Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Actually, I don't remember the guys name....or where exactly but I did find out at some.

Here's what I remember.

The guy was going for a trip across a dessert or something of that nature that was really hot. So back in those days people made canteen like things out of the inards of animals, as they did with alot of things.

So he had a goat stomach canteen if I remember correctly, and put milk in it. While he was travelling, the heat curdled and spoiled the milk, and the chemicals in the stomach actually changed it into cheese.

Now I was in like 6th grade when I did this research so I wasn't too thorough in finding out how and what went on from that to get us to mass production of cheese, but I'm pretty sure that's "how" it came about.
