Pretty good, especially since I'm working finally! It's only Arby's but at least it's a job.

Announcement: The best cheese in the world.

Brie du meau

....you think you've had brie? Oh, I assure friends, you have not. Not if you've tried this. The flavour is rich, dense, creamy, slightly woody taste, mildly like asparagus. One little nibble fills your whole mouth with this exotic, intense flavour. The aroma alone is intoxicating. I'm salivating just thinking about it.

Here's the thing...most authentic French cheeses are unpasteurized...which is apparently illegal in the States. Bizarre. This cheese is actually documented in the book Heat, where the narrator/chef actually smuggles a bunch of unpasteurized cheeses from France to the US, and brazenly eats some on the plane. I love it!

American cheese blows. I won't eat it.

I love dill Havarti! Smoked cheeses are also very tasty .

There's this one cheese that's called Boursin, it's more like a spread, but that's another one I love!

It doesn't smell bad, frankly it has a subtile but rich smell, soft but with character. I don't like brie in general but this one's exquisite.

Poor guys in the states. Dutch farmercheeses are unbeatable. The older the better. You can bury me alive in it. I ate cheese for 40 years on a daily base. I will do that the next 40 years too. As long as there's cheese there's life.
Cheez, I've eaten so much cheese that you can call me a cheesehead. I'm glad I never started a cheesestore. I would have eaten it. My dog is a cheese hua hua, My sport Tai Cheese, hell, even my grandad died in the same planecrash as Richeese Valens.

I actually worked in the cheesedepartment of a supermarket long ago, my God I smelled awful each night I came home But I love cheese... hm, which ones haven't been mentioned yet?
Roquefort, danish blue? Dutch cheese faves: Maaslander, Cantenaar. Another fave is a Belgian cheese called Passendale. Nice mild taste. Parmigiano...
fresh cheeses: hüttenkäse, tastes great in a spinach pie... ah yum... I still have to decide what I'm having for dinner tonight, I guess it'll be something cheesy!

"Oh, that's just the cheese in my suitcase".
