I made a grilled cheese with their smoked cheddar. Oh God, that was good.

Just unwrapped a wedge of Maytag blue I’d been saving for 3 years. It’s aged well but I’m not sure how much further it could be pushed.

Your wife and daughter, I assume? 😕 NOMB, really.

I tried some 12-year-old cheddar not long ago. It just kind of sank to the bottom, and I burped that fingernail-sized slice of grit for hours afterwards, so I don’t think I’ll have it again.

When all else fails, there’s this.

As a joke this really falls flat. Insinuations of incest, especially just completely out of the blue, aren’t appropriate.

Before we go any further, I’d just like to point out how disturbing it is that you equate eating a block of cheese with some sort of bachelor paradise. :dubious:

Ooh, thanks for the reminder to go to bed early.

Farmer’s Market around the (Wisconsin) State Capitol tomorrow morning… where you get offered at least forty toothpicks with little chunks on them… Bandaged Cheddar, Cave-Cured Cheddar, 5, 10, 15-Year Cheddar, Cheese Curds, and my favorite… “Ordinary Cheddar”.  
Forgot about the dairy family who brings a huge grill that they keep full of browned cubes. I hope the Honeycrisp Apples are in season, they’ll pair well.  
Oh, and Three-Animal Cheddar (Cow/Goat/Sheep, very creamy). Sorry to make anyone jealous…

I’m sorry if anyone interpreted it that way. I just pictured a family getting in the hot tub on a chilly autumn evening. Nothing inappropriate implied from my end.
