The game revolved around the ever entertaining idea of progressive objects. Objects where the first letter of your object had to be the last letter of the previous object. All objects had to be things you might find in a kitchen. nothing could be repeated. And you got a bonus point for the team (team games are the best) if you could name a cheese. And if four cheeses were named in a row, everyone had to yell "QUAD CHEESE!" We did, in fact, get a quad cheese. Though I don't remember the four cheeses that made this happen. Indeed.

The smell of those cheeses alone are very unpleasant to me. The only ones I can think of that I don’t like are Brie…and anything with mold visibly growing on it (on purpose).

Of course, I heard in this tale that MikeD kept naming different cheeses for hours. I think I heard about this game…

But you should try real Emmentaler too, and Appenzeller. And Raclette is awesome to melt up on stuff. Mmmm cheese. Gruyere’s my favorite Swiss cheese.

I haven't yet figured out how to handle it. I haven't tried real parmesan yet... but I fear it will be unbearably delicious. It’s a strange thing being stuck between cheapness and quality food.
