Yep, takes longer than white rice, but worth the wait.

If you say so. It has an astringent flavor that I don't care for. I
prefer white rice cooked without salt or butter. I'm always overruled
on that, so I usually eat it with salt and butter. Once in a while
we use sesame oil instead of butter. Either way, I often sprinkle
furikake on it.

Heck, I always thought it was just me who thought brown rice was astringent.
Nobody else ever said anything about it so I just thought it was my taste
buds and just shied away from brown rice.

Astringent? Maybe because of all the arsenic in American rice? I've
never had astringent brown rice.

Everybody's sensory equipment is different. Perhaps you are less sensitive
to that taste. Perhaps you enjoy it.

Astringent makes you pull a face if it's strong. Brown rice doesn't
have that at all for me. It's not that I enjoy it.

I also find some aged cheeses astringent. It took me a long while to
warm up to Gruyere.

I like several varieties of whole grain rice - but 'brown' rice isn't
one of them. Just can't get a good texture or flavour from it.
Riceberry is my favourite whole grain rice, and it also happens to be
the healthiest too.

And you still don't like blue vein cheese, IIRC. I haven't yet met a
cheese I didn't like.

I like both types of rice occasionally, but end up using white
jasmine rice most of the time. Nothing in it as all mostly, but
sometimes a very small amount of gravy if there's any on the table.

Have you ever had smoked blue cheese? I made a mistake about two years
ago and picked up the wrong package. To me, it was terrible.

No, I've never had it. It seems to me that they would be two overly
strong competing flavours. Is that why you didn't like it?

I had bought blue cheese many times before I made that mistake and I
immediately wondered what was wrong. I choked it down then looked at
the package and saw "smoked." It was just overwhelmingly bad to me and
now I'm REALLY careful to make sure I don't get it again.

This past weekend I wanted to buy a package of Provolone and all they
had was smoked. I've never had it smoked but the blue cheese came to
mind so I opted for Swiss. It was a good choice!

I've had a couple of smoked cheeses (not bleu cheese).
I didn't care much for them. Some smoked chilies are pretty good
with mexican foods. Some lightly smoked fish are good.

I do like smoked dead pig, if it's not overdone.

Not everything has to be smoked.

I've only ever had smoked Dutch cheese, which was ok. I know that I
don't like canned smoked fish very much. It's ok when I eat it, but
that smoky smells hangs around for hours.

I wouldn't add butter to the brown rice *while* it's cooking but that's
just me. Salt added to the water, yes. He's acting like he just
discovered something new. Oh wait, it is! Rice isn't part of his VSTD
meal! Did he give up on baked beans or garlic mashed potatoes as the base?

I draw the line a very low fat cottage cheese.

Yes, it becomes a bit of a non event.

Yes. He seems to think what's new to him is new to everyone else here.

I hope he bought American rice instead of that filthy communist rice.

If you eat Limburger cheese, you can eat raw sewage which smells better, and
youre tougher than me.
I bought some Limburger and amontillado once to impress a date. We didnt
eat the Limburger, and she avoided me thereafter. I blame the food.

It's one of those cheeses that taste better than they smell. So don't
dilly-dally but eat!

The only cheese that I couldn't take to. I bought some many years ago,
as I'd been wanting to try it. It was both runny and firm... and just
plain rank.

No! Ive smelled cattle that have been dead for a month that smelled
similar to Limburger. Has anyone here eaten durian, Limburger and month-old
carrion as a meal? Or merely two of those at the same time?
I thought not.

I've eaten durian. It was ok. Only problem was that the room smelled
of it for days after.

I saw it in the grocery store once and smelled it. I didn't buy
it. I've always wondered who was the very first person brave
enough to try it.

I had one experience with Limburger and that was enough. A friend was
eating cheeses from a Christmas basket. He cut off a piece and handed to
me saying to try it. As I popped it into my mouth he had a strange look
on his face. I asked him what was wrong. As soon as I spoke I realized
what the problem was. It was the stink of the cheese we could smell when
we spoke. It was horrible.

Sounds like just what we need these days, what with social distancing
and all.

As the B-52's sing:

Why don't you dance with me?
I'm not no Limburger

Clearly a Dutchman (don't call Limburgers Dutchmen to their face.)

That figures. May just be why the dutch are predisposed to butt
sniffing. A poor replacement for smelly cheese though.

Go forth, young Druce and sniff ass!

I would assume hungry people first tried it. Somebody's got to be
first, much like the discovery of using salt or spices to preserve
food.
