A bit of whimsey!

I don’t have a lingering doubt That cheese is the gods’ gift to man. It compliments other fine foods Whether peppery, salty or bland. There’s gorgonzola and Stilton, Emmental, muenster and bleu, There’s limburger, feta and Jack, And hundreds of others, too. When it’s cold outside and windy There’s nothing as good for lunch As a sandwich of toasted cheese, Along with an apple for crunch I’d rather have crackers and cheese Than some kind of chips and goo. And instead of a sweet dessert Fruit and brie would nicely do!
