    Nah most of these are way too exotic for the whitest of white people. Plenty of them get scared by anything that's not mild Cheddar or Colby Jack.

          Our palates are not underdeveloped, we just understand the joys of life.

          And the joysnof life consist of deep fried carbs and dying early, fuck your steak with cheese.

          Unless you’re from the sout e*ros just eat undercooked meat with like zero seasoning as if your citizenship depends on it

      Customer: "WHY CAN"T I GET 'MURICAN CHEESE SLICED OFF OF A GIANT BLOCK!!!"

      Me working at a grocery store: "Sir, American cheese is just oil, dairy whey powder, yellow food coloring and salt chilled into a gelatinous goop that's pressed into plastic sheeting. If you want American cheese from its more natural form I'll grab you a can of aerosol spray cheese on aisle 6."

        We actually had big blocks of American cheese you could get sliced. But it was such a massive pain. If you didn't put paper between the slices, they'd just re-congeal...yum

    I do agree parmesan is the king of cheese. They made a cheese that's exactly the same but without the origin brand shenanigans in Uruguay and argentina. It's much cheaper to buy that one.

    Calling parmigiano the 'king of cheese' is my true issue with this post. I'm already inspired to do a ten part video essay on why that's not true and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

        I mean, fuck French culture, especially the "auteuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuur" libertarian-alert side of it, of course, but I am definitely talking about Napa Valley liberals most of the time that only happen to be utterly in awe of the aforementioned French fucks.

      This is declaring an Italian cheese King of Cheese, pretty sure it'll make the French bring out the gui-better

    I mean, you could technically make one

    Burratta - a type of toast can be made with it (breakfast)

    Mozzarella - pizza (main course)

    Brie - Butter brie sandwich (snack)

    ricotta / marscapone - tiramisu (desert)

        No lie, me and a black fella were talking about that line in real life and a white boy heard us and came over to say "I love cheese!" He'd never seen the show so the two of us just burst out laughing because he was so sincere.

        Like he thought we were giving out samples or sharing restaurant ideas and came over to talk about it.
