How long can a cheese like Cotswold safely be kept at room temperature?


Recommended Posts

Cotswold is a cheese similar to cheddar that has onions and chives in it.  Do the onions and chives present any special hazard? I'm a bit of a paranoiac about botulism.

The cheese is already aged a few months, I wouldn’t worry about a few more hours. The manufacturing process has already been approved as not spreading botulism to the world, I don’t think you’re at risk. 

 

Plus, how likely is it that fresh raw produce is added to cheese curds?  Wouldn’t the onions more likely be cooked or dried?
