Never mind the spelling. Unless we're talking blue cheeses (Stilton, Gorgonzola, etc.), the green or blue has nothing to do with the making of the cheese; the microbes in question are rather the colorless Lactobacilli and other dairy bacteria.

Some Swiss, Dutch and Danish cheeses round up my selection every once in a while. I use cheddar (English cheddar, sometimes white, sometimes orange coloured) mostly in ham & cheese omelettes, or sometimes cubed as snacks. I don’t like the sliced processed cheeses (American cheese) which some people put on US style bread (Toastbrot), but it does make an edible grilled cheese toast. Every once in a while. What I missed most during nearly 12 years in the USA was real cheeses and real bread.

@@BenjoCovers I try to buy organic cheeses as much as possible, in Germany organic is called „Bio“ and those cows lead a much better life, spending a lot of time outside grazing, being able to roam and eating mostly grass and hay. Of course their milk output is less than that from the cows in conventional milkfarms, which makes the cheeses more expensive, but it’s worth it. Or cheese from smaller, local “Käsereien” like Bergader in Bavaria. On their website you can find links to the milkfarmers who supply the milk to Bergader, with details on each farm, how many or how few cows they have, if they’re mostly inside or allowed to roam, if the particular farm offers “farm vacations” etc. Being a smaller “Kaeserei” they offer less variety than the big companies, but then I can choose a different cheese from a different “Kaeserei”. My favorite cheese, I eat about 1 wedge every week, is the 200 grams Bio Camembert from Edeka. Maybe I gave the wrong impression, I don’t eat lots of cheeses all the time, it’s the variety I like.

As for processed cheese if eating hard cheese like cheddar all the way to pecorino gives you migraines but you still need a non medicated way of getting calcium, processed cheese maybe the way to go for you ( although as I found out recently when I had to go on an elimination diet, cheese wasn’t a trigger for what’s going on with me). And as for the flavour in processed cheese it’s improved slightly in recent years ( It’s not as plastic flavoured as I once remembered it)…🧀…… ⚛️☮️🌏

No wonder why I ate a wheelworth of cheese in a year at my job lol

[@AudriannaB-World-Peace]

I get real Parmesan and grate it myself...now THAT is healthy. Anything by Kraft like their fake cheeses are very salty snd does not taste good at all.

If the Americans believe that orange cheese is natural, it says a lot about the state of American cheese

You say the rind of brie is delicious I beg to differ,the first time I tasted brie I found the rind tasted strongly of Ammonia,put me right off the cheese and I have never eaten it since.

[@SkyeBjS]

If it tasted/smelled of ammonia, it was old. It should have been thrown out.

[@wintersprite]

I think the rind of brie is disgusting. I also hate bleu cheese.

[@StooFras-TheFiresofHell.]

@@SkyeBjS The actual cheese itself inside the rind was creamy and quite nice,too mild to my way of thinking I like a strong cheese myself,but as I say the rind tasted weird.

The cheese that you're talking about the people buy and sometimes put on sandwiches the Kraft cheese it has been proven to have plastic particles on it.

You seem to be unaware that Kosher cheese does not contain rennet - milk+meat products are a big no no in a Kosher diet - much easier to fine than non-rennet cheeses and usually taste better too.

[@AbsoluteNut1]

Why would anyone care about the fat content of cheese. It's phocking CHEESE! It's not good for you! Eat more cheddar.

False the quality chesse was orange originally but to make more money they skimmed it then added carrot juice

‘190mg per ounce’. Seriously? 3/16 of a kilometre, 1/4 lb per kilogram, 0,3 decilitres per hogshead. Whatever goes

[@constitutionalrepublic1966]

Make your own cheese.🧀 It’s so easy and you just need 2-3 ingredients. Milk, salt, and an acid base like vinegar/lemons/citric acid to curdle the milk and separate the cheese and whey.

Brie and Camembert are the same thing. Change my mind *sips on coffee mug

[@FordHallam]

I suppose it'd be hard to discern much difference between these cheeses while drinking coffee ;-) But I'd suggest there is quite a difference, more than that between coke and Pepsi, which seems to get an awful lot of non-foodie types worked up. Ultimately it's down to your palette and what you enjoy, so if your distinction relies on taste alone, that's on you :-)

[@jameslovelady7751]

Don't be so snarky about other people's taste. I find brie to be as slimy and tasteless as Velveeta so I go for the Manchega. Each to their own.
