Because the larvae in the cheese can launch themselves for distances up to 15 centimetres (6 in) when disturbed,[1][7] diners hold their hands above the sandwich to prevent the maggots from leaping. Those who do not wish to eat live maggots place the cheese in a sealed paper bag. The maggots, starved for oxygen, writhe and jump in the bag, creating a "pitter-patter" sound. When the sounds subside, the maggots are dead and the cheese can be eaten.[8]
OK THE MAGGOTS LEAP

also, sounds totally made up
sadly not
it's basically the most disgusting thing in the world

I'm fine with adventurous foods to an extent too but that is just wrong in every possible way. Sorry Sardinia.

wait is this about fear of holes (as google informs me trypophobia is) or just really porous stuff?

I kinda dig looking at all this stuff--do I have trypophilia?

xp Most people's reaction is "urgh disease, burn it with cleansing fire!", but maybe your reaction is "hey, disease happening to someone else instead of me!"?

Anyway, after about a month of working there, I developed all these little round holes in the skin on the bottom of my feet. I was pretty freaked out – I thought maybe it was leprosy or something. I had no fucking idea. My doctor said that my sweat was eroding the skin on my feet and maybe I should look into purchasing some better-ventilated footwear.

Although not truly trypophobia related, that reminds me of this one time I was riding my bike down a trail and came across this groundhog corpse with a huge chuck of flesh taken out of its back. The hole was writhing with maggots. I grabbed a couple sticks to move the body off the trail, but when I got close, the groundhog popped up and ran away!

google tells me it's "the irrational fear of clusters of holes, pods, circles, cracks, cuts, and other asymmetrical shapes especially those found in nature," so there ya go.
it's not a medically recognized phobia though. most likely it's a dedicated troll trying to start an internet meme. someone's been creating Wikipedia entries about it since 2005, but they keep getting deleted. in the words of some Wiki dudes:
Wikipedia is not for things made up one day. See http://www.geocities.com/holephobia/trypophobia.html for someone purporting to have invented this name in 2005. No evidence in Google Scholar for any actual phobia known by this term. ---Delete. Likely hoax and borderline patent nonsense: "Trypophobia is a serious fear of hole, which results in an all-over itchy feeling and general uneasyness." Google search seems to indicate a pattern of trolling: petitions to dictionaries to include the word, posts to answers.yahoo.com, attempts to insert the word (together with shock site images) in the World of Warcraft forums.

elsewhere on the internet are trypophobia.com, an ilxor.com thread by someone named "Jesse", and this surprisingly active facebook group,led by a certain M@sai Andr3ws, where people are like "omg I've been scared of Suriname toads and wasps' nests for as long as I can remember, finally I have a word for it!"
