whats every ones favourite bit of cheese

I only ever found one cheese I couldn't eat - that was Esrom from Denmark which was not even like sweaty feet but tasted like B.O. smells!!

Not very keen on cheeses with added 'bits' - worse ever must be with Christmas Pudding!

Best ever cheeses are associated with particular places and memories :-
Can still taste the Stracchino I had in Tuscany 30 years ago 
Travnik made in Bosnia is better than parmesan 
They used to make a wonderful bio-dynamic cheese at Botton village near whitby -isit still made?

i agree about the christma pud cheese it was awful but i do like to eat my Christmas cake with a slice of nice cheddar.
im so glad this post has gone as far as it has and the array of cheeses that people like just wonderful .

When I was growing up (many many years ago) there used to be a local Nottinghamshire cream cheese called Colwick cheese which was really really nice on crusty bread with sliced fresh tomatoes. Unfortunatly it is no longer made. Never been able to find one that comes close to that - or is it me just looking back with rose coloured spectacles? 

Not the EEC to blame this time?

Occasionally, in the past, locally farm-made cheeses did seem to disappear.... for various reasons. 

Nothing to do with cheese but I loved Colemans "French" mustard - now no longer available as EEC (I think) declared that it could not be called "French" as it was made in UK. So far I have found nothing to match it even remotely. I bought the last two glass-jars I could lay my hands on locally and that was it - gone! 

Has anyone else noticed a cheese they once enjoyed vanishing? 

carnt emagine life without cheese think it would be a bit on the bland side ,

Isn't the Colman's Dijon mustard the same thing....just a different name to make the EEC happy? It's what I use

Completely different in my expert (?) opinion!!  Coleman's French Mustard was a decidedly English version and nothing like the French Diijon. (I don't dislike FD but it is not the same honestly!!  )

It was darker, milder and lovely - distinct and had a slight vinegar-twist as well as its own individual uses.... fantastic on pork sandwiches or woth salad.... It is a thing of the past.

This alone would almost have won my vote to leave the EEC!!

Have I just missed something  Colemans Diijon?? not French Diijon?
It's on the top of my list for Saturday shopping - Wow if it is the same as Coleman's French Mustard life might be complete again!!
