Day nine....

The Worlds Smelliest Cheese

People often complain about the smell of cheese. Comparing it to feet amongst other things, but if your feet were to smell like this next cheese, I recommend seeing a doctor or cutting them off. Vieux Boulogne has been the worlds official smelliest cheese for about the past 5 years. Seeing of other competitors such as Epossies which itself is so smelly it is banned from being taken on public transport in France. This is a soft rind washed cheese, and it is thought it is the reaction of the beer it is washed with, that sets it apart. Lets just hope this never happens to you whilst at a diner party serving the aforementioned cheese....



But a rose by any other name... I don't think Shakespeare ever came across the Vieux Boulonge, but maybe Mrs Dory Previn had as in her song Play it Sam she most beautifully sings....
"A rose by any other name still has thorns du du du."
Go on have a listen....
