So what are your favorite cheeses?

Mine:

I think if a doctor said I had to give up cheese or die within months, I'd tell him "fuck you," order a couple thousand bucks or so worth of cheeses from all over the world, and treat everyone to the greatest cheese party ever held. And I'd keep re-ordering new cheeses until either they revoked my Amex card or I died from a cheese overdose, whichever came first.

I only recall one cheese I didn't like (Testun al Barolo -- ironically, at 30 bucks a pound, maybe the most expensive cheese I've ever bought). Anyway, here's today's top 5.

5. Big chunk of Velveeta melted on a grilled burger.
4. Aged gouda. With the sparkles in it. Far different from regular gouda.
3. Fresh cheese curds.
2. A really nice blue cheese on crusty bread. Stilton is my favorite blue, but it doesnt taste as good here in the states as it does in the UK....probably some effect of regulation; imported brie sucks too.)
1. Extra extra extra sharp cheddar. If you can cut a slice less than a 3/4" think, it isn't old enough. Gotta be chunky, not slicey. 5 years aging or more.

Fuck. Now I gotta log on to iGourmet and spend some money I don't have.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

When I was in Germany, I made a tortelloni dish with gorgonzola fresh from Italy (more mold than milk) and shredded Emmentaler. Coupled with some decent (read: cheap) red wine, it was an orgasmic experience.

Someone shut that cultured dick up, eh? WTF was he saying? lol

Anyway, As I was somewhat 'raised' in WI, I'm partial to dill flavored cheese curds. Otherwise, just plain ol' sharp cheddar (fresh from a local cheese factory, not a name brand you get at your local supermarket).

Gruyere - Just fantastic if you're a fan of swiss cheese.
Manchego - Great for appetizers with wine
Gouda - Makes the best grilled cheese sandwiches. Gouda + prosciutto + jam = unbelievable.
Sharp cheddar - Who doesn't like it?

Squeaky cheese curds are awesome too.

Most of Iowa, alas.

(said in regard to "sharp" cheddar that was closer to mild than it was to medium.)

packerfanoutwest (11h) : 49ers are underdogs at Packers, ending streak of 36 straight games as favorites
Zero2Cool (18h) : 49ers might be down their QB, DL, TE and LT?
packerfanoutwest (22-Nov) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL
Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?
Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”
beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout
beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL
Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.
Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.
beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?
beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked
Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.
packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?
beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?
Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league
packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.
beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."
Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme
Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block
Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline
beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)
