> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Scylla \* > \*\*The great thing about brie is that anytime you want some you can just put a booger in your mouth. \*\* I have to disagree with you here, ol’ pal, even though I am an avid armchair follower of your epicurean adventuring…the booger has a certain richness and melting texture that not even the finest brie can hope to match. Pass the crackers. ---

MMmmmmm… Brie. Not the funky American Brie, but good smelly French Brie is definitely the ticket here. Brie baked in puff pastry with a onion, garlic and red wine compote. Brie broiled on a portobello mushroom. Brie on a toasted baguette smeared with unsalted butter. Heck, just about any kind of cheese can make my day. I’m quite fond of sheep and goat milk cheeses–I absolutely adore fresh chevre. > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Ukulele Ike \* > \*\*Unfortunately, all the Camembert you can get in America is made from pasteurized milk. > – Uke, the Stinky Cheese Man \*\* [sub]pssst… hey, Uke…[/sub] If you’re seriously looking for raw milk cheeses, contact the Cheese Store of Beverly Hills: [http://www.cheesestorebh.com](http://www.cheesestorebh.com) They are the only place that I know of that has raw milk cheese (they have been going under the gov’t radar for years and I don’t know how much longer they’ll be keeping them in stock). You can order from them, and they will ship overnight anywhere in the US. ---

Beverly Hills? We ain’t got no Beverly Hills. We don’t need no Beverly Hills. I don’t have to show you any stinking Beverly Hills. You is talking to a NEW YORKER, my son. You want stinky cheese? You want ILLEGAL stinky cheese? C’mere…I can get you raw milk cheese on the Upper East Side, I can get you raw milk cheese on Bleecker Street, I can get you raw milk cheese in Brooklyn. I can get you cheese smuggled into this country in people’s SOCKS and UNDERPANTS. Pass the crackers. ---

Count me in for Brie, 20+ years now - and I’m only 31. True story: 8th grade French class, taught by honest-to-God annoyingly petite Frenchwoman Annie Solomon. She goes to the trouble of buying and bringing to class a wheel of the good stuff, to open the minds and palates of 30-odd whitebread New Jersey schoolkids. Most of them shared the sentiments of the OP here. Me, however, I had a mom who got me started on the cheeses of the world at an early age. I delighted gobbled up the servings of 4 or 5 timid-minded classmates around me. MMMmmmm, Brie. - Dave ---

Representing a cheese lover (me) and a not-really cheese lover (my wife), we both love the stuff. It’s always part of our appetizer plate when we have company over, topped with dried cranberries and pine nuts. Yum. 🙂 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-want-to-know-who-here-at-the-sdmb-likes-brie/68188.md?page=2)
