wow! Very interesting topic.
I've never been too fond of cheese, once tried brie and gagged -
But after seeing the show Modern Marvels featuring cheese, It moved me how some people viewed it. It was a hobby unlike any others - I immediately wanted to "Get into it".
Tried Brie again, and still don't really have a taste for it - and aside from blue cheese dressing ( and maybe blue cheese on a burger) I can't really stand it.
I still semi-seriously joke with my girlfriend that my dream is to open up a cheese and wine shop - But i'll have to acquire the taste first.
I like most standard "American" Cheeses. Really enjoy the 'swiss' by itself, cheddar, whateves.
