The Itallian buffalo is by no means extinct. It is still possible to find proper buffalo mozarella, but you might not find it in your everyday supermarket. If you can find it, don’t waste it on pizza! It’s delicious with tomatoes, basil and a splash of olive oil.

(On pre-view I see that **Desmo** beat me to it with the very same link that I found. I guess he knows about google.)

**Oh.**  
:smack:  
I was responding sarcastically (and ignorantly) from the premise that somebody was having **curly chick** on…

So now my ignorance of buffalo milk mozzarella cheese has been defeated!

Sorry, **curly chick**!

Thanks, **Desmostylus** and **Popup**!

Blessed are the googlers of cheesemakers !
