The Most Important (and Divisive) GMG Poll Ever

Emmentaler Swiss.  Fell in love with the Swiss cheeses on my first trip to Europe.  Oh, and I'm very fond of Camembert.  Jarlsberg is good too, and smoked Gouda.

One of the best uses of gouda is trapping caraway seeds. Caraway seeds are evil, and I like to do my bit by masticating them into paste, which is easier when they are trapped in gouda. But I will also happily destroy them in bread, sauces, wherever they lurk.

I love blue, or bleu or Roquefort cheese in salads, or, more often, as a side to a salad so I can select the right amount yo go with each bite.  But I chose cheddar as my overall favorite because I use it for so many things.  As a topping for a cracker, along with a cheese spread, as a omelet ingredient, or on homemade cheeseburgers, or even as an addition to a boxed macaroni and cheese dinner.  I  hate brie.

Whoa!  Try some Irish cheddar.  (I know, that seems a bit odd, but trust me.)  ....

This is true! There is some great cheddar made in Ireland.

We also have a wonderful blue [my wife's favourite cheese]....
