Cheese. Lots of Cheese!

After denouncing me for liking Gulden's mustard, you post that YOU cook with 'Mae Ploy' brand pre-made chili sauce? Bless you for your humor! This is NOT to imply that Mae Ploy mixes are bad. In fact, they are delicious. It's just that you led us to believe that you were 'above' such proletariat fare. I guess not. (Breeding will tell. ) ) Do you also put Campbell's Chunky Soups on rice and call them gourmet dishes? |

Cheese. Lots of Cheese!
The annual Cheese Society's show and competition was this last week
in Austin. Earlier today they sold off all the remaining leftover cheese for $5/lb. There were only about 20 people in front of us when they opened the flood gates, and about 200 people there when we left a half hour later. I headed right for the high-end stuff - most of which was gone in 15 minutes. Pictures follow. Some of the cheeses are only labeled by their competition numbers. I didn't know or don't remember what a few of them are, but I will find out as I open them. The list goes like this: Delice de la Vallee (Cow + Goat) Show Goats Triple Cream Brie Motzarella Company's Fresh Motzarella (Dallas) Bellwether Farms Crescenzo Bellwether Farms Carmody Du Village Lady Laurier d'arthabasta La Moutonniere Cabanon Cowgirl Creamery Organic MT Tan Triple Cream Saga Blue Brie (two of those) Marin French Cheese Company Petite Blue Marin French Cheese Company Petite Triple Cream Smoked Chardonay Cheddar Cypress Grove Ripe Goat Cheese w/Ash Meyenberg Smoked Jack Goat Vermont Butter and Cheese Co. Coupole Roundous Tripple "Fest"(?) Firefly Farms Buche Noire Westfield Farm Classic Blue Log St Pete Blue 76 TO 01 37 KF 14 164 FC 02 And one that was completely unlabeled I have a lot of cheese to eat. Pictures: http://i32.tinypic.com/2mi0rc7.jpg http://i26.tinypic.com/2ue4nwi.jpg http://i25.tinypic.com/317duzd.jpg http://i31.tinypic.com/muiovm.jpg http://i32.tinypic.com/14js11j.jpg (Hatch chiles $.88/lb and the CostCo salami for all that cheese) They were not cutting any cheese down and wrapping. What you saw is what you got. And many of the cheeses were 10... 20... and even 30+ pounds. All these cheese you see pictured above only cost $70 (14lbs worth). At retail, $70 would have bought less than 3 pounds of those cheeses. It's going to be a tough week here at Casa Sqwertz. -sw |

It won first place in the show in 1999. http://www.igourmet.com/shoppe/prodview.aspx?prod=1243 I give it an 8.2. And I only paid $1.15 for it, not $7 according to that site.

I trust that you'll be letting us know how the week goes. Felice |

I guess your state's, "It's the Cheese" motto is wearing kinda thin. Maybe you could hang around the Fancy Food Show just as it's wrapping up it's 3-day conference. -sw |

Oh, I guess I need to use a non-NNTP standard formatting newsreader. I use one that allows me to turn off formatting (which I do) so that all posts look the way the Gods of the interNet sanctified them to look. Of course, I didn't think the post was long winded. Several lines were the HTM links to individual pics, but that is preferable to actually posting those pics here. And some of those cheeses look absolutely delish! jt |

Bless you for your humor! Uh, you'll find that it's a favorite in this group. Lots of us use it, and love it. After having tried other brands, Mae Ploy is RFC's favorite. You just insulted a bunch of people here, bucko. Come back next year after changing your nick. > This is NOT to imply that Mae Ploy mixes are bad. It's not a mix. It's a sauce.

You read all posts in one paragraph without an CFLF's? What are you, some sort of masochist? Some of us go out of our way to write properly, in paragraphs with proper spacing. Or do you think a LF character (or CR+LF) takes up significantly more space than ASCII 32 while making it easier to read? Oh, you're a Mac person. Never<sigh>mind. -sw |

Yes, I'm a maccie, but I refer to how MS introduced HMTL formatting many moons ago to newsgroups that had been previously text only. A new line code moved the cursor to the beginning of the next line, and that was a simple chr($13), no chr$(10) needed. To create a paragraph, just hit <RET> twice. And many PC news readers (if not most) can turn off formatting commands and go text only. Call me an old fuddy-duddy, but if I want fancy looks to my forums, I'll abandon usenet the way so many have. I prefer the antique simplicity of a text only newsgroup. That said, I really prefer to hear more about the cheeses. jt |

How can one person eat all of that cheese before it gets moldy?! I like cheese, but no way could I eat that much cheese without having a party and a bunch of other people come over to help me eat it.

Sqwartz didn't buy any, he still had half a box of velveeta in his fridge.

The sqwartz cheese pictures contained nothing we could recognize from his past pictures that would make them undeniably his, in fact they look more phoney than legit... they look much more like those pictures were taken on a table at the cheese bazaar than in his kitchen... all laid out and wrapped for sale.... had a few ben unwrapped and sliced on a plate with some slices of that sausage maybe I'd elive him, maybe... still nothing there proving it's his surroundings. |

Are you planning to have a wine and cheese party?! The cheese was bought by two of us (I did say "we" in my OP). And we share joint custody of it. Some is at her house, but mostly at mine since that's where we spend weekdays. The "weekend cheese", the really messy stuff, is at her house. -sw |

It's a dry salami. It contains curing agents (sodium nitrite and nitrate) + wine and spices. And dried milk for the mold. http://www.columbussalame.com/dyn/co..._detail/6.html -sw |

> > And I forgot how good that Columbus Salami was. *I'm in heaven. If you ever visit the US west coast I recommend that you try Gallo Salame made near San Francisco. It blows away Columbus Salami. It's so good I've gone on Ebay to get it shipped to me here in Chicago metro. It's so good I prefer it to the best imported Italian salami I've tried. Note to self - Try more types of Italian salami in case any of them are as good as Gallo. The SF area is famous for exceptional sourdough bread, Gallo Salame, various other food products. The bread does not travel so even as close as Los Angeles it isn't fresh enough. No such problem with a preserved meat product like salami. Today's cheese - Finn Juusto "Baked Cheese". Each time I go to Wisconson I stop at one of the shops and get some of it, plus several other types of cheese and some types of sausage. Today's sausage for lunch was a brand of Landjaeger that I haven't tried before. |

It blows away > Columbus Salami. I'm very familiar with Gallo salame. Both are made in SF, near where I used to live and play. And this Columbus Salami Fiore is better than any Gallo product I've tried, by far. Lookint at Gallo's ingredients, they don't even use wine in their salame. Hrmpf! ;-) -sw |

If the stove is in the picture, that *is* new. It's black, the old one was almond. Your pictures, otoh, always manage to catch a glimpse of the gawd-awful, bile-yellow laminate countertop, the pattern discontinued in 1972. Looks like somebody with sclerosis of the liver puked in your kitchen (I guess that would be you). Besides - Only ~*patches*~ would have the gall to post something as hideous as the pictures you post. -sw |

Oh, pooh, who could remember the last time you posted something and what... there is nothing in your pictures that makes them undeniably yours. *IF* the stove is in the picture, don't you know??? If you don't know HTF do you expect anyone else to.... your pictures are so severely cropped that they can well have been stolen off the net. > > Your pictures, otoh, always manage to catch a glimpse of the > gawd-awful, bile-yellow laminate countertop, the pattern > discontinued in 1972. That's exactly what I mean, the pictures I post are easily recognizable as mine... I purposely set my same plates on that same counter and include items and background that everyone has seen over and over and that no one else can duplicate but me. |

Those are only the few I've posted since I set up the non-expiring account a few weeks ago. But even you should get the picture had you not been blind. Ta-DAAAAA... ....Dump.
