There's another: Höhlenkäse (= Cave Cheese)
Your mom's got cave cheese
This looks like a cheese that went to college and graduated summa cum latte.
Isn't that cheddar? Or whatever the european continent version is? The name of the cheese changes depending on whether they cover the cheese with cheesecloth, burlap, plastic/wax, or bared before leaving it in a cave? https://culturecheesemag.com/recipes/diy/age-appropriate-make-cheese-cave/ or https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2337837/The-cheese-cave-Damp-conditions-Welsh-countryside-ideal-place-store-maturing-cheddars.html
If I remember correctly, most of the modern aging processes try to mimic natural caves, since we just don't have enough of the real thing to age all of our cheese.
Pub cheese would like a word.
thanks. this might be it. I was thinking there was some sort of cheese with a name like this but I still feel there is at least one more.
Brothel cheese?
Sometimes, being able to read feels like a curse.
What makes you think it's the building naming the cheese and not the cheese naming the building? Why can't we live in roqueforts, in masdaams, in cheddars?
I was going to joke that Id prefer to live in a Jarlsberg, but when looking up Jarlsberg to spell it correctly I discovered its named for Jarlsberg Manor, which is (and this is true) a building
The more you know
Roquefort-sur-Soulzon would have taken its name from a fortress, too, so that counts.
You can live in Cheddar. Nice town, good hiking opportunities.
Or Gouda. For extra fun while you're there, pronounce Gouda the way it's typically said in English and watch the Dutchies flinch as little parts of their soul leave their bodies.
Wait, how is it supposed to be pronounced?

Here is how the Dutch say Gouda, with Van Gogh thrown in as a bonus.
phew. that's enough aggression for one day
GHOW-da is about the closest English approximation. The G sound is quite different in Dutch though.
We actually call it ‘Goudse kaas’, though. ‘Gouda’ is just the city of Gouda.
But not in a cheddar!
Maasdam and Gouda (among others) are towns.
But not buildings!
You know how we say that Mushrooms are the largest organisms on earth, because the Mycelium is interconnecting all through the forest and we only see the fruiting bodies?
Well, most reasonably modern towns have all their buildings connected by the fresh water and sewage pipes and possibly gas-pipes. I'll exclude electricity, because the cables don't really have a volume they enclose.
So you could argue that most towns in Europe are indeed a building.
Cheddar is a village in southern England
...and Maasdam is in the Netherlands
European cheese villages, unite!
So not even close to Cheddar? Why don't they call it Caputo instead.
I read some stuff and its not exactly clear why it's called that. it could possibly be how poor people living in the countryside would usually have access to fresh milk from having a cow, and the process to make cottage cheese is less refined, so a city dweller used to fancier cheese would consider the cheap cheese more befitting of someone who lives in a cottage
That doesn't make sense. Villagers know perfectly well how to make cheese and the cow is the most expensive part of the process. You add some acid to make the curd, add your starter culture from the sheep stomach, and have that rest for some time in a cool and dark space. After a while start salting it, if you have salt available.
Better than head cheese. Ewww
Better than dick cheese. Ewww.
There once was a surgeon named Keith, who circumcised men with his teeth. It was not for leisure, or sexual pleasure, but to get to the cheese underneath.
That GIF is hilarious
I presume you can use a lot of brick cheese to make a cottage cheese
All cheese is made by bacteria who live there, so it's pretty much a building to them!
So I hereby define every cheese by relationship to a building.
(I'm fun at parties.)
Little House on the Prairie Cheese.
Queso Casita
“I like cottage cheese. That is why I want to try other dwelling cheeses, too. How about studio apartment cheese? Mobile home cheese?"
Double-wide cheese.
I'd say that's definitely double-wide cheese.
Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
