Now just a sec, I've had some mighty fine times thanks to the sparkling sh*t. True, you can say that about most fermented drinks and twg, so never mind.


Here is real cheese fact: John Heywood said, 'The moon is made of green cheese.'

Think of the resources used to disprove that one.

If you don't like 'American' cheese, why don't you go live in Russia??

The cheese wears me.
I am the cheese.
That cheese factor.

Gimme a pizza, and I'm in gastro-intestinal Heaven.

I’m not a big fan of Russian cheese either.

I’m really an Italian cheese guy. You can't beat the Italian cheeses.

Parmesan cheese is made from an enzyme collected from the inside of a cow’s stomach. Officially it is referred to as rennet, but my little cousin calls it cow vomit, and since I told her, has abstained from parmesan on her pasta, even though I don’t think the Kraft Parmesan that she eats actually contains animal rennet. Only the really good stuff contains the cow vomit.





Oh, he's so full of manure, that man! We could lay him in the dirt and grow another one just like him.

hmmm. Yeah. I’m not sure that’s a cheese fact; I think it’s just a cheese myth. And I have a friend from Amsterdam who told me that the Dutch use the nickname Janke for John, sort of like the same thing as saying “Johnny” in English. And John was a common name of many Dutch in colonial New England. So “yankee” is probably just an English bastardization of the Dutch name for Johnny. But yours is good too.

Also the Dutch word for cheese is actually Kaas, as far as I know.

And Quese looks like the Spanish word for Cream Cheese.

And the state you’re thinking of is Connecticut.

The info came to me from a penpal in Minnesota and i was qouting it off the top of my head so apologies for mistakes.
B.T.W. - I thought Kaas was Flemish, though Flemish and Dutch are similar.

As for American cheese, is'nt that a contradiction in terms? Is there such a thing as naturaly made cheese in America?

Oh, and Chedder is realy more of a style rather than a specific product nowadays. If you realy want a cheese to knock your socks off try Stinking Bishop.

Yeah. Most kinds of cheese are made in the US. But there is authentic American cheese as well.

Monterey Jack, Wisconsin Brick and Colby and Colby Jack are all authentic American cheese, invented right here in the states. There are lots of regional cheese in certain states. Wisconsin, in particular, has a lot of small regional cheeses.
