I don't mean like poo poo-talking velveeta or kraft singles, that's just normal. And not like, blue cheese aficionados against the world, its fine if your taste for mold tends toward one way or the other. I mean like booze snobs. Wine people who think white wine is effete, or how anyone could drink pinot, how crass. Or beer snobs who won't touch a beer that wasn't some spontaneously fermented from some belgian monk's dick yeast. The real insufferable type of snobs. For cheese though. I don't see it- like "Camembert? More like Camembasic. Oh you eat unaged cheddar? How common. You call this white rubbery stuff mozzarella??" (Ok some people can get a bit like this about mozzeralla). People are for sure like, this cheese is better than that cheese, but nobody's turning down a slice of pizza because the cheese is sub-par. You already ordered a big mac, you aren't about to turn your nose up at the processed cheese slice. Yeah it's gross, but you're still going to enjoy it. Are there cheese snobs?  WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?

I was at a very small dairy/cheesemaking place in another country and was tasting their cheeses (which were good!). the serving lady was like "these are just out of the fridge, I'm sorry, it's been slow today" and I was like "I don't gaf lady gimme dat curd." a group entered behind me including a lady probably in her sixties. she was offered the tasting with the same disclaimers and she wrinkled up her nose and said, witheringly, "I don't like cold cheese." that lady was a certified cheese snob.

I was staying in a hotel by the airport in LA once and there was this annoying British family there. At the breakfast buffet, one of the kids was giving his grandma poo poo over wherever breakfast item it was (maybe it was those eggs with melted orange cheese mixed through like you get at some hotel buffet breakfasts). "I don' wan it Nanna! It's got choueese on it! I tol' you I don' wan anyfink if it's got choueese on it!". Was he like some kind of anti-cheese snob? Or just an overprivleged little poo poo? |

A good cheese tastes best when it is at room temperature but cold cheese (depending on the cheese) is also tasty. I'm sort of a snob but not exactly. The worst cheese snob I've had the misfortune to "encounter" was this rear end in a top hat woman shopping at Cheese Board (https://cheeseboardcollective.coop/) on the day before Christmas. The Day Before Christmas. The store is packed, people are lined up outside to get in and this rear end in a top hat is demanding various samples for herself and also her daughter "as it's important to develop her palate" and I don't know how we all managed the self-control to not beat her down with a cheddar wheel. Everywhere, everyone is red and green |

there are beer people who would choose not to drink at a bbq if the only beer the host had was Coors Lite. Imagine someone eating a dry cracker at a party because the cheese was la vache qui rit. |

my last boss made a bet with a diff employee and when he won it, she had to buy whatever cheese he wanted and he demanded some aged small wheel of some kind of cheese that was coated--and thus sealed from the air-- by a layer of caramel. i dunno how much the cheese was, which would determine if he was a cheese snob or a cheese freak

Imagine someone eating a dry cracker at a party because the cheese was la vache qui rit. If the only beer on offer was Budweiser I'd probably just drink g&ts or the wine or something. Certain beer brands are like too sweet or have a strong acetaldehyde taste to me. |

order rennet from etsy to make your own ricotta at home. when it doesn’t firm up and you’ve wasted 3 gallons of milk, use it to make 32oz mango lassis for your whole family and then take turns farting away a stomach ache. this is one stop on the road to cheese snobbery. |

where do people who absolutely insist on putting cheez whiz on their philly cheesesteaks fall? provolone is often an option but many are fully on board with the whiz. and yet . . . its cheez whiz, one of the most processed forms of cheese imaginable. it's like, can you be called a bread snob if you'll only eat wonder bread?

I think it has to do with how you express your opinion. If you insist that your opinion must be taken as fact, then you might be a snob. This is particularly true if you insist that only a particular type of ingredient or preparation method is "correct". If you acknowledge that taste in food and beverages is subjective and varies widely, then you are most likely not a snob. are always funny, though.

There's crappy cheese, but that's still better then "not cheese" unless its something that should absolutely not have cheese. There's wrong cheese, but I feel like you have to go out of your way or make bad decisions to make this happen. There's better cheese, but with the above statements in mind, I love cheese however I am definitely not a snob.
