Thank you Great Britain for creating the greatest cheeses of all time. Truly one of the GOAT cuisines of the world.
>>21890917>Thinking cheddar is the greatest cheese Tastelet spotted
>>21890973Cheddar is the most popular cheese in the world. It is the emperor of cheese, beloved by all.
>>21890917Cheddar is good but I really like Wensleydale (with or without fruits) and Stilton. Blue Stilton especially
>>21890917a really mature cheddar goes hardmild cheddar sucks though
>>21890917I used to give the Brits shit about their food like everyone else until I tried cheddar + Branston. It's actually very fucking good
>>21890973>it doesn't taste like the scrapings from under someone's toe nails so it's not good
>>21891034>He tasted his toenails
>>21890973You've never eaten a vintage Somerset Cheddar and it shows.
>>21890917There's a kirkland or kerrygold (idr) cheddar cheese from Costco in my fridge rn. Nutty, smooth, absolutely love it.
I do enjoy me some cheddar. Nice, sharp and a bit crunchy from ageing
>>21891020damn that's a hard sell but i'd try it
>>21890973cheddar and (((cheddar))) aren't the same thing, brits just aren't autistic about the naming
Inb4>everyone likes it... so it's BAD!
Crumbly ancient Gouda is the best.
>>21892233>Crumbly ancient Gouda is the best.Nothing wrong with Gouda but you have never really tried other cheeses. Red Leicester (one of the only Brit Cheeses with annatto) is very similar in taste.
>>21892260Oh fuck off, I had literally hundreds of cheeses, I go to two food fairs a year, one among them literally cheese-specific. Cheddar isn't bad flavor-wise but the texture is barely above a brick of american. So sure, if you use it for cooking, or on a burger, it's one of the better cheeses, but plain? Not anywhere close to Gouda.
>>21891034We talking cute anime girl toenails here? This is important.
>>21892328I don't remember mentioning cheddar?But if you want to fly off the handle, with your make believe narratve, then carry on.> I had literally hundreds of cheeses,>literallyI bet literally, that you literally, never had literally hundreds of cheeses, literally.>t. just found the name Gouda and say it's the best because it sounds foreign.
>>21892343>wah wah wahLeicester is just Cheddar with more food coloring. It's LITERALLY even made with the same process as Cheddar.. CHEDDARing.
>>21891001>most popular cheese in the worldits parmigiano, retard
europoor cheeses can't compete with Pepper Jack.
>>21892439try some of themand afterwards, if you still think pepper jack is the best, consider committing ritual suicide
>>21892384You have NEVER eaten it, amongst your 'hundreds' of cheeses. Your just full of BS.
>>21892384red leicester? more like child moe leicester!
>>21892180Yeah it's the salty savory richness of the cheese (and you really do need an aged cheddar-type cheese) with the sweet tanginess of the pickle, which I guess is really a kind of chutney. It's good
>>21892580NTAIt's actually one of my goto choices for sandwiches to take to work.
>>21892547bongsisters how do we respond???
>>21892545Sorry kiddo you just know NOTHING about the ways of the cheese, it is extremely easy to amass a large list of cheeses, but the real challenge is finding those that are actually distinctive, which Leicester is NOT. Tards will rant and rave about "obscure" crap like Cinco Lanzas Gran Reserva 16 or whatever and then you try it and it's the same generic goat+cow cheese as 20+ other ones.
>>21892771see >>21892545
>>21892223>brits just aren't autistic about the namingNot sure but I think they only have two protected designations with cheese.One is 'West Country Farmhouse Cheddar' and the other is 'Stilton'. WCF cheddar is a class above other cheddars and it can only be produced in 3 counties and tends to be 'not cheap'.Stilton is widely available but again restricted to being produced in a few counties.
>>21892817That you have no argument was clear much sooner than that :^)
>>21891020I've always assumed that people who make a point of hating on British cuisine just hate simple food like cheese, cake, meat pie and ale/cider. To each their own I guess.
>>21892328>barely above a brick of AmericanThis is high praise, American cheese has a more toothsome texture than almost any other cheese, i agree cheddar is barely better when served cold/room temp. But american cheese is supreme when melted >t. chadmerican who just bought his weekly 2lbs of fresh sliced yellow Land O’ Lakes
>>21892962>This is high praise, American cheese has a more toothsome texture than almost any other cheeseI read this in Foghorn Leghorn's voice.
>>21891055It's not really "Kirkland" cheddar, it's "Coastal" brand cheddar that Costco pressured into a cobranding scheme as "Kirkland Coastal".Great stuff, it's the one I always get.
>>21892233I've got an aged farmers cheese, it's a type of Gouda that is made by one specific farm with unpasteurized milk. It is divine
>>21892952They largely do it because it's a meme.
>>21890917Like what? Cheddar and its orange cousin are ok but not even top 30 best cheeses of europe. Although there’s probably better cheeses in the UK I’m not aware of.
>>21893063id say some cheddars are in for a chance and im a euro with lots of cheese xp.take a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_British_cheesessome very good cheddars are made by keens, montgomary, snowdonia and glastonbury creameries.not cheddar but close enough if you like that style, great cheeses to try would include wyfe of bath, sussex charmer, lincolnshire poacher, hereford hop and cornish yard
>>21892962>But american cheese is supreme when meltedIt's plastic and melts at room temperature, this thread is not discussing 'imitation cheese'.
>>21892388No its not you hairy stinking wop. Mozarella maybe. But parmiganooó definitely not.
>>21893036I get this from time to time but it has been sold out forever lately https://www.goudacheeseshop.com/crumbly-farmhouse-gouda-cheese.html
>>21892952It's popular and a way of scratching the bigotry itch without anyone screaming for their beheading, so if you post "the British conquered the world for spices, THEY NEVER USE XDXDXDXDXD" you'll get a nice dopamine hit from the 386,657 lols and 37,368 updoots you'll instantly get.
