Cameron Arsenault (16) Making Mozzarella

“It sounds like fun to me!” (And it was!)

It seems to us that by now everybody should know how it is easy to make Mozzarella with our 30 minute recipe. After all, we’ve been selling our kit for 17 years!

But, alas, there are many people out there who have no idea that they can make their own cheese, and, of course, it’s our mission to teach them.

We talk about it to everyone who will listen and Cameron Arsenault from Millers Falls, MA listened. He had no idea that he could make cheese and he thought it would be fun.

Of course, that’s the whey Cameron rolls – he’ll try anything and most of the time he loves it. He’s a sophomore in the 4 Rivers Charter School and he has a very wide range of interests: Anime (Japanese animation), Body Kombat, Ultimate Frisbee, and even Zumba, a high-aerobic dance exercise class.

Cameron’s anime character is named Eridan

Cameron took to making Mozzarella like a duck to water and now he’s a cheese maker:
