I bought some to try and can’t eat it alone as is. Any ideas for other ways to use it?

If I edit a flair so I can add Red Leicester for myself will that change that flair for the people already using that flair? I don’t want to bugger up someone else’s carefully chosen representation so I thought I’d ask before doing anything

I’m in Canada and our cheese whiz is different from the US - but how is cheese whiz really all that different than cream cheese spread (for bagels etc).. and why is one demonized over the other?

We bought this block of raclette cheese from the supermarket on the holidays. And although it said BBD is on the 29th of Dec, I didn’t mind bc I remember reading a post here telling that as long as there is no pungent smell and no molds on the cheese, then it’s still perfectly fine. We also put it on the fridge since then.

I have been eating the cheese since by putting it on my bread. But I noticed today that after eating it, my breath would smell the cheese. I can’t describe the smell. I can’t decipher whether it’s a bad smell or a good smell. But eitherway I am concerned whether I’m being poisoned.

I did noticed a little tiny bit of molds on the edges but I just removed them. No big deal. Also I’m semi lactose intolerant. I don’t know how that is important to my question.

Anyway, should I still eat this cheese or throw it out?

I feel crazy, does anybody else feel this way?? I think it might only be when it’s heated up like on a pizza that I notice it but I swear when I eat too much blue cheese it starts tasting like an old banana! Someone agree with me 😭

I thought it was Brie but I'm not sure

Hey , I just bought some sliced havarti cheese from Aldi (in Germany), and i was instantly absolutely repulsed by the smell. It smelled like wet socks (and tasted like it too- I only managed to eat a tiny piece of it before spitting it out). Now I have had my experience with cheese that is just too aromatic or strong for my liking. But this was really bad. I remember LOVING dill havarti cheese when I ate it in the USA. So, I am wondering if this is normal or my cheese went bad? Im guessing the latter, but I was confused as i bought it today and its expiration date is in a month. as far as I can tell it was properly sealed and I did not find any mold or weird texture to it.

I have several allergies, but they are all related to plants and mold. The other day, I had a small cube of feta cheese, and I have never had this kind of cheese before. My friend asked what I thought of the taste, and I said, “It’s weird. It’s burning and tingly,” and she was very confused.

She told me that is not how it’s supposed to taste and took a cube for herself. She said it didn’t burn her mouth and asked if I was allergic to anything. I spit out the cheese, rinsed my mouth, and told her I have mold allergies. She said that could potentially be the issue, but after some short Googling, we found that feta cheese shouldn’t trigger any reaction to mold allergies.

Does anyone have any comments on this situation? We’re both curious

Seen so many posts here recently so thought I should give it a try . Damn it straight up just tastes like liquid mold. Genuinely, I drank my flatmates soya milk once and it tasted exactly the same , was curious about the taste so looked inside the carton and it's walls were covered in mold. I baked it with honey and thyme and had some nice bread to dip...but it ultimately went into the bin pronto, am i missing something.

As you can see on their website, what they call the "mozzarella" version now says smooth and creamy on the package. The nutrition facts and ingredients are different, notably vinegar was in the old version and is now gone. The texture and flavor is much worse IMO. I haven't been able to find the original version at the store anymore and Amazon says stock is low, so I'm worried they permanently changed the recipe.

I bought grated Parmesan like three days ago and just realized I never put it away. Would it still be OK to eat?

Hi,

I know nothing 🤣 I have a voucher to spend and want to make my own cheese from my goats’ milk in the future. I live in an arid area with nothing suitable as a cave.

Do I buy a wine fridge? If so, any specs I need to look for? Thank you very much.

I have a wheel of Tete de Moine that I will be serving at a lunch party. I have the cheese curler to make florets out of it. But I wonder how in advance do I need to take the cheese out of the fridge. I remember it’s hard to use the curler if the cheese is too cold. Thanks!

I am trying to remember the name of a cheese I had that was similar to this. Except there was a single layer of bleu in the middle.

Also, the exterior might not necessarily have been cheddar, but it definitely was anatto colored.

Friends, hello. Frankly speaking, I am not some kind of gourmet and I do not like the strong taste of cheese. I don't know much about cheeses. At one of the events I had a chance to try Swiss cheese (or Italian, but I'm not sure, honestly). This cheese tasted perfect: a perfect combination with salami (at least for me😅), it does not have a strong taste, and the aftertaste does not have a strong bitterness, everything is moderate. I do not know what kind of hard cheese it is, what brand it is. Or maybe it was some Italian parmesan? Or can someone just at least recommend brands of Italian and Swiss cheeses for beginners, like those that are simpler? I would be glad to hear from those who know about cheeses. Thank You

P.S I tried playing with AI, but I still didn't come to a conclusion.

Did I miss the pic of Kraft Colby Jack on cheese pic of the day?

i forgot i bought cheese and it's been out for like 4 days 😭 it's still sealed and everything. my apartment is usually fairly cold bc i dont use heat, but not like a fridge by any means. the temp in my area outside is usually like 20-30 F.

should i just cut my losses
