I agree with the OP. Some times it's awsome to find a new treasure at the department store/grocery store.
I'm sitting here eating salami sandwich (real lunch meat) drinking my Dad's Old Fashoned Cream Soda.
My day off is great. It could be better. Why couldn't they have ordered Root Beer.
Edit: The pepsi/coke thing is strnage though. I had a choice of Pepsi or Coke back in 1999.
Pepsi rocks. It's coke that sucks, but right now my cream soda beats all hands down. |

It's called 'extra mature' not extra sharp.
Don't get me wrong I love cheddar (it's a lovely little town too) especially hailing from the Westcountry but give me a nice brie any day.
Mmmm brie and bacon sandwiches. |

I agree with everything you said, except this. This is Dave's. You can't even say the sun is up without someone finding a way to be negative. |
Ummm...I'm pretty sure that the sun is NOT up, at least from my pov. In fact, the last time I checked, the sun was rising low on the horizonin the west. Why is it that people like you, always seem to get this basic fact wrong? I can't stand it when people like you write things on this site so obviously FALSE, get a life.
PS - Meeting next weekend for the stuff I brought back? Got your pm, how about a movie? |

I know it's called extra-mature, but I was talking to an American. I speak their lingo, see? It's just easier that way. Americans are easily confused........JOKING!  |

I disagree about pepsi being better than coke. But I occasionally buy pepsi b/c its way cheaper.
Where did you get cream soda? I'd love some right now.

I knew some Brit would rag on and on and on about cheddar being from England. That's why I worded the OP the way I did.
Excuse me for breathing. Which I try not to do in Korea.
Look, the stuff I found is labeled "Bega, since 1899."
In a red circle it says "Strong & Bitey - Aged Vintage natural cheddar cheese."
If you don't like, Limeys, take it up with the Aussies.
Leave me out of it.
Given that some of you were not raised in that vortex of sophistication, that mecca of cosmopolitanism called the United States of America, and it's faithful sidekick Canada, I gather that you may not be familiar with Saturday Night Live. Hence the pathetically ignorant swipes of some of the earlier posters, who will remain nameless.
If you wish to edify yourselves, here is a link worth perusing:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=0judbk9PP2k
It may help you gain insight into my OP.
The cast, for some of you who are cinematically deprived, includes .John Belush, Robert Klein, Jane Curtin, Garrett Morris, Dan Aykroyd, Laraine Newman, Bill Murray and Gilda Radner.
And they are not all American, so don't be too quick to sneer.
Of course, most of this post doesn't make a lick of sense to most of you since most of you do not read previous posts, and barely even read the subject title before writing a rebuttal. But I happen to like conversing with a brick wall.

Ha! Bega Aussie is the one "real" cheese I've found in three countries (Thailand, Taiwan, China).
Whether it's as good as British cheese or whatever, dunno. But "Strong & Bitey" cheddar is like the lord jesus himself, when living in the fringes. |

Must agree. The 'strong and bitey' Vega is good stuff. |

Wow! Life just got even better!
I just figured out a super cheap and super easy way to make a reasonably good imitation of Kahlua and Irish Cream! |
