    There are very few dishes that cannot be improved with the addition of cheese. Potatoes, toast, bacon sarnies. Most savoury dishes, put cheese on and melt it, you have just improved it.

    I chucked a load of cheese on top of the spag bol my wife made me and it improved it considerably, might have made it 10 times fattier tho!

    I hope to god you didn't tell her that!

    Ice cream.

    Cheese won't cure a hangover. Ice cream will.

    Case closed.
    Another vote for ice cream here.

    Although if you do have to go for something protein rich, salty and pungent, for me it was a close call between a nice mature cheddar and fermented seabird.

    Sometimes parts break. Sometimes you crash. Sometimes it’s your fault.
  • Best thing I have ever eaten in my entire life was a Roquefort pizza from a restaurant if Provence somewhere.

    Only this weekend I bought some Gorgonzola which half dribbled out of the packet, gorgeous with my breakfast fry-up.

    Stilton, or good old cheddar is my cheese de jour. Lovely.

    Anyway, as it's late I'll just offer Knob Cheese as an option to be avoided at all costs, and then scuttle quietly away. :wink:

    The only reason I cycle is so that I can live on red wine, cheese and pate.

    I think I have an actual addiction to Feta cheese.

    Roughly chopped tomatos, cucumber, red onion, olives, crumbled feta cheese, a splash of balsamic vinegar, a glug of olive oil and some crusty bread....

    Have to admit I am not a great fan of it. I have at least tried it.

    More of a Devon Blue, or Stilton person myself. I do like a bit of Wensleydale on occasion though :D
