There is only one true Camembert. It’s French and bears the name “Camembert de Normandie.” You won’t find it in the good old USA.
Why not? Well, the phrase on the box sums it up. Au Lait Cru. Thanks FDA for keeping us safe from this monstrosity. There are some nice pasteurized versions of Camembert coming out of France, but the good Camembert has recently started popping up in other places.
Even though they are technically not the real thing, some cheesemakers are taking a shot and making Camembert-style cheeses that stand up to it.
