Notes on Cheese

Cheese. That's right, you just read the word cheese. You can't really rave enough about cheese can you? I mean, it truly is delicious. From the creamy texture to the salty twang it leaves on your palate, cheese is probably the best thing to come from a cow besides other baby cows. I generalize too much though. You can't sum up all cheese into one sentence because it comes in so many varieties. You've got your stinky blue cheese, your crumbley fetas, and your sharp cheddars, and that's only a short list, leaving out less popular varieties as the double gloucester (which I might add is delicious on a turkey sandwich). There's a cheese for every tongue. Whatever flavor you prefer, they have a cheese for you! I mean really, have you ever met someone who said, "I hate cheese! It's gross!" I know that I haven't, and if I ever do, I will tell them that they being just plain silly. Saying you don't care for cheese is like saying you like to dance naked in the snow. It's ludicrous! (Not to be confused with the vulgar male rapper) There is no way you could not like cheese when it comes in so many sizes, shapes, colors, and smells. Even that overly processed, sorry excuse for a slice of cheese crap that kraft makes has its own delicious usefulness: Cheeseburgers. Really, there's no such thing as a "nasty" cheese.

Cheese also is so complimentary to other foods. Grilled cheese is a great example. Think about how simplistic a grilled cheese is: two pieces of bread, some butter, and CHEESE. Cheese is the crux of the sandwich too. Without the cheese a grilled cheese would be very hot toast.

CHEESEburgers.

CHEESE and crackers.

What's the second thing they ask you at Subway? Think hard. It's "What kind of CHEESE would you like?" I've never seen anyone say I'll pass on the cheese. They wouldn't because it's delicious.

Cheese is even good for dessert. Ricotta cheese mixtures taste delicious with berries.

CHEESEcake.

I feel bad for lactose intolerant people...just sayin'.
