Got Camel Milk?

Caravane, a cheese I found on the infinite cheese list provided by cheese.com, is a cheese made of Camel Milk. I found this to be very interesting. The main reason is that I did not even know that camels produced milk. According to cheese.com "Caravane is the brand name of a camel-milk cheese produced in Mauritania by Tiviski. The milk is collected by a thousand nomadic herdsmen, and is very difficult to produce, but yields a product that is low in lactose."

I knew that this cheese was not produced anywhere near here so I looked into it and found out that it is produce in Mauritania. Well I had never heard of that country so I looked into that and found that it is part of Africa.

I lost the source for this but "The Caravane camel cheese of a French brie style is on the market and promises to become a hit. Chocolate of camel milk is also being developed." YUCK, if you read the previous post you already know that I am not a fan of Brie. I tried in once during french class and I did not like it, not at all. Sorry, Caravane Cheese made of camel milk. I do not think I will be up to trying you anytime soon. Hopefully the camel milk chocolate turns up a bit better.
