Hello everyone, my name is Sarah and I am a cheesaholic... I love lots of varieties of cheese. I make my lasagna with ricotta salata (so much better than the stuff in the tubs) but mix it with cream cheese so it still has a soft creaming texture. My favorite grocery store recently carrying ricotta salata. I was so sad... so now I am faced with the decision of driving much farther to find the ricotta salata or rethink my recipe. I feel like using the tubs of ricotta will make my lasagna not worth the effort (having had the good stuff). However, I am excited about the possibility of subbing fresh grated asiago for the ricotta salata.
Ok so long post, but let the cheese fantasies begin...1 -
I'm definitely a cheese addict. I love it. I have cut down a bit I could eat a pound a day. I try to limit it a bit more now. I used to buy it and eat it all in one or two days. Now I walk away and leave some for another day. But it's my favorite thing
A pound a day = 16 oz = 16 servings = approx 1,900-2,000 calories. SO basically you could eat a pound of cheese a day and still lose weight. Nice.1 -
I am eating raw aged Maasdammer cheese as I type this. Amaaaaazing 0

The most evil and amazing tasting thing: manicotti with alfredo sauce instead if marinara. So much cheese. So many calories. My mom used to order it at Italian restaurants. She is better at not indulging these days. But, man, a bite of that was so, so glorious.1

I love any and all cheese, except cottage cheese (which I refuse to accept is cheese) and mild cheddar (I don't understand the point of it).
For my birthday, we go to a local restaurant and I have an entire order of saganaki to myself.
My favourite cheese is Black Bomber extra-aged cheddar from Snowdonia. It's in black wax and looks like a hockey puck. I would eat the entire thing in one sitting if I let myself. I actually moan when I eat it - it's embarrassing.
So, I had to Google that and now I must have it immediately.0 -
Ima cheese a holic. But I've been following the keto diet for quite a few weeks, and I douse my food in it, it keeps me full!
Feta, provolone havarti..0 -
Cypress Grove "Truffle Tremor." So good.2

mild cheddar: why?4

Yes! I love cheese and crackers. It is one of my top three food combination favorites.
I am like a little girl because I do not prefer the more gourmet or sophisticated options.
I love original wheat thins with original Kraft American cheese slices.
The combination is high is protein, calcium, and fiber.
It is very filling.
I always have alot of bottled water but sometimes wash it all down with an ice cold diet 7 up. It is what I will be having later on today actually!
I used to buy the blocks of cheese because they are much less processed but I ended up switching to the easier way. They way we Americans love! Hehehe.0 -
If you are open to something atypical Smoked Gouda by boar's Head melted on mission tortilla chips was excellent. Even cold is an option.1

My absolute favourite grilled cheese sandwiches: good quality smoked gouda on light rye bread from the bakery.2 -

Trader Joe's has a light feta which tastes like the real deal. It's only 40 cal/ounce compared to 110 an ounce for most cheeses.0 -
You can grate a lot of hard cheese to come up to an ounce, especially if you use something like a microplane to get fluffy ground cheese. An ounce of grated parmigiano reggiano has a lot more cheesy flavor than an ounce of supermarket cheddar for the same calories.
I keep two or three hard cheeses on hand like parmesan, romano, aged gouda, a hard asiago, manchego, iberico, etc. They are more expensive per pound than some other cheeses but go a long way.1 -
I like cheese - in the single serve packages like this:

Tillamook cheese! We don't get that where I live in Canada so whenever we go into the States (Alaska) I bring back a block of their extra-aged cheddar. And on a trip down the Oregon coast, we visited the Tillamook cheese factory. It was HEAVEN.0 -

It's kinda tacky of me, but I like to grate a big walloping block of parmesan with the rotary grater attachment on my stand mixer, then put the tightly-covered container of it in the freezer for easy use in cooking later.
At cooking time, put container on scale, zero, scoop out desired amount, read negative grams, log it.0 -
Oh gosh this is so me, I can't have it in the house, I'll eat the whole bag in one sitting (or whatever form it comes in) it's the only thing I truly cannot say no to, cheese is the best tasting thing on the planet according to my taste buds, and I can't eat it in moderation.1

i will never give up cheese. i'll give up anything else, but never cheese.2

Aged gouda with truffles. Love.0

Ashley here, lover of all cheese except that of the cottage variety- nothing makes me salivate more than the thought of a cheese ball covered in almond slices with a triscuit in hand for scooping! Except actually eating it!
