As a cheese lover you must contemplate whether or not you wish to eat reduced fat or (gasp!) fat-free cheese. I recommend that you save your calories and indulge in full-fat cheese. It must be an enormous challenge for a cheese producer to retain flavor when removing the fat. The best example of a mostly tasteless reduced fat cheese is Sargento's Reduced Fat Swiss Cheese made from 2% milk.
Instead, try a deli cut Alpine Lace Swiss Cheese. Pair with a tart apple, fresh whole wheat bread and a dressing of choice.

Hot Cheese of the Week
Most recently I have come across a Gorgonzola Piccante that is just fabulous. For those of you cheese lovers that don't like stilton or blue cheese, but enjoy the strength and depth of flavor that a gorgonzola brings, try the Piccante. I find it well paired with Hearts of Romaine Lettuce, walnuts, dried Cherries from Cherry Republic and a nice balsamic dressing. Enjoy!
Welcome to the World of Cheese
Hello Cheese lovers! This is my new blog about my favorite food. Honestly, who can survive without cheese? your sandwich would be bare, your salad without flavor, your grilled cheese without... need I say more?
This blog is not intended as an encyclopedic resource. And I don't, by any means, claim to be an expert on cheese. My intent here is to simply share my passion for cheese with you and provide assistance and inspiration on finding ways to enjoy and appreciate it. You can look forward to quick recipes, postings about new finds, bad rinds, and great pairings. I am also here for advice on good party combinations and quick tips.
I look forward to our future conversations. And don't forget to smile when you're shopping for cheese!!!
