Being a lover of cheese, I like to use it in almost every dish I prepare. However, after moving to Kumily I have been having difficulty in procuring cheese; the only cheese which is sold in a few stores in Kumily is processed cheese slices and cubes which have more chemicals than cheese.
This has made me wonder why there is no cheese being made in Kumily. I believe cheese production is an industry which can be of benefit to Kumily; it’s dairy farmers and the local economy. I’m sure the tourists visiting Kumily would like to have a taste of Kumily’s own cheese.
The nearest location where cheese is being manufactured is Kodaikanal in Tamuzh Nadu which is about 165 kilometres away from Kumily and is yet another hill station like Kumily. The Kodai Cheese Factory has now become very successful and popular with the Tourists who like to visit and taste its bounty. Then why not consider cheese production in Kumily?
Being a recent inhabitant of Kumily and still unfamiliar with the dairy activity here in Kumily, I would like to request you our readers to share your thoughts on why cheese is not being produced in Kumily or if it is being produced; where is it being produced? Does Kumily’s altitude make it unfit for cheese production or is the milk from the local cows not suitable for making cheese? We seek your views here.
