this seems ridiculous, why not just shut the window blind?

But that won't give you that cheesy smell.

According to the article the smell diappears after 30 seconds
So for a quick&dirty solution it should be fine

Well, the article lies. Every time there’s high air humidity there’s a distinct and worsening sour smell. My school did this to our bathroom windows (because it was more environmentally friendly than plastic options). Ugh.

Wonder if the type of yoghurt influences it? It looks pretty humid over in the UK right now

In the experiment from the article, they used Greek yogurt with 10% fat content.

Yeah, that's why I brought it up!
