Cheeses for Christmas, what's your favourite?

Millers Damsel charcoal wafers are good too.

Seemed to be shortage of Brie here in Bristol Recently when I bought one at the back of a Aldi store shelf I realised it only had a 2 day time window so having had half will need to bin it

Stilton first, black bomber, a good cheddar, brie, Morbier, Comté and Gruyère and Caprice des Dieux.

I have never particularly associated any one cheese with Christmas. I just buy what I usually do, Danish blue, Camenbert, Brie and one or two good strong Danish cheeses for slicing.

Why bin it Gilly? Just tuck in quick. Very surprised that no one has mentioned Shropshire Blue, crumbly blue similar to a young Stilton.

Noooooo don't bin it- it's fine. Bake it if you wish, on toast or on pasta or rice. Those sbd are nonsensical.

Yes, out of date Brie could also be chopped up on pizza. It goes nice and runny.

It's probably better when it's past the bb date.

I can't remember the type of cheese I bought in Waitrose a few months ago, but I think it was Port Salut. The 'best before or use by' was a bit smudged but it was definitely well out of date.
I did complain but apparently this was the date it had been packed, not a best before or use by date.

Whatever the date, it tasted fine.

Creamy Lancashire with a lovely, rich piece of Christmas cake 😋

I quite like nettle cheese, a nice creamy white infused with nettles.

We like White Stilton- plain and without all the fancy apricots, cranberries in it. We love Brie,a good farmhouse Cheshire and of course Blue Stilton.
