I love cheese,but whenever I go to buy some in France I always seem to go
for the same ones.Im always faced with a huge choice on the cheese counter
and would like to hear from others as to what is a good cheese to try for a change

We watched the locals buying cheese from the big supermarkets and saw them buy this one, so we bought it and loved it.

Nothing wrong with a nice chunk of white as white LANCASHIRE! (y)(y) Proper cheese, not like that runny French muck. And what better to go with it then a nice new Warburtons Loaf. You know, this country came tops in the cheesemakers guide to better fromage for the last five years on the trot.(y)
And what better place to enjoy your cheese then Skegness?? :)

Don't go for "under plastic" ones . Go to a big supermarket and ask for "un petit échantillon de goûts, S'il vous plait!" (write it down if necessary). Buy a nice crunchy baguette, and have an only cheese meal... with a local red wine (as I always say to my English visitors: the top of the bottle must have the word "récoltant" on it, not numbers.)...Enjoy!

Fromagement

"un petit échantillon de goûts, S'il vous plait!"
DONT FALL FOR THAT!! :Eeek::Eeek: It translates to 'Your FILTHY Cannonball cheese smells like your wife's (husbands) bottom, if you please'
You should simplly walk into your favorite French purvryor of curdled milk products and say.............



"Donnez-moi votre argent maintenant , ou je vais violer vos magasins chat" You will get instant and courteous attention. (y)

RĂ©coltant means "picker" . Having this on top means there is no one between the picker and the shop selling his wine, no one making money that you are going to pay each time you buy a bottle. So good wine for a better price;
Numbers.... you don't know how many people were involved from the moment the picker sold his bottled wine, to the moment you'll buy the bottle. It doesn't mean the wine is not good, just that you are paying a lot more for it. Quality doesn't need to be pricey!

Struggle to get them in France though,:):)
Take some with you! It travels really well, unlike that slop you can buy there. I mean, a nice piece of Cheddar will emerge from your receptacle, or even your trouser pocket, a tad sweaty, but still in one lump. Cannonball however, well, to transport it means poring it into an old wellie, which may in fact improve it's flavour. (y)

In a French market find the person selling their home produced goats cheese. Never buy the stuff in a supermarket reputed to be goats cheese!

Thank you. Sorry about that, I thought I was on Motorhome *FUN* :(

Missus Tootles should send you to the naughty corner now and then! VIOLER
She cant at the moment, she's eating a nice bit of LANCASHIRE on a Jacobs Cracker.......you know, one of those things you CANT BUY in France, along with pies, decent bacon, Walls Sausage, and real cheese.......(y)
"I" and only "I" know what you meant, but had you said this in a supermarket... you would have no more balls I'm telling you.
Having witnessed many times the 'balls' of the average French Soldier, I can tell you that mine would still be intact. (y) The supermarket staff would (probably) be following the average French practice of running away. :)
