Ok, to be clear, I meant LJ cuts when I said cuts. I'm sorry I didn't think of how that could be taken. I'll admit, I get down sometimes. But, I could never do that to myself. I also know that my family and close friends care about me very much and would be extremely worried if I ever did that kind of crap.
Ok, now that that's hopefully clear, I'll talk about cheese. I don't know how many people are aware, but I was raised on a cattle ranch. So, I have a certain love of meat that is perhaps more than some people. That said, I love cheese so much more.
How do I like my cheese? I enjoy much the same way I enjoy fish. When it's the right kind, I like eating it raw. However, I love it much much more cooked and melted. In my opinion, cheese can make almost any dish even better. I put it in soups, chilis, hot dishes, pasta dishes, ramen, toasted on bread, on eggs, on potatoes, etc. It's weird to eat a burger without cheese for me.
It seems to me that cooking cheese unlocks it magical taste. One of my favorites is a good sharp cheddar flavor-wise, although I really enjoy mozzarella for its low melting point. I haven't tried many kinds of cheese as they can be a bit expensive and I'm cheap. American's pretty good for raisin bread and burgers and such and can be helpful for casseroles. I also enjoy swiss, especially on mushroom and swiss burgers. Oh, and pepper jack is awesome on sandwiches. Now, when I say cheese, this isn't just the typical stuff. I also love cottage cheese and cream cheese.
Why in the world did I pick cheese as a topic? Someone I know once told me, "Don't be sad. There are plenty of things to be happy about, like cheese." Cheese does indeed make me happy. I actually think a good cheesy meal would make me happier than coffee.
