    Thanksgiving cheese....

    Putting together a cheese tray for tomorrow and so far I have the following:

    Cheddar (American and Irish)
    Swiss (Amish stuff from back east)
    Havarti (American)
    Gouda (Dutch)
    Brie (French)
    Wensleydale (English)
    Plus a couple cheese balls (one port wine and the other sharp cheddar)

    Any suggestions for another variety? I love Thanksgiving as it gives me an excuse to buy cheeses I would normally not bring home. The wife is not much of a food adventurer, but the kids and I enjoy trying different stuff.

    I really like the Costco up here. They have a really nice selection of fancy cheeses. Makes it hard to decide sometimes.

    Emmenthaler, Leerdammer cheese, which i prefer over the commercial Gouda, or just walk down the list here:

    That should set you back some ;)

    You need a nice bleu cheese.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Gotta have the traditional favorite of the 70s Jack Cheese (Monterey or Pepper).

    Then there's Cheshire Cheese which is always a good choice.

    I'd say Limburger cheese, but it really does stink, except to the person who eats it.
