Food and Drink : Are You a Cheese Lover?

Postby cmoneyspinner » 09 Jun 2017, 15:36

I'm not sure if there is any style or form of cheese that doesn't taste good to me. Have heard people say they don't like the taste of goat cheese. Maybe if they ate it in the form of a cheesecake they'd change their mind. :D

Definitely never ate a piece of cheesecake that I didn't like! :) <3

Yeah, I love cheese the most and its one of the best ingredient I would say as I always crave for more cheese when I order Pizza and Sandwich. Even though it has lots of fat it is simply irresistible sometimes. Yummy. :D

Most of bakery shops in Malaysia do not use goat cheese. Here, the cheesecakes are either Parmesan cheese or those cheap cheese ingredients. You are lucky to have tasted goat cheese. I wish i could take a bite from that picture!

I enjoy cheese too. I like most varieties. I rarely pass up the cheese section at the grocery store without finding something.

I have seen some cheesecake recipes that get a little carried away. Some flavors are good, but cheesecake is just fine on its own without too many embellishments, if you ask me. :P

While not a Big Cheese Lover, I do like cheese.

My wife is full Italian so wine, cheese, and crackers are a handy treat about anytime.

Last week for our 45th Wedding Anniversary, I made her a Lemon/Cherry Cheesecake with a graham cracker crust.

I am a big cheese lover and love most goat cheese, although I'm not sure that I'd enjoy a cheesecake made from goat cheese (I'm assuming it uses chevre?), as it has a pretty distinctive flavor. I like more savory uses for it, even though I've had chevre with fruit before.

I love cheese and butter. I love all kind of food. I know the importance of food in life and we will not know when it will be food scarcity.

Yes I am a cheese lover. I love foods with cheese but I eat in moderation since it can ruin my appetite. Once I eat food that has overload of cheese, I feel sleepy and I cannot eat anymore food. However, I still prefer food as I love Italian foods.

OMG I love cheese, various types of cheese. I love soft cheese, cream cheese and regular cheese; I just LOVE the taste of cheese. However, I too can't imagine goat cheese on a cheesecake because it has such a distinct and powerful taste. I don't like lemon flavoured food, so even though I do like goat cheese, the combination would not work for me at all. Plus I'm not a fan of cheesecake, and I'm far from being a picky eater LOL

Appreciate your comments. Just a boring bio tidit about myself that I'm sharing. I grew up on welfare, so “gov't cheese” does not count as real cheese. Although it did make good grilled cheese sandwiches.

My adventures in real cheese-tasting goes all the way back to the 70s during my university days. As a student my financial situation was nonexistent. Even though I had a part time job through the college work-study program, most of the time I had no money for shopping. But I did have enough to catch the bus to the local shopping mall and go window shopping. That was my idea of fun. :)

At the mall there was a cheese shop that laid out samples. I could not afford to buy any of the cheeses, but the samples were free! Loved it! Good quality cheese in the USA is not exactly a cheap product. But these days, at my local grocery store they also give out free samples. The goat cheese I tasted at the store is delicious and savory. That's why I was surprised to see a recipe for a cheesecake made with goat cheese.

I love cheese and cheesecake! <3

You're right! That stuff was just a step above Velveeta, which is practically plastic.

My cheese tasting experiences came from moving across the country and working at Trader Joe's, and seeing all the new and exotic things that people were buying. Every paycheck, I'd buy a new cheese to try.

I have always loved cheese. I would even eat it on its own. Though I don't eat it as much nowadays because it's quite expensive.

I like cheese but only mature. I really don't enjoy Edam, that stuff with the red skin, it just seems tasteless to me, almost like rubber. I love cream cheese, especially Philadelphia, and buy the assorted cheese portions to go in my granddaughter's sandwich box or to eat as a snack during the day.

* * I know the description sounds horrible. But yes I would try it. That town or city in Italy, if I'm not mistaken, is known for good cheese.

* * That price is what stops me from really enjoying cheese too.

Thanks for sharing, cmoneyspinner :) I have to say cheese is something that grew on me over the years. Growing up, having a Scandanavian step-dad, we had a lot of the stuff; stinky, expensive cheese, expensive cheap and mid-range, we had it all. I wasn't really a fan until I got older. Now I love it but can't afford the really expensive cheese. But I also don't settle for rubbish like processed cheese LOL.

I love mozzarella, I made an home made last time and I must say that it was an awesome experience. I also love goat cheese and the usual cow cheese :D

I love all types of cheese and I am lucky because Portuguese cheese is pretty good. Particularly I like this Serra da Estrela Cheese which is made from sheep's milk. There is also São Jorge cheese, very different from the Serra da Estrela's Cheese because this one is made in Azores and is made from raw cow’s milk. São Jorge is a robust, aged cheese ripened for between three and seven months before being sold in the market.
