stinky cheese is the best cheese...I like all the varieties of
Swiss...my alltime favorite cheeses, though, are the Stiltons.

Stilton is the king of cheese. There are many fine cheeses, but none so
noble as Stilton. It's England's contribution to world cusine.

Did you know that Stilton is actually a cheddar? Blue cheddar, but
cheddar nonetheless.

..having a
difficult time finding a store down here that carries them...up north
the regular grocers have Stiltons in their cases, but not down here...

One of the many benefits of living in the civilived world, Katy.
There's probably no goat cheese or sheeps cheese either.

Ah, cheese - one of my three favorite things.

I prefer Swiss-made ementaller, but I can't really tell you why. Jarlsberg
is just a Norwegian version of ementaller, but far more popular, probably
because of better marketing.

It's winter now, so I can send you a 'care package,' if you want.

The original Stilton was a mistake of a serendipitous nature. Someone
forgot to turn the cheddar wheels, so I read.

Two of our local supermarkets carry such a wide variety of cheeses,
including some I've never encountered before, that I'd probably die of
coronary artery disease before sampling all of them.

We also noticed a paucity of some of the more esoteric grocery items while
visiting NC. But since New Yorkers are moving there en masse, it won't be
long before that situation is remedied.

Sounds delightful. Stilton makes a great additive cheese in Welsh rarebit.

Jarlsberg is a Norwegian cheese originally, but probably copied elsewhere
now.

Jarlsberg is a Norwegian approximation of the popular Swiss emmentaller,
which was around for a century or more before the Norse started making it.
However Jarlsberg is the number one import cheese in the USA today.

Walt,
Don't you live near me somewhere? I thought you were just south of the
Potomac on the coast...tell me where you get yours. Food Lion doesn't
carry it, or WallyWorld (heh...like they would carry anything like
that?) or Farm Fresh..I haven't tried Harris Teeters yet...

Can you get the Stilton with dried cranberries in it?
