@sarahredhaira are you from UK? I haven't heard of any of the cheeses you described except Camembert. So interesting.0

Yes I'm in the UK. Sounds like I need to visit wherever you are from to discover new types of cheese! Doubt that I'll ever find one as good as Blacksticks Blue though! :-D0

I'm from NH and love visiting Vermont to go to the Cabot cheese factory and get free samples! I think my whole family uses cheese on pretty much everything. However, when I go to my fiance's family's house, they rarely even have cheese, and his parents are from New York and Mass, but live in NH. We have a whole drawer for cheese in my fridge.0 -
Cabot makes that triple sharp cheese once a year "the big e special" and it's my absolute favorite. When my daughter was about 22 months we went and she wanted it. They warned me that it was really sharp and I assured them. She turned and signed to me that she wanted more (my family is deaf). Now that she's 8 she still loves sharp cheeses and strong cheeses like blue, goat, and feta.0

Ooh..I've never been to Vermont, but sounds like it would be worth visiting the Cabot cheese factory if I ever make it there. I haven't heard of 'the big e special', though...is it only available at the factory?0 -
This is where it is nice to be low carb. Cheese is not a condiment but rather a staple to be eaten at most meals.0

My new favorite is Provel, a blend of cheddar, swiss, and provolone. It doesn't taste like any of them, melts very well. Put on a homemade pizza and you're in St. Louis.0

I'm from Wisconsin and live 8 miles from a cheese factory. I don't think there is a cheese they make that I don't like. The fresh butter and ice cream are a must as well!
I am not that close to a factory, but I have access to a bunch of good local cheese. One good thing about Wisconsin, we keep all the good stuff for ourselves. I love it when I get to my Mom's, I can load up on Carr Valley cheeses. They have a great sheep's milk one.0 -
I love smoked gouda. I eat it with strawberries.0

I've seen that brand sold around here. I haven't picked any of it up, though. Sounds like it might be time for me to do that. All I'd need after that is a Cardinals game!0 -

Ooh, me, too! Never tried it with strawberries, though. That sounds delightful!0 -
Minimize it, and when you do eat it be sure it's low-fat/no-fat.0

I totally love cheese. I think I could literally live off of cheese, fruit, water crackers/bread, and wine. What else is there? My favorite is a cave aged gruyere. Otherwise I love hard cheese, soft cheese, aged and fresh, cow and sheep. Not to mention a fig spread. Oh cheese, how I love you!0

It's only available at the big e - a yearly fair in MA. So freakin good!0
