I have never eaten the mold or even tried it because when I was a child I developed allergies to Penicillin due to the fact that I was treated with this for a long time after being diagnosed with Rheumatic Fever. I am now 56, live a whole foods lifestyle so cheese is a major staple for me. I have never had any problems with Brie cheese but I would not take a chance with eating the mold because of the Penicillin. I love Brie cheese.

The rind is pure white, and the cheese is a beautiful color, but the ammonia smell is throwing me. I have never tried this particular kind until tonight--Martin and Collet French Brie. I don't know that I've had a French Brie before, but I do not recall it smelling like ammonia. Please help! Hi Angie, great questions about the smell of ammonia in cheese. I asked my buddy Cheeseman Jack Morgan from Downtown Cheese at The Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia and posted his reply at <a href="http://www.reluctantgourmet.com/blog/all-about-cheese/stinky-brie-cheese/" rel="nofollow">Stinky Brie Cheese</a> - RG I have read conflicting responses on other sites about the ammonia smell to the Brie.
