Where is the cabin cheese? The fourth-floor-walkup cheese? Give me the fancy mansion cheese. Or skyscraper cheese, ooh la la.
Leave the bathhouse cheese alone, though
My dumbass brain just thought that's not true, there is "Hüttenkäse" in German... Which is cottage cheese. 🤦🏼♂️
All cheese is made by bacteria who live there, so it's pretty much a building to them!
So I hereby define every cheese by relationship to a building.
(I'm fun at parties.)
Pub cheese would like a word.
thanks. this might be it. I was thinking there was some sort of cheese with a name like this but I still feel there is at least one more.
Brothel cheese?
Sometimes, being able to read feels like a curse.
There's another: Höhlenkäse (= Cave Cheese)
Your mom's got cave cheese
Lmao gotten!
Isn't that cheddar? Or whatever the european continent version is? The name of the cheese changes depending on whether they cover the cheese with cheesecloth, burlap, plastic/wax, or bared before leaving it in a cave? https://culturecheesemag.com/recipes/diy/age-appropriate-make-cheese-cave/ or https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2337837/The-cheese-cave-Damp-conditions-Welsh-countryside-ideal-place-store-maturing-cheddars.html
If I remember correctly, most of the modern aging processes try to mimic natural caves, since we just don't have enough of the real thing to age all of our cheese.
What makes you think it's the building naming the cheese and not the cheese naming the building? Why can't we live in roqueforts, in masdaams, in cheddars?
I live in The Tower of BabyBelon
😌👌
Bad news about the tower, guys... :-/
Wake me up when they hit the 2nd Tower
I was going to joke that Id prefer to live in a Jarlsberg, but when looking up Jarlsberg to spell it correctly I discovered its named for Jarlsberg Manor, which is (and this is true) a building
The more you know
Roquefort-sur-Soulzon would have taken its name from a fortress, too, so that counts.
You can live in Cheddar. Nice town, good hiking opportunities.
Or Gouda. For extra fun while you're there, pronounce Gouda the way it's typically said in English and watch the Dutchies flinch as little parts of their soul leave their bodies.
if you do it you legally have to buy one cheese wheel at the cheese auction there
Wait, how is it supposed to be pronounced?
GHOW-da is about the closest English approximation. The G sound is quite different in Dutch though.

Here is how the Dutch say Gouda, with Van Gogh thrown in as a bonus.
phew. that's enough aggression for one day
Cheddar is a village in southern England
...and Maasdam is in the Netherlands
European cheese villages, unite!
I think it would be easier to list the French cheeses that are NOT named after a place.
“I like cottage cheese. That is why I want to try other dwelling cheeses, too. How about studio apartment cheese? Mobile home cheese?"
Double-wide cheese.
I'd say that's definitely double-wide cheese.
I want condo cheese
Don't look up what that means in Nepali.
So not even close to Cheddar? Why don't they call it Caputo instead.
Queso Casita
I read some stuff and its not exactly clear why it's called that. it could possibly be how poor people living in the countryside would usually have access to fresh milk from having a cow, and the process to make cottage cheese is less refined, so a city dweller used to fancier cheese would consider the cheap cheese more befitting of someone who lives in a cottage
That doesn't make sense. Villagers know perfectly well how to make cheese and the cow is the most expensive part of the process. You add some acid to make the curd, add your starter culture from the sheep stomach, and have that rest for some time in a cool and dark space. After a while start salting it, if you have salt available.
I presume you can use a lot of brick cheese to make a cottage cheese
Better than head cheese. Ewww
Cottage cheese made in a cottage
Toe cheese ...
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
