Title: price of cheese
Post by: loulou on May 21, 2008, 11:09:29 pm

What is your favourite cheese and do you think it's expensive?

My favourite cheese is very low fat cream cheese from Tesco. It was only 46p a packet but then it shot up to 64p, and is now a shocking 81p a matter of weeks later. I'm outraged.

I've been buying that one too Smurfy and am similarly outraged!  I love loads of different cheeses but admit to being very partial to good old Cathedral City, especially when it's on BOGOF.

I like Camembert, Lancashire and double Gloucester Gloucester.  The price is OK

I've been getting through a lot of smegma recently. It must be the hot weather that makes it sweat.
I'm partial to a bit of Austrian Smoked too. (Oooh, missus!)

I like Bavarian smoked cheese and roulle(think that's the correct spelling).

Oh man I love cheese! I wish I'd seen this one earlier but I've been in China for two weeks (working unfortunately).

Favourite soft cheese is Coeur de Lion's 'Pié d'Angloys'. Nothing like as poncey as it sounds, you can get it "at all good supermarkets", inexpensive... and deee-licious! Cambozola is very special too.

Favourite hard cheese either Lincolnshire Poacher if I'm flush, or Cathedral City if I'm not (as usual).

I have been told this is a lovely cheese that has a flavour similar to butter.
I might try it when I see it next!

Ooh yes, definitely! But 67% fat!

...but then I guess so am I.

I don't fancy the oatmeal coating.

I like Cheshire and blue Stilton.  I don't like Edam (tasteless rubber) or Danish blue.

Is Edam really cheese?

Apparently.

I think it's more akin to soap.

Title: Re: price of cheese
Post by: paulham on June 02, 2008, 07:50:31 pm

I've never washed with anything approaching the smell of Edam!

I can just picture you lying in the bath with your rubber duck, loofa and a big chunk of edam.

It's not the smell so much as the texture.

I love edam.

Title: Re: price of cheese
Post by: paulham on June 03, 2008, 06:02:50 pm

If you rearrange edam it makes made!
It also makes dame and mead.
This is fascinating, isn't it?
I know loads about cheese.

Favourite anagrams, anyone? (not necessarily cheese-based)

This anagram conversation reminds me of when Richard Stilgoe was on Countdown, he always made anagrams of the contestants' names. I wonder whatever happened to him, he's never on TV these days. ???

Well...........I heard he drag Clitoris of Cashier girl Dot. A Hostile cigar dr had to intervene. This dr was a bit of a Scarlet rigid ho and a Steroid rich gal. Richard ogle its, you see.  (he couldn't pronounce the "t").
