The maggots

This: "Tiny worms often breed in the mish, but are not dangerous. The saying "the worms of the mish arise from it" means it is a problem that cannot be solved, but is not worth worrying about.[6] The maggots comes from flies laying eggs on the cottage cheese that is left to drain on a straw mat, by the farmer in the open air. Sometimes they add Borax to kill the maggots, but you cannot use again as fermenting agent."

...part of it has a citation to an LATImes article I can't access because I don't have subscription. But this part "The maggots comes from flies laying eggs on the cottage cheese that is left to drain on a straw mat, by the farmer in the open air. Sometimes they add Borax to kill the maggots, but you cannot use again as fermenting agent."...doesn't have a citation and seems hoax-y?? It is also at odds with the description in the "preparation" section, where it is said that the ingredients are dumped together and then put into a sealed jar.

Like Ancient Cheese?

If Mish includes red & green peppers, it can't be too like ancient cheese as peppers are New World plants. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.202.33.17 (talk) 14:44, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
