quite distinctive. Very sweet, and more like cottage cheese in character. Very mild flavor. If I can get some larger balls of this I'd love to try making some pizza with it.

One cool thing about the Mozzarella - The "buffalo" Mozzarella is actually made from water buffalo. Italian water buffalo. I told my wife that and she flat out called me a liar. Maybe we're just too sheltered over here in America, but it's just hard to imagine herds of water buffalo wandering around Italy.

I forgot to see if the cat liked it.
