It seems that many of us share a fondness for cheese. Please share this passion with others.
I'll go first.
1) One of the few positive things about where I live is that there is an awesome cheese place just 5 miles from my house. They have really really good 6 year aged cheddar and the like. A nice tangy flavour, but not so bitter that it can't be enjoyed.
2) In Toronto, and those on the laefest got to expereince a bit of it at Global Cheese. Cheese from everywhere in the world. The price is determined by how chatty you are with the guy who cuts your cheese and how much you buy. Favs from there include a light flavoured blue cheese, snoked gouda and while not cheese halvah (sesame/pistachio paste that is dried - pure calories).
3) Mandels Kosher Cream Cheese. There is something about kosher cream cheese that is totally undescriable. The way that it is creamy and sticky, but not gummy is incredible.
On the cheese I dislike most, really goaty chevre or other goat cheeses. I can take a light feta, but there is something about the taste of goat that turns my stomach.
