Just dropping in to say: mascarpone.
That is all.2 -
Oh yes. Now that I like swiss cheese I think that I like every sort of cheese that is made. Except for the bland rubbery stuff.
Some favorites
French goat milk feta
Cabot habanero cheddar
Boar's Head Chipotle Gouda
Brie
Any Really Sharp Cheddar
Mild homemade paneer & mexican crumbling cheese
But really - the only ones I don't like are commercial mild cheddars and monterey jack (with one exception - Publix store brand Monterey Jack is buttery creamy delicious) and "Colby" because those are, in my experience, rubbery and tasteless.0 -
If you are a fan of bleu cheese you CANNOT get better than Point Reyes. YUMMMMMM!!!!!!1

Goats' cheese, goats' cheese, going in my mouth, when days are hot, when days are cold, goats' cheese in my moooouth.
Christmas is a-coming which means CHEEEEESE. Anyone familiar with the Boxtrolls film? It's an actual depiction of me, please see below.

You're my cheese sister. Earlier in the thread I said I basically liked all cheese but blander cheeses are much less interesting. The ones you listed as favorites are high on my list too, especially the pepper ones.0 -
Humboldt Fog with a little green chile jelly is just... there are no words.0

I love cheese SO MUCH and I don't eat much of it these days
Gruyere is my favorite, followed extremely closely by Parmesean

My love for cheese is pretty serious. I've been known to eat Parmesan right out of the container.1

I want to try Halloumi!0

Well I grew up in France, so... gimme all the cheese.
This stuff was my favorite.
Gosh I miss good cheap cheese.2 -
I love cheese too. Hey I tried a Lay's potato chip smoky gouda flavor, it's good0
-
I just introduced hubby, who likes cheddar & bleu to Huntsman which is Gloucester & Stilton molded together. He was in love.0

I actually tried a cheese recently I was not a fan of - Red Dragon. I don't want to say it was bad, but it had little flexibility. With the mustard included, it was good for sandwiches, good for stand-alone, but not much else (like omelettes).0
-
Pretty much anything but goat cheese (nasty nasty stuff) is good with me!0
-
Chèvre - pretty much any flavor variation. One of the most recent ones I had was a honey chèvre from Trader Joe's.
Smoked Gruyère - I use it in grilled cheese sandwiches and a macaroni and cheese that's to die for.
Cranberry Wensleydale - on crackers as a snack.
Yancey's Fancy Steakhouse Onion Aged Cheddar Cheese - I have to be very careful with this stuff. So good. I can cook with it, but it usually ends up in my mouth, naked, in pieces. LOL
I think I need to stop there. I'm starting to drool and the cats are giving me a funny look.1 -

woah woah woah... HOLD UP. How dare you discriminate towards goat cheese! Goat cheese is my favorite! Grilled raspberry, goat cheese and chocolate panini. That is all.
Goat cheese, smoked salmon, and beets salad. NOM.1 -
there is absolutely NOTHING that cheese does not make better!!!0

No shout-outs for Blue Stilton? I like blue cheeses, but I prefer them creamy and I draw the line at Roquefort. That stuff will take your head off!
Also Camembert, and Raclette. And obviously goat's cheese.
The beauty of a strong cheese is that, energy-dense though it is, you won't have too much. Unlike a nice block of mature cheddar, which I could snaffle in a heartbeat.1 -

What is this! Omg sounds devine0 -
Nokkelost on pumpernickel is my weakness, but it's almost impossible to find anymore. Leyden is close, but just not the same.0

ALL THE CHEESES! Seriously, I haven't met a cheese I didn't like (and that includes Dairylea triangles). Just need to find a nice crumbly Wensleydale to go with my Christmas cake.
A couple of years ago I went with my hubby to a cheese-tasting event. The server came round with a plate of cheese and said "this will serve six people". Nuh-uh, I could have eaten the entire thing on my own. Do you know how difficult it was for me not to grab the plate and run away with it?3 -

Probably my favourite (that I don't buy very often because it's so creamy and delicious and hard to keep to a reasonable portion size!) is Mersey Valley Cheddar from Tasmania. Not sure if that's available outside Australia though. Or really any bitey cheddar like the Margaret River Cheese Factory ones.
Day to day I'm more likely to eat swiss slices (yum!) or Bega light/tasty slices - which are pretty good for reduced fat cheese, mostly because it's easier to keep an eye on how much I'm eating. Oh and laughing cow is a regular snack of mine, though that's not really proper cheese.
We had Margaret River smoked at lunch time today on our camping trip. Had it a few times before. It's amazing!
