Casu marzu is a Sardinian cheese with the singularity to be pre-digested by cheese flies’ maggots.
Wait! it gets better : "Casu marzu is considered toxic when the maggots in the cheese have died. Because of this, only cheese in which the maggots are still alive is eaten" (from Wikipedia)
This documentary in German brings us closer to this old and tasty tradition.

Oh gross. I saw this on telly recently and I was very nearly violently sick. It makes it worse as the only cheese I can stomach is the stuff on a pizza.
