A comment on Organ transplant patients may not get dementia. Parent comment

Most cheese, if not all, doesn't have yeast in it. It's bacteria that ferment it.

Though I guess it will have as much wild yeast land on it as any other food in your plate but I don't think that's what the parent comment was referencing.

Umm, yeast is a common surface flora on many cheeses (probably all natural rind cheeses), and you can in fact buy packets of Debaryomyces Hansenii and Candida Utilis from Danisco specifically for use in cheese. Source: I'm involved in cheesemaking.
