Worst cheese ever?

Monterey Jack is a no-account cheese, as are other US cheeses ‘enhanced’ with bits of chilli and other such fripperies. A decent cheese stands alone, requiring no novelty additions.*

With a few exceptions (White Stilton with Apricots, Cotswold, etc.) novelty cheese is the preserve of the scoundrel as they try to perk up a bland nondescript product with fruit - like trying to polish a turd
 
Cottage cheese
Novelty cheese
Norwegian brown cheese

Not a fan of the more boring English cheeses... Lancashire, Wensleydale etc.

Not counting American cheese products as cheese.
 
Never really got into Red Leicester tbh. Over here any of that factory rubbery sliced stuff in supermarkets like ‘cheddar’ , flamenco, Gouda . Except Baby Bel which I’ll munch on every now and again.
 
Pasteurisation damages the flavour as well. One of my favourite cheeses is unpasteurised Roquefort. Proper smelly French cheese. :cool:
 
I didn't rate Red Leicester until I tried some of the aged stuff, like Red Fox, which is delicious.

Most hard cheese is better aged. Gouda, for instance, is bland when young but bursting with flavour when aged, with those fantastic crystals of pure cheesy goodness in it.
I bought some aged Gouda from a Dutch shop over here in Portugal. It was like good cheddar on steroids , also got some with cumin in it, all cut from big wheels of Gouda.

It's fantastic stuff. I first tried it in Holland. You can only get it here from specialist places and it's phenomenally expensive. I sometimes treat myself to a thin slither.
 
I love all cheeses, even the shit ones like Edam or Dairylee triangles. Don't like the cheese with cranberries they do at Christmas. Think that's about it, and that's cos of the non-cheese element. I bet even the maggot stuff is lovely. Cheese just can't help itself. Some cheeses are better than others but all of them are made of cheese. :cool:
Same mate. I’d give up meat in a heartbeat but you take cheese over my dead body.
