Celebrating Christmas with cheesegeek

Hello, I’m Edward

Here is a photo of me getting excited about some cheese. This happens most days. Boy do I love cheese.

What is it that gets me so excited about cheese? 

First, it’s the taste. When you taste an amazing cheese for the first time, you just can’t help telling people about it. When you buy your favourite cheese, the anticipation of trying it is palpable, and then the joy of eating it is hard to beat.

Second, it’s the discovery. Cheese is one of the most wonderfully diverse, varied and quirky foods in the world. Discovering and trying new cheese is genuinely magical, particularly when you think that pretty much every single one started with the same four ingredients.

Third, it’s the feeling. The nostalgia. When you eat a piece of your favourite cheese, it brings back all the memories previously associated with that cheese. The people you were with, the places you were.

Much of that makes me not the cheesegeek, just a cheesegeek. And I guess if you are reading this, you or a loved one could well be a cheesegeek too
