This is my last post about V "cheese"
maybe.
I'm turning it over to the V-heads.
Just wanted to toot the horn for using squeeze Velveeta for Philly style cheesesteak sammies.

Our thoughts are with the family of the Secret Sevice agent who had to sample it on behalf of President Obama.

Hey Clack, it is available here in the local store ($8.99 a jar!) and I have it nearly every day for breakfast.

On the other hand i find the USA style of baked beans to be vile.
How could anybody eat that muck?

So I always look for the style "By appointment to Her Majesty" when I go over the bridge to Canada

Looks delicious....throw on a dozen jalapeno slices and you have food for the gods!

A question for you...you don't have to answer if you are afraid of ridicule by those "real cheese" bullies. Do you ever take that squeeze bottle of delicious Velveeta and just pump it directly into your mouth? I'm not afraid of bullies, so I will tell you that if I am in a hurry but need a quick snack, it is the perfect solution! All that goodness and nutrition in a couple of quick squeezes! Life is good!

Regards!

**Ex Finn.** · 03-08-2015, 07:23 AM

Add me to the list of people who has done that

edit: maybe we should conduct a poll...

To be serious for a moment, that's how I have it ... one slice of toast made savoury with it, another sweet with honey or raspberry/plum jam. :-)

Not me... I've never bought the stuff, being a "small dairy cheese snob".

Admitting you have a problem is the first step to recovery.

But honestly, Vermont Cheddar, never heard of it, Now Ontario Cheeses, Balderson and Armstrong are award winning cheeses with awards from all over the world. I used to live 5 miles from the Balderson Cheese factory. Once hooked you can never go back to processed industrial cheese products. There is nothing in the industrial cheese world, like squeaky curds.

Some addictions are worse than others. Some leave you wondering... "do i really want to be cured?"

And the only answer for me is "no, I rather have my cheese cured..."

And I like my cheese curd.

OTTOC, off the topic of cheese

Was the Midwest USA the only place where the sun came up about an hour later than normal this morning?
Could this be the start of the apocalypse?
Are we doomed?
Should I get off this darn computer and start taking pictures?

It says prepared, too. I guess to distinguish it from an unprepared cheese. What does a cheese do to get prepared? What is it preparing for?

It's the boy scout thing " be prepared."

Some people are just so into the boy scout philosophy of life.

So true. In the U.S., the Secret Service does the taste-tests. Here, we have Queen Bess do the honours. (I don't believe I've seen her logo on Vegemite though)

Nope. Same darned thing happened up here in the Arctic. Scary stuff. But it sure warms things up. We're at -29C right now instead of the normal -30 degrees.
