I buy inexpensive hard cheese from different manufacturers. Recently I began to notice that most types of such cheese have honey notes.

It seemed to me that the cheese contained honey, but this was not written on the label.

Is there something wrong with my taste or is this evidence of a violation of cheese making technology?

    milk fat substitutes, calcium chloride and many other bad things

    Just because this comment can be easily misinterpreted:

    • Milk fat substitutes are just plant oils.
    • Calcium chloride is what they inject into you if you have a severe calcium deficiency. It’s just calcium salt. Your regular table salt is Sodium chloride. Nigari is magnesium chloride used to make tofu. All three are salts that can be extracted from normal seawater.

    Both plant fats and CaCl2 are natural, neither of them are “bad” (when, like everything, they’re consumed in sensible amounts) and they should not be lumped in with “other bad things”, even if you don’t like those ingredients in your cheese.
