Mature cheese!!

Nope, OK with a beard, it's the waxed moustache I have trouble with!

My dear auld Dad used to have one of those, bless his cotton socks, he also used brilliantine on his hair as well!

Cheese = wrong. I can just about tolerate a bit of weak poofy cheddar if its covered in Branston Pickle. Anything worse than that I cant eat. I have tried many and various types, but Roquefort is clearly disgusting, anyone can see that.
Whilst married to a former Mme Leponge we had been on hols in France and come back to UK with some cheeses for her. I took my car to work, in September, and went away. During that time, the packet of Roquefort that I hadnt seen under the passenger seat had got so hot that it had exploded all over the back of my car. The smell when I got back after a month of summer sunshine was too awful to describe.

I bought 500grams of Roquefort at a French market last week I am looking forward to it with a bottle or two of Merlot!

Cheese = wrong...

Lol! That is soooo wrong! You will have to take 'cheese appreciation' classes. I'm sure the French will probably have some such thing for children! You could start with mild cheeses like soft cheeses and work your way up to 'proper' cheeses....mmmm baked boxes of camembert!

What are you implying about my mental age SBP?

Now that's what I call heaven

[smallblueplanet]

I'm merely suggesting that the French are used to 'educating palates' of those who might not be used to appreciating the finer things in life!

[bobleponge]

But, as vile stinky Roquefort couldnt possibly ever be described as one of the finer things in life, I'm sure I wouldnt need it!!
Amazes me though, used to get the ex's kids friends coming round, and we could ask them what wine goes with what cheese, and the majority of them had a much better idea than we did as adults.
We eat to live but the French truly do live to eat.

At its best cheese should be mouldy and running off the plate. Yum!!

I hide mine so the boys can't eat it, but I dont have a problem, honest

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Brie trying to escape, can't beat it.

not a fan of strong cheeses though, can't eat anything with blue viens
