That would be the most understandable portion of the whole shindig. Fungi are a major idea (and everywhere in science fiction) for how to deal with interstellar travel because of their unique niche in the various cycles of life. I would bet an alien species that can travel through the vast reaches of space would also be familiar with using biotechnology.

but fungi aren't inherent to cheese lol, most cheese doesn't have more than an ambient amount of fungus in it
