It&rsquo;s a soft cheese, so it has a fairly limited storage time of several weeks, and its flavor gets sharper as it ages. After a couple of weeks past the printed date, it typically becomes too sharp to eat.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That super-sharp brie isn&rsquo;t spoiled in the usual meaning of the word, but it&rsquo;s no good if it&rsquo;s super sharp and intense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, flavor change isn&rsquo;t the only way brie goes bad. There are a couple of spoilage signs to look out for. Let&rsquo;s talk about them.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Baguette-sliced-topped-with-brie.jpg\" alt=\"Baguette slices topped with Brie\" class=\"wp-image-2120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Baguette-sliced-topped-with-brie.jpg 533w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Baguette-sliced-topped-with-brie-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 533px) 100vw, 533px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Baguette-sliced-topped-with-brie.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Baguette slices topped with Brie\" class=\"wp-image-2120 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Baguette-sliced-topped-with-brie.jpg.webp 533w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Baguette-sliced-topped-with-brie-200x300.jpg.webp 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 533px) 100vw, 533px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Baguette-sliced-topped-with-brie.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-2\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption>Baguette slices topped with Brie<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-tell-if-brie-is-bad\">How to Tell if Brie Is Bad?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p><strong>Your brie is bad if there&rsquo;s mold that&rsquo;s not native to the cheese, the color of the rind has changed, it has a strong smell that doesn&rsquo;t subside after a few minutes, or it tastes too sharp or pungent. Also, if it&rsquo;s more than a few weeks past the printed date, it&rsquo;s likely no good either.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those are the typical signs of spoilage for brie cheese. Next, let&rsquo;s talk about them in more detail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, inspect the rind of your brie. The bloom should be mostly white and powdery in appearance. If&nbsp;<strong>the rind seems overall gray or flaky<\/strong>, the cheese has likely started to spoil and should not be consumed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While&nbsp;<strong>some darker spots here and there are fine<\/strong>, if there&rsquo;s any mold not native to the cheese present, you should discard the dairy product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A slight ammonia smell does not indicate that the cheese has spoiled, and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/marinfrenchcheese.com\/faqs\/cheese-faq\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">is a natural byproduct of the cheese aging process<\/a>. Let the cheese air out for a few moments and give it another whiff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the rind still has a slight smell, but the paste (the inside that&rsquo;s under the rind) smells nice and creamy, it&rsquo;s fine to eat. But if the whole piece still smells strongly of ammonia after a few minutes, the cheese has probably turned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trust your nose &ndash; if the cheese smells really bad to you, then it&rsquo;s probably not good to eat.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"Melted Brie and cherry tomatoes\" class=\"wp-image-2125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes-600x400.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Melted Brie and cherry tomatoes\" class=\"wp-image-2125 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes-600x400.jpg.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes-768x512.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes.jpg.webp 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 48px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.canitgobad.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Melted-brie-and-cherry-tomatoes.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><figcaption>Melted Brie and cherry tomatoes<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Finally, we&rsquo;ve got taste and texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>As brie ripens, its center turns creamier (or more gooey), and the flavor sharpens.<\/strong>&nbsp;It&rsquo;s a welcome change if you like your brie more flavorful, but only to a certain point.
