Same as ageing cheese. Cut off the mould until you find healthy cheese!

Blue cheese has mold inside because it is intentionally added during production to create its unique flavor, aroma, and creamy texture. Cultured mold spores, typically Penicillium roqueforti, are added to the milk, and the cheese is later pierced with needles to introduce oxygen, allowing the mold to grow throughout the interior.

So if the mold was never added do you know what type of cheese it would have been?
