Cheesey

[david johnson]

I like -

extra sharp cheddar
gouda
provolone
havarti
swiss
rat cheese (that's what the old guy at the market called it)
and american (for sandwiches)

I do not enjoy any bleu, but my sons do.

What do you all like?

Pretty much everything, particuarly French cheeses. I prefer lighter, creamer cheeses to smoked cheeses. Examples include Truffee, Edem, Havarti, Fol Epi, etc. I love it when they bring the cheese cart over, except I'd much prefer the chocolate.

Still, there are so many wonderful regional cheese in the world that can't be found far from where they are made!!

One of these is telemea.



I also like French cheese, especially varieties of Camembert, Brie and Bleu, and Italian such as gorgonzola and mozzarella.

Good strong cheddar without any appalingly sticky aftertaste.

So you did taste it, right?

Făgăraș is a town in the Brașov county. Yes, their cheese is also on the list of protected designation of Romanian origin, only not as "telemea de Făgăraș" but as "brânză de Făgăraș " ("brânză" means cheese).

Now the best way to eat it Romanian cheese is either with tomatoes and onions or with polenta and cream; in any case, țuica is de rigueur.

Yes - it's different, perhaps an acquired taste. For those unfamiliar with it, it is a mix of cheese and sour cream.  But now I am getting hungary...

I hope you'll stop at our borders though...

I like a lot of different kinds of cheese:

Havarti
Muenster
Gruyere
Monterey Jack
Colby Jack
Gouda
Baby Swiss
Butterkase
Provolone

I would definitely like to try more cheeses. I never have had any of the soft French cheeses like Brie or Camembert, although I tried Bleu cheese one time and the stinch of that cheese alone was enough make me nauseous.
