We've been experimenting with this. It's sort of between creme frais
and American cream cheese in texture, and tastes just a bit cheesier than either. It's delicious on wheat thins or that crispy flatbread stuff that's so trendy lately. Other ideas that seem to work: A healthy dollop on a bowl of hot polenta Sweetened, with raspberries or blueberries Stirred into hot pasta, with grated parmesan. John |

John What first enticed you to buy this product? Sounds like an overpriced cream cheese. I'd probably try a sample but that would be the extent of it. |

John What first enticed you to buy this product? I read a review somewhere, then saw it in the little market in the village. Sounds like an overpriced cream cheese. It's a bit different, smoother and not so fatty, and with flavor. Why not enjoy life? I'd probably try a sample but that would be the extent of it. Then you may as well not try. Avoid the pistachio brittle, too. John |

John You *need* Mascarpone to make Tiramisu. Ever had real Italian cannoli? http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/re...ws/views/11512 It's something like cheese made from whipping cream ("triple cream", whatever that means), extreme BF content, so really good and really evil. There's no reason excellent Mascarpone could not be made in Wisconsin, IME the Brie from Quebec is as good or better than the typical French stuff.

Thirty miles west lies Monroe, WI, the only place in the continent were
Limburger is still produced and sold. You can go to Baumgartner's restaraunt on the square and get a slice of limburger and onion with mustard on toast (rye I believe). If you're not up for that (as cheezy as I am, I'm afraid I have to decline!), you can get a reuben or such. On your way out, grab some cheese -- we have a whole wedge of Edelweiss swiss that's to die for. Bought the last of their Edam, a great eating cheese. Definetly a stop if you're going through Wisconsin and want to check out some cheese. Tim -- Deep Fryer: A very philosophical monk. Website @ http://webpages.charter.net/dawill/tmoranwms "Michael A.

... Thirty miles west lies Monroe, WI, the only place in the continent were Limburger is still produced and sold. Rally! I'm amazed... we used to go threre when I was a kid, as my grandmother was quite fond of limburger cheese and would take it back with her (in a well-sealed cooler :-) ) to Florida. The place we got it from was an old farm house, and they still had plenty of dogs and cats running around the place -- we adopted one of the cats and had him for something like fifteen years before he died. |

Yes, I can walk enough to do the grocery shopping and such. The Grand Ole Opry in Nashville is the one thing I've always wanted to see. I've listen to it from the time I built my first kit. It was the official Boy Scout AM Radio kit, and I built it when I was in elementary school. It had a set of headphones so I could listen to it at night, after my parents went to bed without them knowing. :) -- Service to my country? Been there, Done that, and I've got my DD214 to prove it.
