MOTHERFUCKING CHEESE

[Don Coyote]

I also have made gcs with singles, sliced cheddar and what ever random fancy cheese is in the fridge.

They're sweet. Cheese shouldn't be sweet.

OBJECTION!



This stuff is delicious! I basically can't stop eating it.

The fuck is that?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

i like singles. they're somewhat of a novelty here.

My daughter buys them. Sometimes I eat them out of the fridge cold, with loathing and fascination. And then I feel a little dirty.

me too.
some times I wrap one around a cold hot dog

Ice-cold refreshing hot dogs

totally one of my culinary sins.

Listen, if you make a GCSandwich without those Kraft singles then...then what the hell are we fighting all these wars for?

What in the hell is America™ even for, if not those tiny, shiny miracles?

Pepper jack, btw, while tasty, is obviously food for communists and other unwashed people.

If I have to slice my own cheese, then why the FUCK did we even revolt from England?

I can't live like this.

I told you, they sell slices of real cheese. Look, even from your favorite junk cheese-substitute brand!

White stilton with mango and ginger.

It is incredibly sweet, an excellent dessert cheese, but also great melted over mushrooms on toast. Its also ridiculously expensive for cheese.

I've never encountered a sweet cheese. Then again I've never encountered a sweet fruit either.
Will have to ask around if others consider cheese singles sweet...

Your taste buds are broken. This is not cheese's fault.

That's actually incredibly unusual, and you might want to ask a doctor about it because it could signify something medically wrong that could be corrected. I've never heard of it before, but it's worth looking into. Normally, sweetness is the flavor that we are most sensitive to; our taste buds can react to a single molecule of sugar. It's a survival mechanism, because sugars are our essential fuel.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Do you ever use artificial sweeteners, by any chance?

The only other person I've ever heard of who can't taste sweet (or doesn't understand sweet) is the husband, and he's got hella brain damage. I second Nigel's suggestion of talking to a someone about it. There's a lot of whining forum posts about not tasting sweet, but here's the first actual article I found addressing taste disorders: http://www.nbcnews.com/health/taste-disorder-sweet-aint-sweet-1C6437326

Short version, they're a real thing and often caused by real things that it may be helpful to be aware of.

Can't stand artificial sweeteners.

I do find certain things sweet. Granulated sugar and Pepsi (but no other soda) are two that come to mind right away.
I can detect a richness to things like frosting on cake, but not a sweetness.

This is identical to the husband's thing. You didn't have scarlet fever as a kid, by any chance?

Has it always been this way, even as a child? Can you taste salty and bitter normally?

Nope.
Only bad thing I can remember having as a kid is a severe allergic reaction that I had to take some kind of steroid to get over it.

I think so, though I hadn't really thought about it until recently.
Can taste salty and bitter perfectly fine.

White stilton and apricot?

I had white stilton with strawberry once, you can get wensleydale and cranberry. Hell I once had wensleydale and belgian chocolate once. (that was pretty fucking sublime, i tell you) I might've imagined the cheese with blueberries, though... Oh, no.. Google tells me that that is a real thing! (wensleydale with sweet things is a british quirk, obvs)

I have some jerk seasoning and mango cheddar in the fridge.
