also, while we're doing sandwich cheese chat, i quite like muenster cheese. its not fancy, but it has a mellow vaguely nutty flavor and also melts well. most importantly it lacks the weird plasticky chemical tang of American Cheese^TM.

Yeah, muenster is good. And although I find american cheese to be tolerable in grilled-cheese sammiches, there are several dozen cheeses that are superior for that (or any) purpose.

Thanks to Manifisto for the sig!

Speaking of farmer's markets, my partner went to one yesteday and bought some local blueberry honey that tastes how flowers smell and it is amazing.

There's one cheese I buy every once in a while thinking maybe all the other times I bought it, I got a duff one, but always, every time, is pure disappointment. Mimolette.
Look at this. Doesn't it make promises of epicurian delight?

I'm thinking about the place Kraft singles have in humanity's rich palette, and I'm wondering if, when we start colonizing other planets, that's what people will get for cheese, and be super grateful for it. I think there's probably a place for highly processed highly stable foods, and there may come a time when people are intensely grateful for Kraft Dinner because it'll be so vastly superior to every other available option.

I think about space exploration a whole lot.

People will chop up and fry the local onion analogues (the once that don't kill you, guess how many colonists we lost to that one?) and mix it in with the processed food product, add some of those flowers that only give you violent GI distress if you eat too many, but taste amazing, and 100 years later, hipster popup restaurants specializing in authentic Alpha Centauri style engineered soy kibble will start appearing on Brooklyn Floating City and the trendy beachside bars of Sacramento.

I haven't eaten a cheese in 27 years. My one regret about this is that I have not tasted muenster, and I like to eat things whose names sound like monster.

I have yet to find a vegan cheese I like. Still searching, though.

If you like a strong cheese, Miyoko's "black ash" is really good (slice it super thin and put it on a cracker, it's so strong that it's worth the hefty price because you can cheese up 6 crackers with the mass of cheese that would normally accommodate one cracker.)

Daiya's jalapeno havarti block is probably my top pick for a grilled cheese, followed by follow your heart's smoked gouda slices.

The Daiya jalapeno havarti is real good for cheese fries too. Much better than their standard shreds.

I like Chao tomato cayenne for my grilled cheese.

Miyoko is really good but I have to go a little bit out of my way to find it here. I also like their butter and their like, pretzel dip thing. Man it really is my top pick all around whenever I have it.

I'm always a bit disappointed by every *other* Miyoko product because the black ash is so good. Their cream cheese errs too far cheesy not enough creamy. Though I also like that they made their cheese recipes public, not just because that's nice, but because it fully justifies the high prices as soon as you start to think about the DIY process. (Unlike, say, vegan cheesecake, which has high prices and isn't actually hard to DIY.)

Zil: Satanically Summoned Citrus

Going to have to look for the Miyoko products around here then. Looking at their site and your recommendations, I for sure want to give the stuff a try.

edit: got some butter and cheese sticks to give them a try.

Boba Pearl: by Athanatos

My favorite food is donuts, but not any donuts, it has to be made in a shop that has a 50 year old sign that doesn't really turn on so much as it has a very faint glow, and there's an old lady behind the counter who somehow remembers everything about you even though the last time you were in there was 20 aught 2 the donuts are all delicious, and they have chocolate milk in the fridge you never buy. They also have ham cheese croissants that you never buy. The donuts are like .02c a piece and the dozen costs you some pocket lint, and then you march off.

There's a nearby hole-in-the-wall donut shop that I visit whenever I want donuts. I only ask for one coconut but they give me as many donuts as can fit a small bag, along with coffee for my tumbler. I'm not complaining.

hello everyone, I saw a movie called "everything everywhere all at once" and I really enjoyed it, and I think byob would too. dunno if it's been talked about already but I can't stop thinking about it. I felt like it was made specifically for me :kiddo:

if you do go see it, try to go in with as little information as possible. all you need to know is it's basically byob: the movie

Yes. It's a cream gravy but instead of savory it's sweet chocolate. It's good.
