OMG!! We ran out of brunost for breakfast today. Now what? It´s hard to live without it LOL The grocery stores are almost empty because of the transport strike
There hasn´t been a brunost in sight for the last couple of weeks, along with many other types of food. Hope they will come to an agreement in not too long...breakfasts without brunost is

That looks YUMMY!!!!!!!! Can u describe the flavor at all?

What about breakfast with croissants??? Is that so strange? In Italy it is UNTHINABLE to have breakfast with ANYTHING that's not sweet...when I went to Germany, I nearly fainted when I saw something that resembled a water downed salame on the breakfast table! I was verrrrrrry reluctant at first, but after the first taste I regret not being able to eat those lovely cheese and meat in the morning. I strictly COULD cook eggs in my house in the morning, but it just seems so........unusual...I think 100% of my friends and family would drop dead at the smell of frying eggs in the morning...strange how traditions for breakfast differ...

Oh poor Nomad !!! Nearly 3 weeks on strike !!! Um, is that milk or eggs in the boxes..milk I an guessing
...It is strange, the different customs. I have toast every morning, with either banana or vegemite, and a cuppa with milk in it. And on the weekends I will often have crumpets with maple syrup..YUUMM. I love those breakfasts you get if you stay at a big hotel..you eat so much that you dont need lunch *guts*
Dont do it at home tho...
Maybe I should send you some Tim Tams, Nomad .... they have some dairy goodness in them :)

I much prefer sweet breakfasts too:) And that´s where the brunost comes in handy. One-sided sandwich with brunost, or jam, and I´m starting to wake up. Along with coffee.

How to describe the taste?? It´s a cheese, but not in the traditional sense. Not matured for ages with all sorts of bacterias(if you start thinking about it) No this is milk, cooked until dry, almost, added sugar and then cooked some more. I went to school next to a dairy that cooked brunost a couple of times a week, and it smells wonderful! My grandmother used to cook something similar, only a softer consistency, and added raisins and cinnamon...mmmm..gomme..

that def sounds like mysingur(which I love), granted mysingur is made from Mysa (can't remember the english name for it, it's what runs off when you make cheese) and not milk, but it tastes pretty much the same
