if this is a POO type situation it's gotta be cooked

i used to be a fromager you know

― the late great, Monday, 13 January 2014 04:31 (twelve years ago)

so my impulse is to argue against the idea of the poll in general

having said that, i can imagine life without blue cheeses, soft cheeses or fresh cheese but i can't imagine pasta without parmiganio reggiano, sandwiches without swiss, pizza without processed mozzarella, etc

inherently cheesy flavors

pressed sheep's milk cheese is pretty great

I have favorites in almost every category. Rather than do an injustice to far more than half of my favorite cheeses by voting for a select few, I refuse to vote.

My cheese family is "goat" to be honest. But of this lot, bloomy rind or blue. My favourite cheese in the world, though, is a bloomy rind called Helford Blue so I guess I'm going with blue.

― Branwell Bell, Monday, 13 January 2014 10:38 (twelve years ago)

washed rind with blue as a close 2nd

the entire cheese family, FU to the entire concept of having to choose

― lex pretend, Monday, 13 January 2014 13:17 (twelve years ago)

i can't imagine pasta without parmiganio reggiano

^ this stuff must account for at least 5% of my annual budget

― Lee626, Monday, 13 January 2014 13:24 (twelve years ago)

Even though it's less versatile than the other families on the list, blue cheese is the family that I enjoy the most on its own merits so that's getting my vote.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

― System, Tuesday, 14 January 2014 00:01 (twelve years ago)

Cooked, if I can only choose one. But this is the first time I have heard the term "cooked" applied to these cheeses. But I am not a fromager so idk.

this thread title is very comforting, picturing a family made of cheese
