Oi! As a cheese-eating American, I take extreme exception to that! (there are lovely artisanal goat and sheep-cheese making farms all over the US, even if you don't like American cheddar).
Blue cheese is yummy. Definitely try some.
(okay, so I'm one of those who thinks that Epoisses is a treat, so I'm on the extreme side. But still. Blue=Good)
Also: you cheated, 'cause I've already DONE this me. You're supposed to pick someone who hasn't yet!
Your task, should you choose to accept it, is ... to persuade Kit to try real cheese.
Cheddar comes from Cheddar, just like Champagne comes from Champagne and Chablis comes from Chablis. There's way too much 'cheddar' that may have much the same consistency, but really hasn't been matured, and is quite frankly plastic. Sadly, even in the UK, 'cheddar' is a much maligned name. It's possible that 'American Cheddar' is better, but I've not tried it.
(It seems that most English speaking countries seem to make some form of 'cheddar'.)
I'm glad there are proper cheese makers out there, just as there are proper beer makers these days, competing with the Bud, Coors and Miller stuff. In my visits, I've never encountered them.
OMGSONIC! Sonic is my favorite fast-food restaurant ever! And you only find it really in the South and Midwest, but I have discovered that they are rampant in Central California area. Sadly, there is only one in the entire Los Angeles Metro Area, it's in Orange County, and I'm not driving there unless I happen to be going to Disneyland. But I would drive there after Disneyland just to get my fix of coney dogs and cherry limeaids.
Every time I fly to Kansas City to see the friends or St. Louis to see the fam, I make a pit stop....gah, I now am craving it!
plain aero bar are very good but if you like mint chocolate you should try after eight mints, they are really good. i have never tried blue cheese either but i like the old cheese by crakle barrel and my daughters like the marble cheese.i don't think we have sonic in canada, at least i have never heard of them before now.
17. Name 3 thoughts at this moment. ...My answer to #15 was probably pretty obnoxious.
Not at all! I rather like myself too, and it's nice to see that others do too! Oddly enough, when I see these sorts of memes and everyone always has an answer to the 'what do you dislike about yourself,' it makes me think 'uhhh, what's wrong with me that I don't think things are wrong?' Which is odd and strange. So it is nice to see that someone else likes themselves.

How can you not have tried blue cheese? What are you, an American?
(I'm convinced most of the world's problems are down to you guys thinking cheese is that stuff from Wisconsin. You guys need to learn cheese.)
Why not try some Cashel Blue, since you're in Ireland? You may love it, you may hate it, but if you never try it, you'll never know.
mint bars called Aero
I was never quite sure about the mint version, but they are quite nice in a funny sort of way.

I'm afraid so. *sad look*
I've expanded my repertoire of cheese since coming here, but I donno, food shouldn't be blue. :)
I like mint stuff, so the mint Aeros are nummy. I haven't even tried the plain chocolate ones on the assumption they're nasty.
