What era did cheese balls first become popular?!


Question:

What era did cheese balls first become popular?

a debate has arisen as to when cheese balls were first used at parties. One person thought it was during the victorian era. I know they served cheese in that era... but I didn't ever read that they served cheese balls.


Answers:
Depends on what you mean by cheese balls.

If you mean something like bocconcini (baby mozarella) they have been eaten for centuries.

If you mean the tasteless, processed, waxed crap then they are a recent product - last 20 or 30 years.
