Say Cheese

SAY CHEESE

A block of blue with some scrumptious salad veins.
White american melted over my toasted hot philly
and wizz creatively squirted on crackers entertain.
Stinky limburger a treat — a clothespin-nose silly.

Shredded, sliced or block —
I’ll hide cheese in my sock!

Cheddar logs, mild and sharp, on holiday platter,
I’d eat til sneak-Santa swaps for cookies and milk.
Boursin smoothed out over snackable treats and chatter.
When the kids go to bed - white wine and saanin silk.

Ooh the smooth and yummy
melt and grilled in my tummy!

A fondue pot with skewered vegetables and bread,
so gooey warm and stringy strung around my tongue.
Weighed out in ounces, yellow and white wed —
marbleized, or a brie wedge for the old or young.

Peeled and spread with
accoutrement blithe!

This was really fun Kim and I loved the white American on the philly line because that is the only cheese for a true Philadelphia cheesesteak.

Fondu pot! You must be WAYYYYY older than I thought you were, or maybe they have come back into style! It's a very cheesy poem, and now I wish I had not thrown my fondu pot out!

You certainly said them all Kim, my weakness is really strong sharp cheddar but will settle for any. Good luck. Tom.
