why we can't go into wholefoods to "just see what they have"

"oh look, they have sample sizes of cheese..."
and so we ended up having an improntu cheese tasting
The results:
**** We both ranked the Drunken Goat at the top; it was mild,
rather soft, and not overly salty.
**** Banik's other favourite was the Pyrennes, which I also liked.
**** My other favourite was the Hoch Ybrig, which smells
questionable but tastes good.
*** The Aussie Jack is a good, versatile Jack that we might use
in other things.
*** The Cotswold has chives in it, and might be good in something.
* The Habanero Cheddar was mostly just hot and didn't taste
particularly awesome.
* The Sottocenere has a nasty rind, and although Banik is fine
the cheese itself with it I think it just tastes like mold.

The sourdough is good. Maybe we'll have to try making a starter again...
