☆ I bathed in cheese in the Swiss mountains — here's what the experience was like

The experience of bathing in whey, a byproduct of cheese manufacture, dates back to the 1800s. Traditional Swiss dairy Alpkäserei Gerschnialp produces 35 tons of cheese a year, using milk from nearby dairies. Local producer Sälmi Töngi offers the whey baths as an add-on to a tour of his cheese production. The dairy uses traditional methods to turn local milk into four different types of Swiss cheese. That makes about 350,000 kilos of cow's milk, which is about 32 tons of cheese.
