Is It Safe To Eat Cheese That Has Mold On It?

Sometimes a mold is supposed to be there, like the white fluffy rind on a Brie. That's normal and even edible (it's a matter of preference). However, if you see mold or fuzz on a fresh cheese, like cottage cheese or cream cheese or creme fraiche, toss it. If it is on a firmer cheese, you can just cut it off and eat the rest. It won't hurt you, but it could affect the flavor of cheese.
