Many , many thanks for the cheese website. For me this is food porn.

I'm absolutely addicted to cheese. I have no sweet tooth at all - you can leave chocolates out around me for months, but watch out if there's cheese anywhere near me. I have to limit the amount I buy because it goes so quickly.

Sorry, to previous threaders, but I think French cheese is the best. The range and depth is breathtaking. My life would be a great deal poorer without the thrill of digging a knife into ripe, stinky camembert. Or the first taste of a sliver of creamy, ponky roquefort. We have a wonderful mouth-watering cheese shop just five minutes walk from where I live.

But this cheese shop also sells beautiful British cheese, in forms I don't remember in Britain. Original aged cheddar from cheddar which crumbles like a block of parmesan. And wonderful aged (poachers) caerphilly which may now rank as the best British cheese I have ever tasted. My girlfriend also loves Sage Derbyshire.

Here in Canada we also get remarkable aged Canadian cheddar.

And in fact almost all countries in Europe have some remarkable cheeses - Denmark, Belgium, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Italy to name a few. I would find it hard to imagine the cheese world without aged gouda or danish blues.

But as for American cheese, well.......it's all very well calling the French "cheese eating surrender monkeys" but at least their cheese can't be seen from space! Or come in a spray canister!

Lee,

Trader Joes is also an excellent source of French cheeses, as well as other European cheeses.

This is a brilliant cheese shop that sells online.
Shipping knocks the price up a little but look at their cheap prices!!!! eek eek

I love the French cheese called Cantal, Stilton and Wensleydale, Gromit. American cheese is very waxy & overprocessed and does not have great flavour IMO.
I will try it all. In fact writing about that cheese made me pay an overdue visit to the cheese shop where I bought some surrender monkey camembert, some surrender monkey roquefort and two types of surrender monkey goats cheese.

I'm $50 poorer though.
Mmmmmmmmm........I just fancy a nice bit of crumbly farmhouse Lancashire! Might have to place an order. grin
