    Default Favourite cheese

    Any cheese fans here?
    My personal favs are camembert for any sort of crackers/biscuits etc. and strong, mature cheddar for anything else, like in sandwiches and for cooking.

    Your turn.

    I'll just like cheese, no matter from where they come from.... at least my pizza delivery, burger, hotdogs, even my homemade instant noodle, is always with extra cheese topping... but the best cheese is still the mozarella... they're just like spicy bubblegum that capable to be swalloeed..

    Dificult question...

    ...I LOVE cheese!


    Its gotta be a list:

    Feta
    Haloumi
    Kefalotyri
    Emendal
    Shropshire Blue
    Very Mature cheddar
    Dolcelatte

    Many more too, and the stinkier the better!

    Not a big fan of brie and camembert myself...

    I had a very traumatic experience 2 months ago. I was visiting Malaysia and went to a Carreffour in Melaca (I work in the super market business and wanted to check how different it is from a local Carreffour). I looked for the Cheese isle...there wasnt one, there was only 1 meter worth of shelf dedicated to cheese and it only had those melted cheese nonsense you put on top of burgers! This is blasphemy! They do not eat cheese there!! Heretics...

    Just forgive their blasphemy, as they didn't understand what they do...

    Normal Malayans, as well as Indonesians, and another South East Asians didn't like cheese too much... even some of them hate their taste. I was an exception.

    Mountain cheese from my local dealer! Hell, it tastes good....spicy, melting on the tongue & awesome straight with good bread.

    Gotta add Goat´s cheese, the one that melts away easy..hmmm.
    Pecorino/ Parmesan for all sorts of Pasta

    Not a big fan off the strong stuff... anything with too much of a smell and i can't eat it

    We have a local called '5 counties' which is 5 different cheeses slapped into one multicoloured block... thats pretty nice but mostly i eat mild cheddars...

    Parmigiano-Reggiano. Good on... well... everything.

    A good strong Swiss can do for me as well.

    Can't eat stinky cheese, heck, I can't even get my face close to the stuff.

    Roquefort. Smells like you've just done a number two and wiped up, but some of it got past the paper and onto your hands. For the full glory, don't smell the cheese in its native form, but crumble a little in your fingers, then smell your fingers.

    NO. NO.

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!


    edit: To clarify, American Cheese is an abomination upon the world of cheese. If the UN has any justification for shackling the US with oppressive restrictions, it is because we introduced that scourge upon the world.

    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
