Happy Cheese Lover’s Day!
I like cheese. I usually eat it as part of a dish, like grated cheddar on my tacos or steamed cauliflower, but sometimes I’ll enjoy a few cubes of cheese if it’s awesome like Gouda. However, I wouldn’t say I’m a lover of cheese.
My hubby is obsessed with cheese. If you want to give him the perfect present, buy him cheese. My parents do this for Christmas, and he loves to try unusual cheeses that I can’t buy at Walmart.
Cheese.com calls itself “The World’s Greatest Cheese Resource.” They describe 1833 different kinds of cheese. I didn’t know it was possible to have that many cheeses. A fun challenge for a cheese lover would be to try them all.
The lists are broken down by country, type, texture, and color. The colors surprised me. How many of these colors have you seen in cheese?
- Blue
- Blue-grey
- Brown
- Brownish-yellow
- Cream
- Golden orange
- Golden yellow
- Green
- Ivory
- Orange
- Pale white
- Pale yellow
- Pink and white
- Red
- Straw
- White
- Yellow
What a list! Green cheese?! Red cheese?! Who knew? I’m curious how pale white is different than white, which seems pale to me already.
Why not try an unusual cheese today? I don’t know if you’ll find a pink and white one at a normal grocery store, but they might have something unique. Just make sure the green isn’t mold.
