Edam cheese has a very mild taste, slightly salty or nutty and almost no smell when compared to other cheeses. It also has a significantly lower fat content than many other traditional cheeses being approximately 28 percent with an average protein content of 25 percent. Also the cheese does not spoil easily, it takes about a year to spoil if unopened, a month if opened. Edam was actually the world's most popular cheese between the 14th and 18th centuries.
