Wisconsin's cheese pwns you all!! :lol:

No, seriously, in case you non-American types didn't already know -- Wisconsin is the cow/dairy/cheese capital of the United States, no matter how much Californians will tell you otherwise. ;)

So, of course, I'm a big cheese fan -- Swiss is my favorite. There's nothing quite like hoppin' on down to the local Culver's to have a double-cheeseburger with Swiss cheese, with fried cheese curds.... :)

All 15 people in Vermont are now very pissed at you.
 
I've never even heard of, much less tried, most of those cheeses you guys mentioned up there. I usually stick to cheddar on my burgers and whatever cheese they put on pizza. That stuff is pretty good by itself, too. But the only cheese I'm used to eating plain is American cheese, which I noticed hasn't been anyone's favorite. Is it just the cheap way to go?

Yeah, pretty much, and it doesn't have much of a flavor, while lots of the cheese mentioned have a stronger taste to them. Of course not everyone wants storng taste/smell to their cheese.

You should try some pepper jack or swiss on a burger 👍 It really adds something ;)
 
Okay serious post.

I generally have mild Tesco cheddar in my sandwiches and occasionly have some spicy mexicana. That stuff is lovely.

I'm from SoCal, and 15 miles from thousands of cows, and the cheese here stinks. I don't touch it. The only good cheese is overpriced, and not any better than what Tillamook makes. So, why buy it?

But the best mozzarella I ever had is made right here. But, it goes for $21 a pound! See, overpriced...
 
I just now figured out the thread title.

Since this thread was started, I thought it meant that this forum has a cheese thread. As in, this particular form is not without a cheese thread.

No no. The thread title means that this isn't a proper forum without a cheese thread. Right?

Man that took forever to sink in.

Very Gouda, daan.

Sorry, was that joke too cheesy for you? (Touring Mars, it's catching!)
 
Urge to kill rising....

All the cheeses you guys listed are really good so I'll leave it at that.
 
Parmigiano Reggiano. Those two words are the purveyors of 24 month old happiness.

I love cheese too. But Babybel tastes like plastic to me.:yuck:

Same here. I like philidelphia or however you spell it, and this smoked stuff that comes in a tube looking like a sausage.

You need some crackers though. I reccommend tuc. Or ritz, i haven't had those in ages...
 
Cheddar, Mozzarella, Havarti (Especially with butter in most sandwiches = creamy). I don't eat alot of cheese by itself, but it's sooo good in alot of dishes.
(Has anyone here seen the Cheese commercials in Canada? "Can't get your kids to leave home?? Stop cooking with cheese!!!")


Alright..
Who cut the cheese?

*Ducks behind desk chair*
 
Sorry. I'm surprised you smelled it, my farts usually smell like roses.

Bocconcini rules. :)

Emmental, jarlsberg, goat cheese and blue cheese too (in recipes for the latter, though)
 
A nice sharp cheddar is my personal favorite. Mozzarella, ricotta, and romano cheeses are awesome as well (I love Italian food). The one kind of cheese I am scared to touch is French cheese (except for brie). Lets just say I had a bad experience. I thought nobody sane would eat something that tastes like feet and sweaty gym socks, but apparently the French love it.
 
I love all cheese (brie possibly my fav), especially 80s movies.

Also tiger cheese is really good...


Oh, I had that orange crap that Americans put on everything (can't get it in most Australian supermarkets - I looked!) at Melbourne's Hard Rock Cafe... That **** is so processed I wouldn't be surprised if it was a petroleum by-product! But it tastes damn awesome melted on nachos, I don't care if I get a coronary later on in life!

I really need help from a yank - what is that orange crap called?
 
@ James: Velveeta? Microwave some of that stuff in a bowl and mix in some salsa, and you have the greatest dip for tortilla chips known to man.

Yeah I was suprised to see so much of that orange stuff when I was in the US in supermarkets, I don't mind it, can't find it here anywhere. Although I think I have seen it here somewhere before.
 
you talkin about cheez whiz?

Kraft Cheez Whiz is sold in Canada. That stuff is great - probably 1 chemical short of being toxic, but I love it anyways. It tastes so good on crackers.

It's kind of odd though.... to me, it doesnt replicate the taste of any single type of cheese in particular [that I know of]....

Hmmm, I know this orange stuff comes in slices (I've seen it in American movies when they're making lunch), not as a spreadable in jars...

Someone told me it was called "Chucky Cheese", but I have no way of tasting it to know if its the same or not...

Also, Valveeta eh? I couldn't know for sure unless I taste some! I hope its the same thing - thanks HondaRacer and Boundary Layer for helping... I now have something to look out for if I see it. :)

Yeah I always remembered it in slices, we would get it for sandwiches.
 
The square slices of "cheese" (it's so processed that I refuse to refer to it as real cheese :lol: ) are just called "American Cheese" (I don't think there's any other name for it), and can be found on most fast-food burgers, including McDonald's.

Chuck E. Cheese's is the name of a restaurant chain that caters to children. They serve pizza, have arcade games for the children to go bonkers on, and often host birthday parties. Chuck E. Cheese is also the name of the mouse mascot for the chain. Put his name into Google images and you'll see. ;)

Velveeta is similar to what you're looking for, but is primarily used for Macaroni and Cheese and miscellaneous cheesy dishes.

I have a feeling you're just looking for ordinary nacho cheese. ;)
 
Kraft Singles?

Ate a whole lot of these and cheez whiz as a kid, for what we simply called "grilled cheese" (toased cheese sandwich, basically) or with vegetables...

I'm not keen on eating the grey paste stuff now though, unless I'm eating nachos.
