Drinking coffee, reading this forum.  Found this thread and had to go investigate the contents of the cheese drawer.  Breakfast is a slice of home made Multigrain bread topped by three different cheeses and broiled.  And it's all your fault.

I like a good smoked Gouda.

But seriously, we have love for Cheez-Whiz and cheese-in-a-can, but nothing for my guilty pleasure Velveeta?



Now that's what you put on a big fat greasy burger!

Cheddar.

With Swiss a close second.

Me too. 

Plus I'm half Italian.  Must have mozzarella,  provolone, parmesan, romano, asiago , etc. etc.  Preferably imported from Italy.  Domestic versions don't compare.

My goodness, I almost forgot! Camembert. As a teen, I developed a strong affinity for it. Seeking it out at better grocery stores everywhere and GLORY!!! sometimes finding on sale at discount prices. The question is, however. What do we do with the rind?

hah hah my friends and I used to go back and forth about that. Supposedly the learned consume the whole thing, rind and all (since it's not wax like other cheeses have) but some of more delicate sensibilities shun the rind (depriving themselves of a few extra bites per wedge). Eventually I fell into the former group and just went all out with the full consumption approach. But I don't criticize others who are diffident about the outer part. My God, it tastes like Heaven.

No one eats the rind. You don't also eat the wrapper on a Snickers do you?

The French do. In fact, I think it's illegal not to if you are in the Camembert region (just as it is illegal to leave more than 1 milliliter of French wine at the bottom of a glass between 2 PM and 2 AM in Paris).

So, to avoid prosecution one must eat the Camembert rind in France, unless you are a Muslim in France, in which case someone from the government will be paid to apologize and eat the rind for you.
