    because certain products actually get better with time like cheese.

    Under the right conditions. Sitting on grocery shelves is not one of those right conditions.

    • In rare cases white mold cheese will taste like blue mold cheese because of cross contamination, but that’s about the only defect I’ve experienced buying cheese close to their expiration dates. Oh, and camembert cheeses being a bit too runny and ammonia tasting, but as a sicko I kind of like that.

        I used to work at a cheese and wine joint, and there are some foul abominations out there. You’re a stinky cheese fella aren’t you?

            I’ve been coming around to blue cheese but that’s about as deep as I get.

            Idk if you got a mod pizza nearby but they’ve got kind of an odd BBQ chicken pizza that has Gorgonzola on it, and that thing is incredible. I never do chicken on pizza but that’s a quality exception.
