Ok,
As a relatively new Freeper, I haven't a clue to what CHEESE means.... yes, I know the stuff a person can eat. But there are the "Must like cheese" statements and the like. I did a search and there was no good explanation that I could find. Anyone caring to explain on this vanity post, please enlighten a new freeper.

Caribou-on-a-Stick? I prefer funnel cake!
Now we have Kwanzaa Caribou!
As she stood over the little block, scraping it with a sharp blade, she couldn't help but notice how much the little green curls reminded her of wood shavings.
She continued scraping away and soon, amidst the pile of forest green, an ivory white emerged, its brilliance filling the room like radiant sunlight would through high canopies of a tropical jungle.
Panting from her efforts, she stood back and allowed herself to absorb the rush which normally followed.
It was for this, and this reason only, that she let the mozzarella sit for so long in the fridge.
Ode to Cheese
Gerardo Casanova
Oh! Cheese...
You fatty one
Either cheddar, Blue or Swiss
Clog my arteries,
if you must
But still let me taste you,
Before it does
Oh! Cheese...
The spreading kind, On my cracker, bagel or Ritz
Either from ball, jar or can.
Hike up my cholesterol
if you must,
there will be no other unsaturated fat that I trust,
Oh! Cheese...
kill me if you want
I'll keep having you
any time I want.
Here is the Cheese of the Day for Sunday, October 28, 2001!
Cantal
The oldest of all French cheeses, dating back to the time of the Gauls.
The cheese is shaped like a cylinder, one foot in diameter.
There are two types of Cantal: Cantal fermier (farmhouse cheese, where raw milk is used), and Cantal laitier (the commercial, mass-produced version).
Milk is heated to 90 degrees F, and curdled with liquid rennet. Curd is cut into tiny pieces, and when the whey has been drawn off, curd is pressed and sliced, then molded. Cantal is cured for 3 months at 50 degrees F.
Wine Partners: Bordeaux
Fat Content: 43%

Caribou Cheese Funnel Cake
2 cups Flour
2 lbs. Caribou Cheese
1 teaspoon Baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
2 Eggs
1 1/2 cups Milk
Combine all ingredients. Heat cooking oil in deep skillet until
very hot. Put batter into funnel; be sure to cover spout with
one finger. Using caution, hold funnel over hot oil, release
some batter in circular motions, then crisscrossing motions, to
form one funnel cake. The funnel cake will rise quickly and
expand, so be careful how much batter you use until you get a
feel for cooking it. Cook to light golden brown on both sides,
then remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve while still warm.
