I love it when you get to have cheese AND dessert too. And of course, for the French, wine with dinner is mandatory. Another plus. Cheese is multi-faceted. I love that white, spreadable cheese, what-did-we-call-it philadelphia cheese? <br /><br />But I haven't had it in years. Neither the wine nor the cheese. Indian cheese is another thing entirely, and culturally, wine doesn't figure. Sigh!

Mr V attended and said it was the most disgusting experience of his life. It was supposed to be up for a month or whenever the health authorities showed up. They showed up and shut the venture down.

Bring on the stinky cheese! My father used to order something from Germany that was so foul, my mother did not allow him to open the crock in the house. On winter nights, he and I would have rye crisp and stinky cheese in the garage. (I think it's responsible for my amazing immune system)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
