One day I need to visit Europe and spend a week just eating cheeses. I’ve tried buying most of these different cheeses in an upscale American supermarket and have been very disappointed. Even the ones imported from Europe, every variety just sort of tastes either gross or too similar. I swear Manchego tasted better 20 years ago the first time I had it in the US, maybe then big business got ahold of it. The best cheese I’ve ever tasted as an American was actually an expired Limburger cheese. It had such an amazing taste, I’m not joking. But it was at a weird outlet store that sells expired food and I never saw it again. The only semi exception to this rule (although I still have to make sure it’s authentic!) is buying Parmigiano Reggiano, that stuff is a staple in our household. Then again the best steak I’ve ever eaten was a 45 day dry aged steak, so I guess I just like funky flavors. Tasted like the most amazing cheese + amazing steak at the same time.
