I've been on a goat cheese kick recently. It's really good but also very expensive

Costco sells big portions of chevre for a lot less money than grocery stores. It freezes well too so don't have to rush to eat it.

Jarlsberg, Roquefort and Brie

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

+Roquefort gang.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I can't! I think Roquefort but I will surely miss the other two

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Its ok, I know these decisions are hard but they make you harder for having made them ;)

Aged Havarti is mighty tasty

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Ahh, yes. The refined taste of feet, but in a good way, somehow.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Blue cheese. The stinkier, the better.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

~~Blue cheese has mold in it.~~

I really like blue cheese as well. I didn't like it at first, but over time I have liked it more and more.

That's a tough one! I'm gonna say... mimolette. I mighta said manchego but only if I can have membrillo with it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well, then I'm going to say manchego, even without membrillo.

Few years ago in Burlington, VT. I had a beer soaked rind soft cheese. Whatever that was... was my fav.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I dont typically care for beer but I recognize it has culinary value, potentially :/

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I would say that there was not a noticeable beer taste.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (6 children)

Same with marinaras that very tastefully integrate wine

Chechil, it’s like a salty, chewier, briny version of western string cheese.

Been on a warm brie with apples and prosciutto kick lately.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I feel like people would be happier if they always had a "kick" or a "thing" going on continuously that they were perpetually trying or experimenting with.

Like on Sunny, they always have like a thing or "type-deal" going on that makes things fresh

Edit: I might even do a Griecko-thing next week. Charlie seemed to really get a kick off it and so did I

Reblochon, especially on the winter, it's a classic and delicious one

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Sharp white cheddar.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

English cheddar. American cheddar is bland and rubbery, the English takes the flavor to 11 and adds a nice nutty flavor along with it melting a lot better than American. I think second would have to be blue cheese, I just love how pungent it is.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Crumbly Cheshire cheese. Wenslydale too.

I like cheese that's salty and makes your jaw muscles clench.

Not commonly found outside Wales, I think, but the best cheese I've ever had is Caerphilly cheese.

Chick'n parmesan, im with u on that lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I'd say Le Gruyère, Comté, Fontina, Manchego and Gamle Ole. Honorable mentions to Jarlsberg.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Does anyone know what the deal with American Processed Cheese is, like that McDonalds uses? Is it available in Canada (and don't say Velveeta or Kraft Singlesβ€”its just not the same thing)?
