Gouda, Edam, Havarti, Swiss, love them. Alone, on sandwiches, with thinly sliced meats, in celery sticks, on eggs, with apple slices, doesn't matter...

Cheese rules!

Some cheeses are delicious. I don't remember the English name of the one I tasted in Pittsburgh, but it was gooooood. It was Danish with a certain herb. Don't know the herb name in English. I want a Norwegian translator on Apolyton. Not only the main languages.

I have Stilton cheese waiting for me above the Arctic circle. It's supposed to be good.

Also Jif Family Size peanutbutter is tasty. But cheese rules!

Try a few pieces of cheese with your morning coffee watching your favorite tv-show. It works wonders.

I was always under the impression that Cheddar was english (mainly seeing as you hardly see it on the "Continent").

Anyways cheese. I can live with it, I can live without it. I am fairly indifferent to it. I am not partial to blue cheeses, or most cheeses made from unpastuerised milk (i don't like the whole ammonia thing).

Cheddar is originally English, but the most popular cheddars now come from the United States, particularly Wisconsin and Vermont.

I guess you're refering to processed american cheese rather than cheeses produced in America (of which there are many excellent choices).

American Cheese is a specific kind of cheese, as opposed to all cheeses produced in American, of which there are tons of varieties. In fact, America has created one of the best cheese production industries in the world. I'd take a Vermont cheddar (Cabot! MMM) over any other variety.

I find American Cheese to be sorely inadequete as far as cheeses go. It is bland and has a consistency I don't particularly like. There are plenty of better sandwich cheeses out there.

To put it simply, I can't think of a single instance in which I would opt to use American cheese over some other variety which would have better flavor/consistency.

My favorite cheese is pecorino romano, which I always have around the house. My next favorate is Emmentaller, akak, Swiss cheese.

Corporate cheese is always a sad thing, but there is a new American cheese movement producing some European class cheeses. The bigest problem for cheese in the US is that either the milk must be pasturized before use (which kills enzymes and usefull bacteria as well as denatures the milk proteins) or if made from raw milk it must age at least 60 days. This means we can't get any good young raw milk cheeses in the US, such as brie or camembert (unless they're smuggled in).

My favorite cheese commercial isn't actually a cheese commerical but one for Commerce Bank ATMs, "What if everything in life were like an ATM . . . (cut to young man punching in code at fridge) . . . please deposit two dollars for cheese . . . But - it's - my - cheese." I go around saying "but it's my cheese" all the time (freak )

Tired of ads?

*Most* "American" cheese is a "processed cheese food" and is pretty bland. If you look carefully, you can find real "American" cheese, and it is not bad. But the best "American-made" cheese is cheddar (though I've had some excellent American-made "Swiss" cheese).

There goes burgeois Che again, showing off even more of his burgeois tastes! And prasing a commercial for Cheese while he is at it!

As for me, my favorite kind of Cheese is Munster for the most part, though on salad Blue Cheese and Feta are both very good.

You are a man of taste and discernment, sir, and not just for choosing to live in Pittsburgh. Muenster is a great cheese, though most US store-bought stuff is just bland. But the real deal -- sooooo creamy -- is subtle and fabulous.

And that goes double for havarti. Praise be to cheese!

Pittsburgh is known as boring. I have lived there...

But they have a wide variety of cheeses, but so does all of America I think. The best cheese I tasted there was Danish.

To the enemies of cheese I say : just go to Naples and ask for fresh mozzarella. IMHO there is only one type of cheese that tastes better, but that one is somewhat harder to find.
