Cheeses for Christmas

[securespark]

My all time favourite is a decent Stilton.

The black-packed crunchy cheddar at Lidl is damn good.

Like the gooey French cheeses too.

Oh sod it. I like all cheeses!

Which are your faves?

Crumbly Wensleydale......maybe with ginger or apricot. Yum!

Love cheese, don't like the added bits, Morrisons are doing a cheeseboard on a slate this xmas, handy if there are gales over the festive season

Valencay

 

[ReganAndCarter]

Goat's. Especially warmed.

Nice bit of roquettfort, white stilton with cranberries, +1 for goats... Oh sod it I'm with secures here.. all cheese . Gone off port though, off the menu this year. Oh try some epoisse.. pretty smelly and very nice!

A lot of women have a preference to Helmetdale.

 

[motorbiking]

goat, stilton, even a bit of baked Camembert. But Mozeralla and cottage are probably the best (health wise).

If Gail's coming over, cheese and roof tiles would be the last thing on my mind!

You gotta be joking about mozzarella it's 20% fat of which over 50% of that is saturated fat. Most definitely not good for you.

 

[Doggit]

No, he's right. Cheddar and stilton are 35% fat, so Mozzarellas better; cottage cheese is about 10%, but it's not real cheese.

I'd normally go for a good stilton, but St Agur is a nice alternative. But if you got to start adding apricots etc, then sorry, but it's a poofy cheese with pretensions. No offence meant, but the fruit and nuts are an accompaniment, not in with it.

And the ports got to be a vintage one, decanted the day before.

I think I saw that on special the other day.

Was that next to the Fanny batter ?

The irony of this, is that one of the "likes" is from Motman
