Cheddar is better!

Oh man, all cheese! But brie if I HAVE to pick!!
I am in love with Brie
A young Comte or an aged Mimolette…
Saint Nectaire all the way.
I LOVE CHEESE. One time when I was visiting the catskills, I bought a whole wheel of Camembert. It was so soft it was like fondue. That was my favorite cheese/experience ever. I probably sound weird.
There is this cow farm near Woodstock NY, somewhere in the Catskills, they make the best Camembert in the world! When you cut into the wheel even a little bit, the inside oooozes out like hot fondue. It tastes so creamy and delicious!
Haha! We wrote about the same thing! Cuz its so good
I own a shirt that says “I heart Muenster”

I love fresh Mozzarella! You can cook so many things with it, and it tastes amazing with some fresh tomato and olive oil, or all by itself!

This is a hard question as I am a cheese addict. My favorite is mozzarella!
A nice extra sharp cheddar is always good!

The best choice here is Mozzarella but I really love Parmesan: the more aged the better!
White stilton with apricots!
My fav is fresh mozzarella, yummm!
I’ll take the Les Frères any day!
I really love mozzarella, but I think Asiago is just as good and great on sandwiches.
funny, i was just telling someone that in theory, or “on paper” i’d love to be vegan but the one thing i can’t seem to give up is cheese. glorious cheese. dairy’s gift to my tummy. maybe it’s all that time, 9 years, i lived in Milwaukee. it’s a cheese state of course. however, one cheese seems to heal all ills for me, body and soul, and that is BRIE. wonderful, gooey, mushy, only-slightly-stinky BRIE…it’s fatty, perfect texture makes me giddy and begs fora good cracker in hand. the other thing i love about brie is that it’s great on a grilled sandwich. i do it like a grilled cheese but with good textured grainy bread, then grill it like a panini with nothing but brie and sliced apples. trust me, ti’s a “food orgasm” as i call it. so BRIE it is for me. my favorite cheese. BRIE BRIE, BRIE’S THE CHOICE FOR ME! Haha, I rhymed!
Fresh mozzarella!
All of the cheeses in the gift box are ones near and dear to my heart. My absolute favorite cheese, though, is probably Prima Donna Aged Gouda. Mmmmmm.
String cheese is great because you can eat it on the go but Manchego is the best!
It’s a tie between Brie and ricotta cheese. ::flips coin:
Ricotta it is!
Feta!
Asiago with a good chianti
Swiss cheese (on pastrami)

I love all cheese, but I would have to say brie. I can put away a disgusting amount.
Mozzarella! Yummm!

I love all cheese but I can probably survive solely on manchego and brie, especially when it’s paired with Malbec jelly or quince paste.
Provolone, especially on a fresh organic kaiser roll.
My favorite cheese is Humboldt Fog.
Extra Sharp Cheddar and Parmigiano Reggiano.
Today for lunch I had the most delicious panini…lobster topped with a wonderful melted brie . A decadent duo!
