    I cannot wait to go to France next summer since my favourite foods are wine, cheese, bread, and chocolate.... I foresee a great deal of exercise and dieting when I get home...

    Cheese...oh, just the thought of it...the one food that I could not live without.

    I am such a cheese head that a 12 step program has been suggested.

    My students even gave me cheese for Christmas....


    AHHHHHH.....cheese......

    Oh, cheese, I love you so.

    The greatest thing about cheese is that when you accept cheese her your heart, she gives love back to you. Unlike most snacks, cheese is a real food with real nutrients and real character.

    Really delicious food encourages mindful, healthy eating. I can scarf down 200 calories of potato chips in an instant and still not feel satisfied, but eating the same amount of aged gouda is ten minutes of meditation. I nibble and chew and enjoy the sweet, caramelly goodness of it all.

    Chevre just cries out to be accompanied by sliced, ripe tomatoes and fresh basil, a mound of sauteed greens or maybe a bit of honey.

    Bleu cheese loves nothing better than to be crumbled atop a huge green salad.

    Paneer would never be seen in public without her best friend, mounds of perfectly spiced spinach.

    Cheddar prefers the company of sliced onion, a whole-grain roll and plenty of Branston pickle.

    To paraphrase Emma Goldman, if I can't have cheese, I don't want to be part of your revolution.

    Cheese. Yum.

    Or honey.

    I have fond memories of eating slices of cheddar and apple with honey.
