i have literally gone cheese mad recently.
|
I went on a bit of a halloumi binge over Christmas. Not psychedelic in the least, but very nice anyway.
Could the psychedelic cheese thing be related to the idea that eating cheese before bed will give you weird dreams? That often happens to me. |

Yes, I believe so. I know that all cheese contains certain stimulants that enhance the hypnagogic stage (a friend did his Psychology BA dissertation on this subect), and generally speaking, eating anything before bedtime will increase the REM stage of sleep (because your body's processing things, it has more stimulation than during 'lay' times). But I read (somewhere, forgotten in a most convenient fashion) that because cheese is made in a related fashion to the process of putrefaction/ decay which makes mushrooms in nature, cheese, particularly of the Stilton types, where something non-milky is inserted as 'veins' into the cheese, can produce psychedelic elements. |

i do recall hearing something about certain cheese cultures that do that, i think there is something call ergot and it has a deriviative that can cuase hallucinations if taken in substantial amounts. we have a beer in australia that has it in it but it is shit beer and you would need to drink about 25 cartons |

I found out today that the first film to be censored in Britain was an advert for Stilton which showed the micro-biotic activity of it. We, the cheese appreciators, must stand up against our non-cheese loving opressors. For your cheese-appreciating interest.

i know it might ruin my credibilility for future posts in this thread, but i actually like those little babybel things... then again, i guess it has to do with the fact that i had a lot of babybel as a child... at lunch at school, when we were going to some excursions with school... well, yes, that's certainly the reason why. same with vache-qui-rit, a nostalgy thing, i suppose... tonight, i had some roquefort and camembert, and it was heavenly good... the wine wasn't crap either... |
Lysergic Acid is made from ergot. LSD was first snthesized during research on ergot.
I used to take Ergotamine (or something like that) for migraines years ago. It affects your blood vessels. I don't know if ergot is in cheese. |
I've had some very disappointing Boursin with garlic and herbs recently. It doesn't seem to pack quite the punch that it used to.
|
Just had a slice of Somerset Cricketer fom the fridge. Most pleasant.
|
Sometimes I live on string cheese.
|
Dude, why is Mozzarella not on the list??????

I refer my honorable friend to the answer I gave some time ago: http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/sho...27&postcount=5 Anyway, if you ever get the chance to eat white stilton with mango and papaya in, my advice is sieze that chance. |
Dutch are crazy about cheese.
|
Do you have a favourite cheese, king_buzzo?
It's a bit predictable, but Gouda is my favourite of the Dutch cheese. |
Not really. Maybe young goat chese or boursain (sp?) and some other one I dont know the name of.
|
Goat cheese is lovely, and under-appreciated by the masses. Welsh goats cheese is often very nice.
|
It is, young goat cheese is pretty cool with brown bread loafs.
|
...with a bit of finely-chopped red onion, or maybe some fresh coriander.
|
i'm soooo hungry
|
the goat cheese with garlic is the one of the few things I'll buy from Trader Joes. fucking tasty.
|
Bump
|
Cooke some orange peppers tonight, stuffed with lots of mozzerella, mushrooms and courgette. Mmmm.
A friend has given us some lovely sheep-milk cheese. |
blue cheese and brie
|
i really cant get into mozarella, it doesnt taste of anything and is really fattening. i like a good strong flavoured cheese.
i once had some cheddar with onion around the outside and it made my eyes water it was so strong. |
It's true that mozzerella tastes of almost nothing, but it becomes rather a tasty and pleasant thing when cooked.
|
i have started to worship at the altar of halume.
|
That's a sheep-milk thing, isn't it?
|
i am not sure, all i know is that its delicious and good in salads and with stir fries. really a big fan of salads with a warm ingrediant.
|
I have the rest of this goat cheese but no crackers to eat it with! Foul fate!
|

No problem. Put it on some slices of red pepper, sprinkle it with some black pepper or fresh herbs and grill it for a minute or two. |
I have none of that.
|
this thread has made me want to make mozzerella sticks.

Shame. What about tortillas? You could make a pretty impressive quesadilla with some good goats cheese, I reckon. |
i had a very nice buritto in san francisco with some lovely cheese in it. got it from some place on mission near where all the banks and stuff are.
|
Problem solved. One half of a sourdough roll with the inner fluff carved out. Tastey toughness with goat cheese goodness.
And I think I've been to that burrito place. Drunk. Of course, I could b wrong. Like I said, I was drunk. |
thats alright i was out of my mind anyway, seemed to fit in on mission.
|
Ah, the absolute pleasure of finding a burrito place in a wandering drunk stupor.
|
not as good as falafel or fish n chips haha.
