Gouda -- love the smoky flavor.

I noticed cottage cheese isn't listed. It,s good with Lousiana Hot Sauce.LARGE curd, of course. Cream cheese on a REAL New York garlic and onion bagal! People in Michigan(At least in this neck of the woods) cannot make Bagals like a NYC Deli!!!

I've never been all that fond of cheese. I'll eat a Kraft slice here and there, but the only "real" cheese I will eat on occasion is Havarti. As for melted cheese, I can only stomach it on nachos and pizza. Everyone I know just loves melted cheese on everything, but I just can't stand it. Once, I had over 500 pounds of cheese fall on me, pushing me to the ground and twisting my leg. I was gimping around for weeks. After the "cheese incident" as my friends call it, I have even less appreciation for this particular diary product.

You had 500 pounds of cheese fall on you?

More details!

I wanna hear about getting squished by 500 pounds of cheese too!!! C'mon! Were all adults here!(If not emotionally,at least in physical years...)

LOL Ok, here it goes, but it ain't much.

A few years back I worked for a company that specialized in food delivery, where I would drop off food to restaurants in the middle of the night. Burger King was our biggest account, but we had others, including Papa Murphy's Pizza. They would get these big 50 lb boxes of cheese.

Well, one night I was helping another driver with his route and we were at one of these Papa Murphy's places. Since we drove around in a tractor/trailer big rig, all the food had to be loaded on handcarts and moved down a ramp from the trailer. Well, I loaded up about ten boxes of this cheese and made my way down to the bottom of the ramp. There I stopped to adjust the load and when I pulled back on the cart to go again (with the other guy pushing on it from the other side since it was so damn heavy I could not seem to get it pulled onto its wheels by myself), I pulled too hard (or he pushed too hard) and all that cheese just pushed me flat to the ground. Since my leg was still extended part way up the ramp, it just folded under me with a sickening twist. After that I had to leave that job and was gimping around for the better part of two months.

It's one of those days I will always remember because aside from that happening, I was rear-ended on my way to work that night and the next day was 9/11.

I voted for Havarti, but one of my favorites is not on the list. Being from Kentucky, we have native treat known as beer cheese. It is primarily used as a dip or spread, but I love the stuff. Anybody else ever tried it?
