Created by air produced during the fermenting process!. A few years back the Swiss had problems with Emmenthal cheese!. They started exploding! By the way, Emmenthal has the large holes and Gruyère has smaller holes!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

LoL!. People don't make the holes in Swiss cheese, it's the bacteria that does that nifty trick!. They "eat" holes through the cheese, like beachbab said!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
