  Not all of it!  You just don't get to sample any real Vermont cheddar 
  where you live.  You have to come here to buy it (I'd send it to you 
  but it =would= be oily and rubbery by the time it got there).  
  Crumbles on your tongue, so sharp, so good . . . 

I stand corrected. You are absolutely right. I can't stand American food, so when i was in the states a few months ago, i lived on clam-cheddar chowder for several days. Had to have some of your sawdust for breakfast, though. It was either that or greasy diner's breakfast, and you should have seen the looks they gave me just for asking for milk in my coffee instead of that awful half-and-half. If you call that ambiguous brown liquid 'coffee'.

Now i'm ranting about American food. You do have good Chinese food, that i garnt you.
