Cheese Snob?

super crayon:

Yeah, it's called Cheez-Wiz. A cheese substance in a can that you spray.

Usually, the same folks that buy Cheez-Wiz are the same people that might buy shrimp cocktail in a jar with the twist-off top (the same folks that might serve pigs-in-a-blanket at a dinner party).


Hey....what's wrong with "pigs-in-a-blanket?" I love them and just because "Mrs. Bucket...pronounced Bou-quet' doesn't serve them at one of her candelight suppers, they're easy to make. :tongue:

it doesn't really "spray" it comes out more like caulk....in fact u can use it to plug leaks in ur bathroom tile, so don't dismiss this american ingenuity so quickly! :biggrin1:
 
How about a trip to NYC for cheese, then drive through wine country in Southern Ontario and up into Québec for more cheese?

How about a trip to NY for a Cheese and Wine, then off to Ontario for salad and main course and off to Quebec for desert and a night cap in Hawaii. If we plan it right it can all be in the same day!

Ha! I just flew from Ontario to the West Coast two days ago. That's possible in a day but Hawaii? Only if your day's 36 hours long.

Which it could be for that much excellent food and wine.
 
Answered this in another thread and thought I was alone in cheese fascination.

Favorites:
Aged 6-9 month organic cheddar.
Its more flaky, drier.

Pepper Jack on basil-homemade bread.

Goat cheese.
On salad, or with dill, onions, and garlic with crackers.
When I can get it, the Bouyguette variety or other raw, french goat cheeses.

Roquefort, Gorgonzola, or Stilton on salad.

Once in a while, Camembert on crackers, but the flavor gets to be a bit much.

Whole Foods has a decent selection.
I agree with willtom, American cheese is an atrocity...

Those so called " American cheeses" are really just a combination of chemicals and food coloring and DO NOT MERIT THE NAME "CHEESE". There are some excellent American cheddars that are available in Vermont.

I also enjoy AGED SWISS GRUYERE and RACLETTE as well as SAINT ANDRE TRIPLE CREME, especially with apples and pears as a dessert or in the morning with Brioche and Cafe Au Lait.

Québec-ian cheese, I hear they have good farmers' cheeses?

Gotta love those Québecker dairies. That province is definitely known for its cheese.
 
Cracker Barrel: Extra Sharp Cheddar - Yellow
Cabot's: Hunter's Sharp Cheddar
Cabot's: Bacon Cheddar
Kraft: American Singles - Yellow

Before you cheese snobs shove me into a trailer park for my pedestrian tastes I also love St. Andre's and a nice creamy Danish Havarti. As a matter of fact one of my fave evening snacks is a few slices of Danish Havarti, a couple slice of cheddar, some crackers, some Kalamata olives, some apple slices, and a glass of wine. Though these days due to medication requirements I usually substitute water or sprite for the chardonnay. :redface:

WillTom my goddess of a mother used to send me off to school with a can of spray cheese, Ritz crackers, an apple, and a can of Hawaiian Punch in my lunch box. :biggrin1: I was a picky eater back then so she just gave me what she new I would eat. :cool:
 
njqt: Your mother is becoming something of a diva around these parts.

Little does she know that she's an often-talked of persona on a large-dick site! (she sounds fabulous to me though and I automatically smile when you bring her up)
