The Cheese Nun


Ever heard of this video? I saw it a long time ago, so the details are somewhat sketchy. Sister Noella Marcellino is a Benedictine nun with an aptitude for making cheese. If memory serves right, she is armed with a PhD. in micro-biology, and has growing, intercontinental reputation as an established expert of cheese-manufacturing. Sister Marcellino applies her knowledge towards advancing the skills of inexperienced American cheese manufacturers.


One thing I vividly recall from the video is the abbey Sister Marcellino was from. These weren't your typical nuns from the Sound of Music. Some of them drove tractors on monastery grounds, and yet another nun was an arborist and was responsible for maintaining the trees. This nun repelled from them!
