American parmesan is usually fine, tbh. You just have to buy it in a block and grate it yourself instead of getting the pre-grated trash.

There’s this cheese called gjetost. It’s brown, has a mild salty-sweetness, and tastes like caramel

 https://www.papillesetpupilles.fr/2017/01/boulette-davesnes.html/ Boulette D'Avesnes-Nord smells like rancid donkey rear end and tastes like heaven. Unfortunately, it is not legal to import it into the USA due to raw milk in its making. I recommend you get on a plane right now, go eat some, and then never again buy an American cheese because you've just ruined them forever.  Translated article posted:It is best to eat it alone or after tasting the other sweeter cheeses on the board because its flavor is very marked. I also advise you to open the window. To give actual useful content, though: There are lots of dairies in Wisconsin that produce absolute top-notch cheeses; they just don't distribute to wide-spread national retailers, or aren't legally allowed to sell them across state borders. If you live in the midwest and fancy a cheesy vacation, visit the Mars Cheese Castle across the WI border and grab a bunch of touristy deliciousness. Alternatively, check out Trader Joe's or a Wegmans in your area, since they tend to carry some decent poo poo. Sundae fucked around with this message at 03:43 on Aug 23, 2020 |

if you like parmigiano reggiano (the King Of Cheeses), try some aged gouda its quite firm and sharp unlike young gouda, and has an amazing nutty flavour

i've had parmigiano reggiano chunks that you dip in a reduced balsamic vinegar, so its kinda like a sauce. It tastes crazy and also really good.

i originally thought casu marzu was just a gross cheese, but eating it can actually infect you with worms.

Why is this so good and why does america suck at makin it? in the US you can call your cheese whatever you want, but in italy there are specific geographic, process and ingredient standards that foods have to meet

Funky See Funky Do posted:Try different types of feta if you like salty cheeses. My favorite is Bulgarian. If your experience with feta is the dry crumbly kinda bland type you got in a cheap greek salad then you're missing out. One of my local grocery stores carries French sheep feta, and for some reason it's less than half the cost of the other fetas. I tried it out because I like feta and it was so drat cheap, and it's really good. Have bought it a lot.

Manchego is good but if you dont generally like sheep (or goat is similar) cheese...maybe dont.

If theres a place that sells a lot of cheese a good idea is to go there and get like some minimum $2-3 of a few, a small slice of each and just chill and find out/enjoy it. Used to do that, take them to the local pub and just have a time. Only way sometimes youre gonna taste a super expensive cheese Jeffrey Dahmer fucked around with this message at 10:43 on Aug 23, 2020 |

My favorite cheese is  Also raw milk is involved. Luckily I live in Germany, so I can pay 28€ for one, eat myself sick cause I'm lactose intolerant and then die.

The best cheeses are ewe's milk (looking at you, Manchego, Ossau-Iraty, Roquefort, Pecorino) but I had a student who commuted all the way from Pisa every week and he bought me a block of Parmigiano as a gift and I've kept half of it in the freezer to grate every now and then.
