Casu
marzu (also called casu modde, casu cundhídu or formaggio
marcio) is a traditional Sardinian cheese made from sheep's milk. Casu marzu
means "rotten cheese" in Sardinian and this cheese is also known as
maggot cheese. This cheese is forbidden to be consumed in the EU, but can be
found on the black market in Sardinia, Italy.
This cheese is made by using
the larvae of the cheese fly which belongs to the Piophila casei family. This
fly is also known as cheese skipper. This cheese is harmful to health because
it can cause abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea and intestinal myiasis or bowel
disease.
