wholly agree. It's either rubbery or oily or what they <BR>> call
"healthy", which means it tastes like watery wood bark. How <BR>they <BR>>
manage that, is beyond me.<BR>> <BR><BR>Not all of it! You just don't
get to sample any real Vermont cheddar <BR>where you live. You have to
come here to buy it (I'd send it to you <BR>but it =would= be oily and rubbery
by the time it got there). <BR>Crumbles on your tongue, so sharp, so
good . . . </TT></DIV>

<DIV><TT>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 askingfor milk in my coffee instead of
that awful half-and-half. If you call that ambiguous brown liquid
'coffee'.</TT></DIV>

<DIV><TT>Now i'm ranting about American food. You do have good Chinese food,
that i garnt you.</TT></DIV>
