    Something as simple as a big chunk of cheddar on thick white crusty bread with best butter can bring so much joy! Or a good brie on thick cut french stick and a few grapes. Or mozzarella with vine tomatoes and black olives. Before mfp that would be my weekend treat. Not so much now I'm calorie counting. Jesus now I want cheese.

    I'm a self confessed cheese *kitten*! Extra mature cheddar, brie, buffalo mozzarella are my favourites. I recently tried a strong cheddar with walnuts from a local farm shop it was amazing. Love cheese.

    That sounds delicious and dangerous!

    I love that Aldi often has imported cheeses that I would not be able to try because of expense if I found them anywhere else. Possibly the best thing I've tried that way was the Transyvanian Hard Cheese at Hallowe'en time.

    My Aldis has a pot of Apple and Horseradish cream cheese that was calling my name. I regret not getting it. But I did get a bottle of pear and gorgonzola dressing.

    My hubby wants to know where alll the colby and cheddar marble cheese went. I know nothing. :*

    Cheese-lovers rejoice - this thread is for you. If you're anything like me, you could talk about (and eat) cheese all day and never tire of it. So I dedicate this thread to all my cheese-loving friends to post and fantasize about cheese, because a life without cheese is no life at all.

    This is one of the most beautiful speeches I have ever read - or heard. *wipes tear*

    I have 300ish grams of gorgonzola cheese fries with green onion left for tonight. <3 I worked hard to up my activity yesterday and today so I may not lose, but won't gain anything and can eat all 600-700 grams of them (between last night and tonight). Worth every calorie!

    My dad's side of the family is Scandinavian and he always has a block of gjetost. I always use a dull steak knife to cut it so all I get is a couple of slivers. I could eat the block like an apple if I allowed myself.

    I love gietost on a piece of knekkebrod or Danish brown bread. I have to ration it as well. (My mother's family is Norwegian.)

    I don't suppose there'd be nearly as much support for a pickled herring thread.

    Also, my school-age kids complain if I get the 6-month New York sharp cheddar instead of the 9-month Vermont.

    I'm still a tyro at cheese-appreciation, but I'm willing to learn more.

    I've never had the opportunity to try it, but I'll be on the lookout for it.

    Well-aged cheddar (someone here mentioned Welsh cheddar, I love the stuff. At my local Trader Joe's they sell cheddar from grass-fed cows in New Zealand)
    Gouda, both smoked and not
    Manchego
    Mimolette
    Parmesan shavings on my salad (especially on arugula with balsamic). Whole Foods also has some sort of Parmesan-only wafers that are really tasty.
    Jack (either plain, pepper or garlic)
    Boursin (just had an omelet with chicken, Boursin, rosemary and sun-dried tomato bits - great stuff!)
    Soft goat cheese (either plain or with herbs)

    My husband (from the UK) thinks that Americans put cheese on everything. No idea how he got that impression. "Cheese ice cream, cheese coffee,..."
