I can't believe I've never posted in here b4...cheese is my all time favorite. That said, I'm an equal opportunity cheese eater. 7/29/2010 8:20:30 AM |

My girlfriend's relative rented a beach house in Emerald Isle. He's not a snob but he thinks he is when it comes to cheese and wine (in reality he just has the money to buy everything he's never eaten, and the appetite to want to eat everything). So we went out and bought about ~250 worth of cheese that will get the family through maybe 4-5 days of eating, gesh. It's pretty tough to get gourmet cheese in Carteret County but luckily I know a few gourmet provisions stores and some top-notch bakeries.
He's real big into sheepsmilk cheese right now, but only the really rare shit I had no chance of finding. He likes goatsmilk cheese a lot too but again he likes the rarer kinds.
We've gotten some great cheeses so far this week, new ones that I'd never tried and some good versions of my staple cheeses (Fontina, Gruyere, Jarlsberg, Monchego, Sage Cheddar). Along with good biscuits and crackers (though honestly wheat thins, triscuits, and "gourmet pretzel chips" are my favorite) and rare wine that only rich bastards like this guy can afford, it makes this beach vacation about a million times more awesome.
Thank god for rich Jewish in-laws. 7/29/2010 12:52:19 PM |

humboldt fog, brie, sharp cheddar, and gruyere are the ones I keep around. But I also keep some of the "processed cheese product" kraft slices in the fridge, so I'm really not that picky 8/22/2010 4:38:25 AM |

The gf and I picked up some fresh mozzarella at the Carrboro farmers' market yesterday and had cheese+tomatoes+basil+balsamic vinegar for dinner.
So far, my all-time favorite is roasted haloumi cheese+dates+honey. 5/22/2011 6:40:29 PM |

I got to try some guiness-laced cheddar last summer, and haven't been able to find it nearby since. Not even at Murray's I'd love to get my hands on this stuff

*SIGH*
i was hoping to have left over apricot cheese today
went to my grandmother's boyfriend's bday last night and my dad brought some cheese. had to leave before my dad for another party. so wasn't there to SAVE THE CHEESE. i guess they just threw it away?! because it was out on a cheese platter for a few hours?! i called about it today to see if he had the leftovers. but they were trashed. FUUUUUUUUUUUUU. 5/23/2011 12:40:09 AM |

Trader Joe's has a marbled cheddar/porter cheese that would probably be similar to the Guinness one. 7/11/2011 10:47:23 AM |

wanted a snack what did i see in the fridge? muenster cheese slices and cheddar cheese cubes
wrap muenster cheese around cheddar cheese for a cheese burrito
THEN take pretzels and wrap muenster cheese slices around them
OR place cheese cube on top of pretzel and eat
OR place cheese cube on top of pretzel, microwave for 15 seconds, then eat 7/21/2011 10:05:21 PM |

hahaha
i have those big hard sourdough pretzels. they are delicious microwaved with a cheese cube for 15 seconds
but i thought of something better
NEXT TIME i am going to buy the frozen hot soft pretzels that you microwave
and melt cheese ALLLLLL over them. that is so fat. and it is going to be GLORIOUS! 7/21/2011 10:43:00 PM |
