A piece of Taleggio cheese

CHEESE Wisconsin is the Cheese Capitol of the USA There you can find cheese ever on display And of this wonderful thing called cheese There is a type for everyone if you please There's Cheese Grits, and Nacho Cheese Muenster, Guta, and Cantonese Goats and cows milk both are used Making it easy to become confused Even sheep and camels get in on the act Their milk is used for cheese -- that's a fact Cheese is a staple familiar to all It comes in slices or rolled up in a ball There's Parmagiano-Reggiano, Gouda and Brie And smelly Limburger, you may want to try Roquefort, Camembert, Cotija and Chevre Monterey Jack and Mozzarella Emmental, Taleggio, and Feta The list goes on, and the Cheese gets better But I'm only allowed to post twenty lines So you'll have to Google for more flavors to find 10 November 2018 For the contest sponsored by Barry Stebbings

You've piqued my curiosity with that intriguing last line, but also enjoyed the other nineteen as well!

That line is easily explained. I Googled cheese flavors and got a list of different cheeses. The the contest sponsor stipulated we could submit no more than twenty lines. I was at the end of the poem and the limit in lines. So, being the guru of goofiness, I indicated that if anyone wants to know more about cheese than just by reading my poem they will have to Google it.

oh what a tasty treat you served up Curtis and you gave me many memories as I've not had Taleggio since I worked as a private nanny in London, its not a cheese I've seen on our little Island. I must try and get some one day!:-) hugs Jan xx

Brilliant verse Curtis, I'm a lover of very strong cheese, the stronger the better. Good luck. Tom.

Thank you so much, Tom. If I should go to the fridge and not find cheese I would have to be taken to the emergency room suffering from withdrawal symptoms. lol On a different note, I still get mail regarding the tribute you wrote to me on 75th birthday. I responded to you on Soup Mail thanking you and some people think that I did not thank you at all since they didn't see a response from me. So, I may have to 'back track'!
