My favorite is Brie. I hate those Kraft singles that are only good for throwing at people. Not that celebrities should be doing that. I threw my slice in my closet when I was a kid.

So what cheese is your favorite and what kind do you hate?

I love cheese but it's a bad fear food so I've been avoiding it for months. Provologne is my favorite followed by Swiss. I kinda like those kraft singles for PB&Js but not as "cheese" (let's face it, they're not cheese).

I don't really like feta that much but mostly just because when places give you it in a meal (and I'm not fancy enough to buy it myself) they way overdo it. I had it in a wrap once in a perfect amount and loved it.

Oh I hate parmesan. That butyric acid smell gets to me. I can't pretend it's not a vomit smell.

I like all cheese, I'm beginning to think: Swiss, brie, feta, parmesan, mozzarella, Provolone, blue cheese, gorgongolza, most of the normal -cheddar, moneterey jack, etc. I don't like Kraft singles but that's about it.

When I was a kid my mom and I were at the grocery store and a lady at the deli ordered blue cheese and I asked my mom why it wasn’t blue.

My grandmother used to feed my sister and me blue cheese on saltine crackers. We considered it a treat. Even though we were kids (around 5, 6 years old) we loved it! I've had a taste for it since.

I stopped buying Kraft Singles when I learned that they are not actually a true cheese. I don't remember the criteria, but those singles come in a package that says, "Cheese food." That's not the same as "cheese," according to the federal government.

I read that the harder a cheese is, the higher its protein content will be. So I buy Swiss and cheddar. Once in a while, I love a grilled cheese sandwich made with American. On crackers, I like those cheese balls that are encrusted with almond slices. They're soft and spreadable.

For a solid two months my “dinner” used to be swiss cheese microwaved until it melted mixed with sriracha

I too love sharp cheddar warmed at room temperature. Don’t know if it’s true but I read decades ago that the hard cheeses actually help the bacteria in your mouth stay in balance. So I’d warm the cheddar a bit and give it to my daughters before bed. Doesn’t seem to have hurt her, she has great teeth. But now days a dentist coats kids teeth with a protective coat, so they probably don’t need it.

I fell in love with blue cheese. At my father's wake, a cousin asked me to finish the last of the potato salad she had contributed.
I had eaten some blue cheese prior. I had an 8 hour drive back to my city of residence and two hours into it I started to get sick. Real sick.
I retched and retched and all I could taste was the blue cheese. I was food poisoned by her runny potato salad. Sick as a dog. Worse than the flu.
I couldn't eat blue cheese for the next 20 years, even though I knew it was not the fault of the blue cheese.
They do something similar to control predators such as coyotes and wolves. They poison a sheep carcass and let them feed on it.
The get so sick from it, they want nothing more to do with sheep.

Most favorite: parmesan and mozzarella.
Neutral: cheddar, and most of cheeses. To be honest, I like Kraft singles.
Hate: any stinky goat cheese, especially goat camembert.

What? No votes for Limburger? The cheese is fermented by
Brevibacterium linens, the same one found on human skin that is partially responsible for body odor (particularly foot odor).
Yum!
Thanks for this!

Swiss, American, provolone, mozzarella. Anything but Feta. That smells horrible.

Last couple of years, aside from the usual bulk 'cheddar'....I'll buy a block of imported Red Leicester or Double Gloucester. Has to be a special occasion. Really have to watch it with cheese. I think I probably like them all but man that stuff needs to be locked up...I go all cookie monster with cheese around.
