Big pool of liberated cheese oil with wax-like cheese substance inclusions. Pretty sure he gets wax whether he likes it or not.
Quality brie doesn't have a wax rind. The cheese will naturally develop a rind as the cheese ages. It's edible but I remove it because I don't care for the texture.
But if you over bake it, the "cheese" residue swimming in the oil has a somewhat waxy texture. Still tastes good though - better once it cools off. Triple cream Brie is more prone to this.
I whargarblld it, sorry...

Oh I see. I always watch it carefully not overbake it so it's been a long time since I've had broken down cheese wax. One bad brie taught me to take it out when it is just melted and not a moment longer.
Alas, I've done it twice
