My favorite cheese? Do I have to pick just one? Feta, Brie (sp?), extra-sharp cheddar, real parmesan, gorgonzola. Can't stand any of the fake cheese food products out there. I refuse to eat American cheese. Don't see how anyone can eat it.

What is mince? Is that a drink?

Slightly off topic, but V is now available on DVD for anyone who might want watch it again. According to my yahoo page, it was on bestseller lists for a while.

I love gorgonzola :) (and I guess that it's impossible to made it using soy). I hope that with "real parmesan" you mean parmigiano reggiano :) (their latest TV spot features a cow who tries to join their farm http://www.topspot.it/spot/spot.asp?id=245). If you want to taste other italian cheese I can suggest pecorino or, even better, "formaggio di fossa"; It's a bit spicy (but if you like gorgonzola this should not be a problem :)) but it's great with a bit of honey. Can't stand any of the fake cheese food products out there. I refuse to eat American cheese. Don't see how anyone can eat it. I've been in the US and I was a bit disappointed by those cheese "blocks" (I was disappointed also by huge steaks that almost disappear when you put them inside the pot :)). -- Looking for a new screen-saver?

My wife is an on-again, off-again vegetarian, so we occasionally get to try out the latest "tofu surprise". Most of the soy products are okay if you use them as an ingredient in another dish. Soy milk is okay, as long as it's cold (don't use it in coffee or tea - blech!). Soy cheese is good, as long as you're not melting it.

I love chocolate soy milk. Tastes great. However, I've tapered off drinking it a bit. There was a study done by the university of Hawaii which indicated that people who consume soy regularly show accerlerated aging of the brain. I don't remember the study now, but you can probably google for it. I'm not a real reverend, I just play one on CP.
