We have discussed pizza, steaks and other food type. We have not had cheese on the menu.

There are several kinds of cheeses ranging from firm to soft spreadable cheeses.

What type of cheese do you like most

I prefer the cheese is very mild in aroma and mild in flavor
it doens't matter if the Cheese is firm or soft.

Longhorn Cheddar. With a sandwich, on crackers, with French Bread, or straight.

Haven't seen any Longhorn locally of late, so I have to settle for Very Sharp Cheddar, also good.

Harvati.

Old Mommark.

Both are Danish cheese, and very close in taste, look and consistene to each other. I kill for both. Harvati is the slightly milder version. They remind of Tilsit in looks and taste, just much stronger, spicey. Mommark easily becomes over-ripe if stored for too long, also is slightly softer, a bit like some sliced buttercheese. I eat them pure. They are too good to compromise their taste with anything else, bread or whatever. Mostly I fail to ration the ammount I bought, and eat it all in one rush. I just cannot help myself.

Can't pick a favourite, but agree that King Island has some great cheeses.
Particularly the Roaring Forties blue, and the triple cream Brie.

Then I also love a good Stilton, Red Leicester, Havarti, Gouda (with cumin seed), a nice sharp vintage Cheddar (Watsonia do a nice one) and good old Hartze.

Cheese Slices would be on of my favourite TV series. Makes me sooooo hungry though.

I love blue cheese. Gorgonzola, too. Not a huge fan of semi-soft and spreadable cheeses like brie, but they can be good. Havarti is great, so is a good nutty pecorino romano or Asiago. Gruyere is a cheese of the gods...

Man, I guess I have a lot of favorites, eh?

I like most cheese, the notable exception being Stinking Bishop. Without doubt that is the worst cheese I've ever tasted.

Other cheese have their moments, they can't all be eaten at any time. Whilst not my overall favourite - Halloumi has to be up there, it's a cheese, and tastes like meat!!! :rock:

Whichever you choose, make sure you have nice Port to wash it down with.

Couldn't agree more. That nice, thick cabbagey smell - loverly!

My favourites are, as always, Gorgonzola Piccante, A Tallegio, a good, strong Stilton and a good farm house chedder, as strong as is possible. Recently, these favourites have been joined by Pecorino Romano (Drier and saltier than it's siccilian cousin I find,) Manchego and Mahon.

I could live off cheese. Well, cheese and bread. Well, cheese and bread and wine. Ooh, and a few olives. And some marinated anchovies. and a couple of slices of copa. And maybe some artichokes....and marinated peppers.....

I still consider good cheese, wine and bread to be the hallmaks of true civilisation and far truer test of such than any amount of art or literature. Bring on teh Brie! :yeah:

By very special do you mean "special"?
If so you are correct
And yes its that "cheese" which is so special it deserves its own category as its unfair to measure it against cheese.
