1. Colby for eating straight, dipped in spicy mustard.

Extra-sharp cheddar for casseroles and apple pie. Provolone for sandwiches. Bleu for steaks and wings. Baked brie and cinnamon sauce for dessert.

:9

[blue_onyx]

38. I like Colby

I particularly like the Kroger brand colby.

[Muttocracy]

61. I haven't had Colby in decades but my parents loved Kroger Colby

no Krogers up here.

[Oceansaway]

2. Velveeta....n/t...

[whistler162]

75. Of course... it is the only cheese!

seriously it is the best.

[flvegan]

3. Teese.

Ha! First vegan in.

[Xipe Totec]

5. Tofu counts!

[Muttocracy]

62. any tips on fake cheese? is there a fake cheese fanpage?

I've recently become lactose intolerant (or perhaps weaned!). Giving up meat was easy but I loved cheese so I'm trying to fill a hole in my diet. Years ago I tried fake cheeses but I found them all gross and super-salty.

[Xipe Totec]

4. Chihuahua, Oaxaca, Fresco,

Asadero, Trenza, Cotija, Manchego...

In order of preference (only the ones not mentioned in the quiz, which I also like).

[shanti]

9. Everyone of them but limburger.

Have you ever smelled that crap? :scared:

[KitchenWitch]

10. On your list, sharp cheddar

Overall, a nice nutty swiss.

[Mike 03]

15. Swiss is amazing. You are making me salivate. Haven't had Swiss cheese in years. NT

[yellowdogintexas]

11. other: colby jack also known as marble cheese. It is a great all around

cheese for multiple purposes and great on crackers.

I use extra sharp cheddar to make Welsh Rarebit though

[blogslut]

12. Roquefort and/or Bleu

I dig the tanginess. I like all kinds of cheese, really.

I've made some simple vinegar cheeses that were tasty. I like using a pear-infused balsamic vinegar. Delicate but yummy!

[surrealAmerican]

13. From your list, the extra-sharp cheddar, ...

... but parmigiana reggiano is pretty wonderful stuff.

[Mike 03]

14. On your list, I had to vote for Extra Sharp Cheddar, but

my absolute favorites are:

Some cheese from the UK that has green onions in it. Ten years ago I could buy it in Los Angeles for five bucks for five ounces, but the last time I saw it, it was twenty five dollars for five ounces. Incredible. Needless to say, I have not bought it in years.

Secondly, there is Gouda. That was my father's favorite cheese, and he had good taste when it came to cheese.

[Vektor]

21. Ah, Cotswold. Delicious!

I love that, and extra sharp cheddar.

[Mike 03]

24. Cotswold, THANK YOU. Exactly. I never ever would have remembered that

without your help.

It is incredible. I'm so SAD that it has become so expensive.

[Vektor]

27. It's not cheap, but I have been able to get pretty good deals at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's.

Do you have either of those near your house? I got a rather huge wedge of it for $9.95 at Whole Foods. Can't remember the weight of it, but it was generous.

[HopeHoops]

69. I get it for about $8/lb at our farmers market - really strong flavor! Great with merlot

[mwooldri]

74. I'm not a real cheese fan but my wife on the other hand...

... she'll go for the extra sharp cheddar.

Extra treat: real English cheddar. From Cheddar would be real nice too, and yes I've been there. the Irish cheddar isn't too bad, and the Canadian's OK.

but if you tell me that Kraft makes good cheddar cheese then I'll tell you that they must spell cheese K-R-A-P.

Mark.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

16. I love Cheddar but I have to watch the sodium.

Swiss is lower so I usually opt for that where I can.

[Orangepeel]

17. muenster!

I'm not sure how to spell it, but I love to eat it, especially when it's melted and greasy.

[Kali]

18. YES.

[hippywife]

19. I love just about all cheeses

except the individually wrapped processed cheese food. But I picked gorgonzola. Yum! :9

[Pierre.Suave]

20. Out of your options, Swiss or a good, aged, Sharp Cheddar.

But my current favorite is Iberico.

[TK421]

22. Yes...I voted Brie, because it is so incredibly, indescribably awesome

with Rosemary and olive oil Triscuits, I dare anyone to object to this analysis....

Go on.....I fucking DARE YOU TO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HopeHoops]

70. My 13 year old daughter likes brie with mint jelly. I love that flavor Triscuit and HAVE done brie!

[XemaSab]

23. Parmesan

Fresh, expensive blocks of the stuff. Eaten straight. :9

[TommyO]

78. A good Parmagiano is best served straight up!

I always make sure I have some in the fridge, along with a decent sharp cheddar and some fresh buffalo mozzarella.

[Left Is Write]

25. That depends on what I'm having the cheese with.

Sandwich? I go for Swiss or Provolone. Cheeseburger? Good ol' American or sharp Cheddar or pepper jack.

Eating with crackers? Sharp Cheddar.

[petronius]

26. Morbier, gouda, Abbaye de Belloc, sharp cheddar, anything on a pizza

:9

[shanti]

28. Other - I like Panela the best

it's mexican cheese, yum!

[tigereye]

30. muenster

[Xipe Totec]

32. Chihuahua is a variation of Muenster

made by the Mennonite colonies in Chihuahua, Mexico.

:hi:

[tigereye]

34. that's very cool!

Hi Xipe! You are the fun fact-meister!

[Xipe Totec]

48. Just call me Cliffie

[tigereye]

76. I think you are way sharper than he...

[Texasgal]

31. No option for Feta?

I looooooooove Feta!

[Xipe Totec]

33. Yea, what's up with that?!

I love feta cheese.

[HopeHoops]

71. What's up with that is that there are only ten options!

[blaze]

35. Gambozola!!!

I have to buy small wedges though... I'm lucky if it lasts for two days!

And I recently discovered Raclette!! Best grilled cheese sandwich ever! :)

But I agree with lots of the already posted choices too....

I love me cheese!!

[Liberal Veteran]

36. Havarti or Dubliner.

[LeftyMom]

37. Teese.

1. It's yummy.

2. Nobody dies to make it.

3. It doesn't make me sick. I'm really allergic to dairy, so I have to stick with cheeses that aren't made on the same equipment as cheeses with dairy ingredients to prevent cross-contamination.

4. I find it cool to buy things that are made by people I know.

[lukasahero]

39. Where's the "Goat" option? :(

Vermont Sharp Cheddar will do if there's no Goat Cheese.

[grace0418]

53. Seriously, goat cheese is some kind of cheese miracle.

If I had to slowly go vegan by eliminating one non-vegan item at a time, I think goat cheese would be the last item I would eliminate. There are plenty of wonderful substitutes for meat, but I haven't tried a soy cheese yet that comes close.

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

40. Epoisses

A lovely cheese from Burgundy. The rind is washed with marc de Bourgogne, the lethal local brandy made from wine leftovers and as far as i can tell, lighter fluid. Incredibly luscious and creamy smeared on a slice of a fresh baguette and accompanied with a fine Sauternes. Even though it has a boggling stench of very rank feet, it tastes divine.

[AwakeAtLast]

42. I voted Pepper Jack (Jalepeno Jack)

but I also love Havarti Dill and a really well made Colby-Jack! :9

[Sebastian Doyle]

59. Jalapeno Jack is for wusses

Upgrade to Habanero Jack! :evilgrin:

[AwakeAtLast]

64. Oohhh, I've had that too!

I lump them all together I guess - it's very good, too!

:9

[hobbit709]

73. Yummy

[kentauros]

43. Stilton!

Chef! - Illegal Cheese

"That's what cheese is - gone off milk with bugs and mold!"

:rofl:

[kentauros]

51. Actually, Stilton is quite good.

Although, as I recall someone asking some months ago, how do you tell when the blue cheeses go bad?

When they turn into this!

Milk & Cheese: Dairy Products Gone Bad!

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

56. Milk and Cheese RULE!

Milk (playing guitar): "If had a hammer....."

Cheese: Wait, Milk, I HAVE a hammer!!

Chaos ensues

Several panels later, Milk is reading a newspaper, the headline of which is "Hammer Maniac Goes on Rampage"

[kentauros]

58. That's Milk & Cheese!

:rofl:

and this all leads to....

Reid Fleming, World's Toughest Milkman

44. Wensleydale

No, I'm sorry, that's my name: Mr. Wensleydale.

(dedicated to you, Oedi!) :hi:

[kentauros]

45. How about some edam then?

Shopper 13

:D

[3.14158675309]

46. No.

Case Ness?

No.

Smoked Austrian?

No.

Japanese Sage Darby?

No, sir.

You...do *have* some cheese, don't you?

Of course, sir. It's a cheese shop, sir. We've got--

No no... don't tell me. I'm keen to guess.

:P

[kentauros]

49. I was wondering when someone would bring up

The Cheese Sketch

[3.14158675309]

81. Sorry I was late!

But there was trouble at mill;-)

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

66. You and babylonbsister need to get a room!

Cheers!

[grace0418]

55. Fancy a bit of Wensleydale Grommit?

:)

[CatholicEdHead]

47. Pepper Jack of course

and it has to be from Wisconsin or Minnesota.

[Muttocracy]

63. I still remember the first time I saw the giant CHEESE sign on I-94 in Wisconsin

I knew I wasn't on the east coast any more! :D

[GOPisEvil]

50. This question is cuisine and application specific.

:)

[jberryhill]

54. Aye /nt

[grace0418]

52. Goat cheese is pure heaven IMHO, plus Double Goucester, Mahon, Dubliner, gouda,

Saint Andre, and so many more.

l heart cheese. Can you tell?

Of the ones you listed in your poll, though, sharp cheddar is my favorite.

[noamnety]

57. Fresh mozarella

not the hard kind, the soft fresh stuff.

[Muttocracy]

60. non-orange cheddar but

I've recently become lactose intolerant so I guess I'm on the way to being a vegan.

[SoxFan]

65. Mayor Mc

[Lucian]

67. Ewwwwwwww.

Cheese is an abomination to the food world. :puke:

[timtom]

68. Love extra sharp cheddar

but brie is a favorite treat.

Anyone remember "brie sandwiches" in Twin Peaks?

[hobbit709]

72. Any of the good blues

Stilton, Gorgonzola, Roquefort

[dropkickpa]

77. Impossible! Impossible I say!

I love cheese and have many cheese moods. I can't pick just one, or even just one from your list. I dislike swiss, but other than that I'm pretty much a cheese whore.

[Deep13]

79. "cheeze food"

Who knew that cheeze gets hungry?

[av8rdave]

80. Port Salut
