    I am a cheeseaholic! Loving the fact that on a low carb high fat diet for diabetes I can smack on it, make a sauce of it or even base a whole meal on it. Soft, hard,blue, strong or mild I love them all. Apart from cottage I have never thought it actually merits the name of cheese.

    I looove cheese. I eat less now, but still incorporate a little bit on salads and whatnot almost everyday. In my town we also have a cheese and charcuterie shop that has small batch cheeses from all over the country which is just dangerous lol.

    In the fridge at the moment...
    Feta, brie, mature cheddar, Stinking Bishop, pecorino romano, parmesan, goats cheese with honey. Gorgonzola finished tonight in pasta with pear and walnuts.

    Stinking Bishop. Oh man, I want to try that so bad.

    So little time, so many cheeses to eat!

    Special faves: Humboldt Fog, and the feta from a local cheesemaker who sells at the farmers markets (it's perfect - texture, flavor, salt level, etc.). They also make a camembert-style cheese, and I once happened to buy one at just-perfect ripeness. So delicious! Somehow, I managed not to eat the whole cheese in one sitting - kind of a miracle.

    It's a rare day when I don't eat at least a little cheese.

    My favorite is the baby Swiss with the big bubble holes in it.

    I love cheese, it's one of my favorite foods. I could live off cheese and nuts and be happy.

    Cheese, nuts, dark chocolate, grilled chicken/shrimp/steak, steamed vegetables and a glass of wine. Set for life.

    Agreed

    Swiss is probably my all-time fave. If I buy a block of it, it will be gone in a day and a half or less, so I don't buy it anymore.

    I'm low carb so 1/2 a block of cheese is a nice meal for me.

    My husband recalls that his grandfather would eat a block of cheese and a fried onion for breakfast. He was a coal miner so he needed the calories.

    Cheese is the reason why I jumped into the keto lifestyle. I want to lose weight, but I don't want to have to give up cheese for that. Now I'm losing weight and having my danablu, too.

    Cheese being helpful in meeting macros is definitely a plus for low carbing, but I ate cheese throughout my weight loss and was nowhere near keto, so I'd stress that no one has to give up cheese simply to lose weight,

    Very true. Cheese can fit into any diet/lifestyle.
