Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent explain goat cheese and its styles, relay production, regional traditions and protected designations from cheese and food sources, describe nutrition and pairing, and distinguish goat cheese from sheep and cow cheeses and from feta-style cheeses.

Cheese made from goat s milk, produced worldwide in styles from fresh, soft and tangy chevre to aged, hard and blue cheeses, with a strong French tradition of protected cheeses such as Picodon, Selles-sur-Cher, Chevrotin and Charolais, artisanal cheeses such as Truffe de Ventadour, and goat cheeses from Spain, Greece, the Netherlands and beyond including island cheeses such as Takamaka; goat cheese is prized for its flavour and is often tolerated by people sensitive to cow s milk, though it still contains lactose.

What it is for: Food.

It can be explain styles; relay production and traditions; describe nutrition; distinguish related cheeses.

What the second pass must settle

  • Should chevre and the French AOP cheeses be separate primary entries?
  • How should cheese sources be linked?
  • The registry entry has merged aliases naming specific cheeses; should they be split off?
