Blood & Wine sounds bad ass - great name for some great dlc. Wine & Cheese is fantastic, and it’s a favorite for many people across the world. Blood & cheese… no, just no. ---

Blood and Cheese? That’s what it says on the brand of catfish bait I use. Works pretty good too. ---

If you’re talking about anything made from blood, like blood sausage, I am all in. Blood pudding as well. Blood tastes good, full of mineral-ey and iron-ey notes. I will drink it straight from the source if pushed as long as it isn’t coagulated. ---

Possibly too much wine, too little cheese in the OP. Blood & Cheese are characters from the Dance of Dragons prequel to a Song of Ice and fire. From Google, it’s appears the OP is maybe talking about Witcher 3 DLC…? ---

> [@Mangetout](#): > > I am sharing your perplexity. Explanation: he’s referring to the \*\*Blood and Wine \*\*DLC (“downloadable content”, the term used for added material available online) for the video game **Witcher 3.** It is indeed an excellent addition to an excellent game. It’s about vampires in a country very similar to the south of France. Hence the name. ---
