Jaguar - there is a really nice cheese shop off Marlybone High Street... wish I remembered the name, but it's right off the high street, not even up half a block... quite a nice place. I could spend HOURS in there.
I am fascinated by cheese - so many neat things you can do with it, but honestly, I can't stand the stuff... it's gross. I did have some really good cheese this summer - it's a french cow's milk cheese that has a rind coated in ash... very nice. The name escapes me, but i'd know it if I saw it.
The only cheese I truly like is mozzerella... fresh or low-moisture, skim milk variety. The saltier the better.
Wolf, I agree with you on the string cheese with the Simpsons characters... it's the only brand I buy right now because they are amusing.
