       I am so bummed. DH and I visited a creamery weekend before last
       and tasted about 7 of their cheeses. We selected 4 types,
       spending about $40 in total for about 2lbs of cheese. They had
       .5 lb portions pre-wrapped instead of cutting and wrapping fresh
       for us. We tried 1 soon after we returned and it was fine. I
       opened another Sunday and it had mold that needed to be cut off
       but since it was a hard cheese, I could salvage about half of it
       and then put in one of my cheese bags. I opened the other 2
       tonight and neither had been wrapped properly and were ruined.
       They were softer cheese and there was too much moisture.
       Never again do I pay premium cheese prices without watching them
       being cut and wrapped.

       Cheese! One of the few things preventing me from going vegan.
       Have any of you found any good vegan cheese? Nothing I try comes
       remotely close to the real thing.
       I really like cheese from Sugarbush Farm in Vermont. I have even
       visited it twice. My favorite is the Smoked Cheddar with Onion.

       Vegan cheese has gotten better in the past few years. It's still
       not good enough to be eaten alone. However, I have had it in as
       a part of a dish and it was OK. I am not a vegan but I eat a lot
       of vegan food.
       I am a cheese lover but I am not a huge cheddar fan. I have
       tried English, Irish and American cheddar. I even bought a small
       piece of 15-year-old cheddar for some ridiculous price just to
       see if I could change my mind. I thought it was OK. My favorite
       cheese is probably Rush Creek Reserve. It probably because it is
       only available for a limited time. Our most common bought cheese
       is probably jalapeno Muenster. It's nice on sandwiches and in
       eggs.

       I would not ever expect a piece of soft moist cheese to keep for
       a fortnight after being cut, no matter how carefully wrapped,
       unless it was pasteurised, irradiated, biologically-dead
       factory-made cheese.
