Sounds like the plot of the next Bond movie.
This is the most glorious food known to man.
Aka, cheese
All cheese is delicious.
*My favorite's gouda
But Comté cheese is not your ordinary variety.
This hard aged cheese can sell for $43 a pound on the cheese black market (Yes, this exists, cheese is the most stolen food product in the world) because it's a rare unpasteurized formulation specific to the Franche-Comté region.
And much to the authorities' surprise, 100 wheels of this particular cheese were stolen from a French store.
That's 8,818 pounds of cheese smuggled in the dead of night.
What would you do for your love of cheese?
