Really though, I never knew so much could be said about cheese. I officially dedicate this song to both of you.

Thanks for the dedication. Cheese is a way of life. Don't worry, I also got some other slightly less peculiar presents.

It helps little that none of you are crazy for feta cheese. I mean just look at these clusters!

Feta isn't something I'm terribly fond of, unless it's with a salad or something. In all honesty, I ignore it entirely unless I'm dining with my Greek friends, all of whom seem to be competing with Ireland for the title of 'biggest contribution to making guests fat' (with Bangladesh and Iran neck-and-neck for fourth place).

Did you know that cheese advertisments are to banned at certain times as cheese is for some reason classed as a junk food by that great tool of evil we call a 'government'?

That's utterly reprehensible. I'm quite, quite disgusted by that. Surely there's still McDonalds/ Burger King (etc) adverts on all year round? I think we, the cheese lovers, and the cheese companies (except for babybel, they can fuck right off) should pull together and storm parliament, demanding our rights to fine cheeses.

I've gone far too long without Roquefort. We had some in recently, sort of left it for a few weeks, and it went all watery and weird and had a taste that, quite literally, made me see God. I may have mentioned it once or thrice already in this thread.
Does anyone know of the alleged 'psychedelic' cheeses? I read somewhere that there are generally-available cheeses which contain similar properties to mushrooms (psycheglobin? [sp?]).
