I considered posting this in Recipes or Aneristic Illusions, but I feel the theme is too apple-talky.

QuoteNews reports of a protracted fire in a tunnel involving Norway's beloved brunost (brown cheese) spread beyond the county of Nordland this week. In rather understated style, Kjell Bjorn Vinje of the public roads administration said: "I didn't know that brown cheese burns so well."
People have been talking about the brown cheese fire here for a week. Also, that is a magnificent quote!
My former housemate loved brown cheese and always had a block of it in the fridge.
It's delicious. And apparently a cheap substitute for firewood.

I'll have to remember that next time I go camping.
You know a fire is important, when it has it's own Wikipedia sub-entry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brunost#Tunnel_fire).

This is why we can't have nice things, you Belgian bastard. :tgrr:
IF YOU CAN'T KEEP YOUR CHEESE FROM COMBUSTING, YOU WON'T BE ALLOWED TO HAVE IT.

YOU CAN'T STOP ME!!!!
So is cheese officially considered to be terrorism now? Or does it only count if it happens in America?
Fuck the fire, tell me more of this "Fudge-cheese". Is that really an accurate summary? I'm Scottish and actually offended I've not heard of this yet.

The Norwegian Defence League dude that was arrested for bomb threats today didn't have any brown cheese on him, I think, so that would be in MURICA only. For now.

Not sure if this helps, but I'd be more than happy to smuggle some to England when I visit in April.
Pm'd!
Combustible cheese you say? How very right up my alley. Added to investigative to-do list.

Wait a fucking minute ... rewind ... you are a scot? How the fuck was I unaware of this? :argh!:
No idea man, must never have mentioned it.
And I have struck a deal for this delicacy with the good Waffles. It's made my fucking week.
So are you still in gods chosen country or did you manage to escape?
Currently North-West UK. Switch the Buckfast for Stella and it's eerie.
