No favorites, all of the above. We have dairies all around this area, they produce all of those varieties locally and quite a few more. (Is TGPO included in 'Other'?)

Mozzerella

I guess I forgot to include tgpo. Although I presume he would fall under "Government".

Cheddar. There's only one thing it doesn't go well with - ice cream

Ever tried?

I like cheddar too, I am definitely not a fan of anything strong. I don't eat much of it anyway.

English Stilton, or that Australian Stilton.

Cheese made from sheep's milk. No Capmaster inference here you sicko's
I mean Parmigiano cheese from Parma. Luv the stuff, especially
with a good italian pasta sauce.

Hmmmm...

There goes the chance of breaking a record and actually keeping
an OT thread on topic.

With your skills it should only be a matter of time and a short
time at that. Hey.. you may even be headhunted!

Cheese sucks. It tastes like crap. If I had to choose, I would probably say string cheese or cheese in a taco.

888888888888,

I get the impression you are a twelve year old? Am I far off? String Cheese?

Good grief!!! Have you no taste at all that does not have 12 spoons of sugar in it?????

Get a piece of real cheese, not the processed "cheese food' that Kraft and Borden produce by the hundred ton lot. Bite and savour. Even the choice above of "Government Cheese" is better. I tasted it one time and it was a damned good cheddar.

I make cheese, here at home, lad, and there is a big difference between the mass produced pap and a real cheese.

Those of you who have voted for mozzarella have probably never tasted the real thing. It is made daily because it only has a shelf life of a day or 2. Turns into a clot of chalky crap when stored.

The only cheese that does not improve with age. Get hold of some 24 month Cheddar, or an old Stilton, with a creamy veined cheese, Bleu or a good Gorgonzola. Good god, to die for.

Suffer, fools, eat your Borden's and Kraft. more for me.

Cheers,

George

I've always loved cheese - real cheese. I'll use american cheese on cheeseburgers when I can't get cheddar, but cheddar is better. Sharp cheddar, not the sissified mainstream stuff gmatov mentioned.

I remember the first time I discovered a specialty store called Columbus Food Market. They had every cheese imaginable there. I stood in the aisle, kneeled, and shouted "praise the Lord, I've found cheeses".

[Cobra]

eat your Borden's and Kraft

I will, don't worry! The best cheese I eat is the extra-mature Scottish cheddar that Sainsbury's make. Aside from that, I don't like it.

I did try some cheese in France once - it was semi-set so it came in a blob and slowly flowed all over the plate. That was quite tasty, so I think it really depends on the cheese for me.

Seafood I just don't eat.

My least favorite cheese was discovered recently when I was in the middle-east. Cow cheese is very hard to find and goat cheese is everywhere (no comments from the peanut gallery please :P ). It had the consistency of putty and tasted like what I imagine old gym socks would taste like :P

[Cobra]

I wonder if tasting nastiness is cheese is genetic? I know we were tasting a poison in the lab a while back to demonstrate genetic polymorphism in humans, and this chemical was similar to one that gives brussels sprouts their nasty twinge for some people.

The Asian guy in front of me was gagging at 4 parts per million. I got up to 1000 parts per million (couldn't go higher or I might hurt myself) and still nothing. This explains why I can stand sprouts, and that guy hates them.

Perhaps there are similar chemicals found in cheeses?

Well considering cheese is made by controlled putrification of milk perhaps there are some that can't stand it

I was born in Wisconsin so I was raised to love cheese. My favorites are Bleus like Stilton or Danish. There's a brand here in MN called St. Peters Select which is aged in caves right here in MN that is a really good Danish Bleu. I also love sharp cheddars, especially good white sharp cheddar. I've also been quite surprised by habanero jack cheese. Pepper jack is one thing but the sweet flavor of habaneros go with cheese a lot better. If you've got a cheese dish leave a chunk of it out a room temperature so it stays soft and then put in on crackers; fantastic. Of course both Parmesan and Romano cheeses are a must for recipes. I only ever use big chunks of the stuff, never the canned crap from the store. And whoever came up with smoked cheese I owe them a beer. That stuff is pretty tasty too.

Next time you make a burger on the grill take two thinner beef patties (I hope you all handcraft your own burger patties) and put a thick slice of your favorite cheese in between them. Pat it together to seal it up a little and then slap in on the grill. Built-in cheese

I hope you all handcraft your own burger patties

I made a burger out of steak once. Tasted fantastic, ate it with a plain white roll. I don't normally eat burgers though - might have perhaps one a month, if that.
