Subject: Cheese World Cup Shortlist Thread

Did I spell that right?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parmigiano-Reggiano

yes, T H A T is the correct way to spell that.

Room for one more? I nominate Feta. Mmmmmmm.

Gouda maybe?

I would conducted a single malts WC but I'm not sure there are enough people here who'll know what they're talking about.

single malts... the individual chocolates in a bag of maltesers?

Brillat Savarin

You got to trust me on that one... it's a killer!

sorry minkee, but i had to bump cheese strings just to get feta in ! I've got 16 cheeses now, unlikely to get to 32...

Well could let us have a 2nd choice, or just fill up on all classics :)

32 cheeses would take forever though :)

Not to mention that I don't know where to get a 32 sided dice from - I think I can get a 16 sided one from a place in town...

Couldn't you do it electronically?

it would only be pseudo random then. it was that or 16 ping pong balls and a hairdryer, but i can't justify the expense.

I'm sure it doesn't matter if it is only pseudo random to be honest..not like it is critical :)

I would know :)

Fortunately, Random.org claim to have a number generator that is truly random. Frankly how they do this I don't care, even if I don't think they can.

So anyway, here is the draw...

Buffalo Mozzarella vs CHEDDAR
Feta vs Red Leicester
Manchego vs Haloumi
Wensleydale vs Double Gloucester
Gouda vs Stilton
Rochefort vs Dairylea Triangles
Edam vs Parmesan
Haloumi vs Brie

I'll kick off the first 4 on Wednesday evening I suppose, finishing on Sunday after the games end.

four of the six threads I made are usable. I'll finish these on Sunday after matches, and kick the next lot off then to finish on Wednesday.

Ok - these 4 are through.

Manchego
Wensleydale
Feta
Cheddar

The other polls end on Wednesday after matches. Then I'll start round 2 to end on Sunday, and then, well god knows really as I'm off on holiday for 2 weeks.
