cheese and nightmares

[Abitrary]

Does anyone else eat cheese on toast before bedtime, just so they can have some juicy nightmares?

You know, just to break up all the happy clappy dreams a bit?

Skrtel had a nightmare apparently.

As a teenager I used to eat a large chunk of cheese and have a swig of cough mixture just before going to bed, to help put me into a deeper slumber so I could get 'further' into my dreams.

Not exactly Aldous Huxley, though!

I recommend a few drops of clary sage oil on your pillow before bedtime. Especially after a few drinks.

Lived near a railway when I was a kid and had nightmares about trains all the time! Nothing to do with cheese though, just trains.

I detest cheese so the thought of eating it would probably give me a nightmare.

I love cheese and would eat it all day every day and have pleasant dreams of...eh.. more cheese..

Cheese-troubled dreams, eh? Reminds me of Little Nemo. Well, that might have been more to do with opium, but they don't sell that in our village shop. Which cheese produces the best class of nightmare?

I often try to but it doesn't actually work so i don't usually bother.

Surely you can't be old enough to remember Little Nemo! You look so much younger in your avatar.

I believe blue cheese has the best effect. Man.

Watch it, Chuffy!

Have you done experiments with the blue cheese, or is this conjecture? There's something about Camembert that promises particularly troubling nightmares, I suspect.

I had cheese sandwiches for supper only last evening. Sure enough, I had a nightmare in which I got up the next day and got soaked cycling to work through drab, grey streets.
