kaini Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 after fred's various stilton threads (i think the last was about his toenail or something) I went out and promised myself that I'd return with some fucking stilton cheese. anyway long story short it was $25 for a tiny amount of cheese so I couldn't do it. lolwut i can get a fucking decent lump of stilton for EUR5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest iep Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 srsly. 8 euro buys me a kilo of young gouda, and 5 euro a kilo of mozzarella. both lowest quality obviously (the mozzarella being rubbery curd). i'd live off cheese and bread in the inevitable event of apocalypse. ET you might just be on to something though... have you managed to uncover any other hints as to exactly WHY they made your cheese so expensive ..what could their motives be??

Guest iep Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 $40 a pound jesus, that's about the same price i'd pay for the cow itself if it were Wagyu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All cause we have that american cheese stuff as our delegate around the world whole foods is ok but you really have to look up a cheese shop in your city. it'll make whole foods seem like they're slanging kraft singles and powdered parmesan. americanized cheese is indeed embarassing. it's like europeanized hip hop. but the good stuff is here, and there are plenty of people who like the good stuff. cheese travels well.

baph Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Seriously. And there are of course great artisan cheeses made in America, too. I'd be willing to bet the Rogue Creamery stuff mentioned earlier is pretty delicious, but there's a whole lot more where that came from. Ragging on American cheeses (not "American Cheese") is like ragging on American beers-- it absolutely doesn't hold up if you're willing to look beyond the mega-marketed, industrialized shit. Anyone else think "cheese" is a fucking gross sounding word? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chax Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 cottage cheese is totally the best as it is actually the healthiest cheese for you to eat and contains a lot of protein i eat a ton of it definitely try to limit my intake of other less healthy cheeses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easterlingman Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 last year we went to Tillamook on the coast and saw the cheese factory in action... it was just like this: it's probably expensive because of the culturing process. and because they need a Rabbi to run the factory and make sure everything is kosher. this isn't the same rabbi but he's got a better look: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
