Crappy cheese? You really haven't lived until you've eaten a dairy product that tries to eat you first.
Actually, my absolute favourite cheese of all time, the apotheosis of the cheese kingdom, is roquefort. Apart from the orgasmically delicious flavour experience, it also has a fantastic origin story as well:
"Legend has it that the cheese was discovered when a youth, eating his lunch of bread and ewes' milk cheese, saw a beautiful girl in the distance. Abandoning his meal in a nearby cave, he ran to meet her. When he returned a few months later, the mould (Penicillium roqueforti) had transformed his plain cheese into Roquefort." (emphasis and de-Americanised spelling mine)
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Cheese with mould... -.-'
On this corner of the world, there's a special kind of cheese called "flamengo". Similar to edam, but not the same. Don't know why it can't be found anywhere else, but it's the best cheese you can have. Kids love it, it melts just right, fits nicely with some chouriço (or chorizo) and other sausage-like pork by-products we have: chourição, paio, fiambre, presunto, mortadela... but cheese in a salad? doesn't sound right. A salad should only have veggies.

Pfft, yeah right... I add meat to mine. Take a plate, put a nice juicy grilled steak in it. On the side, have a full veggie salad.
It's almost the same!  but better!

Then, take away the salad and replace it with another steak.

It could have been that... it certainly wasn't the Boris picture you have as your avatar though.

Agreed! Though a black Appenzeller or a nice Parmesan is more to my taste 
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
