The very best cheddars, but not the crunchy ones.

Ossau Iraty +1
"Proper" Lancashire, not that acid crumbly stuff supermarkets sell.
Crottin de Chavignol
Tomme des Pyrenees
The Laughing Cow

Anyone else like Boursault? You can't get it over here, and it stinks so badly that it even penetrates airtight plastic tubs, so no-one will bring me any back from France.

Once found some in Sweden - the girl doing the bag checks at the airport almost passed out when she opened my rucksack after the lead-crystal candleholders I also had in there showed up as suspicious dark blobs on the scanner. Plus you can imagine the hum that spread throughout the aircraft en-route from the overhead bins.... I just feigned innocence and feasted like a king on delicious cheese when I got back home.

erotic cheese! I like your style!!

I suggest nibbling the rind. If you like it ... eat it!

Personally, I don't like stilton. It is blue and yucky.

I love Tilsitter - smells of sweaty feet. I first tried when working for the Holstein brewery in Hamburg.
