 Mozzarella cheese

 Last month , I have read a news about Mozzarella Cheese. Few days ago, I read another news about it. The French government stopped and held the cargo with Mozzarella from Napoli and the Italy government announced to collect back the suspected contaminated Mozzarella Cheese.

There were 66 of buffalos had been found excess DIOXINS inside their body. That is why the Mozzarella cheese has been contaminated. The Mozzarella is made from buffalo’s milk! DIOXINS is a chemical which increases the likelihood of cancer.  It is considered as a serious threat to public health and the most dangerous toxins. The first disease associated with dioxins was the extreme skin disease chloracne. It causes acne-like pustules to form across the body and can last for several years.

Authentic Neapolitan Pizza Margherita, the base for most kinds of pizza.

Mm… It seemed the contaminated areas are widely spread in Napoli. The main cause is the rubbish crisis. I know Mozzarella Cheese is one of the ingredient added on the pizza. Though I know it is not in the main cuisine. I am wondering about how the italian to adapt not to have Mozzarella Cheese in their daily life lol???
