👉 Mandelate is a type of cheese that was first made in 1639 by the French philosopher and mathematician Jean-Baptiste Léonard de Montesquieu. It is known for its distinctive texture, which is often described as having "a smooth, creamy consistency akin to marshmallows." The name "mandelate" comes from a reference to the mandelbrot set, a fractal created by mathematician Graham Kemp in 1983
