I have a pathological hatred of that mushy, 'mild cheddar' that literally tastes of nothing. I think it's cheese for people who dont like cheese.

I like a strong, sharp cheddar with a bit of a crumbly texture.
Mild.
I prefer mozzarella, cheddar and emmental.
Always extra mature, there is no point eating anything else.
Has to be extra mature cheddar

Yes! Especially if it has that waxy appearance, and comes with a tangy like taste.

tbh I would really only have pesto and cheese,my friends like adding salad though to make it healthier x
I usually get my cheese from Sainsburys, who classify cheddar from 1 (mild) to 5 (extra mature), and whilst I like the taste of 5, I generally find it too crumbly to slice well, so I go for 4 as the best overall; but keep trying 5 now and again in the hope the texture's improved.


@ayyyy.x What, no poll? :sad:

I forgot that the poll feature existed on here😂. Sorry.
I mean cheese is cheese but if I had to choose then medium
Unpopular opinion but I actually hate cheese. Every kind

Why would you have it with pesto when pesto is already filled with it?

For me anyway,I don’t really taste anything in just pesto pasta,adding that extra bit of cheese really brings out the flavour x
I feel like I’m on a food review show😂
