What does one do when you work in a cheese-overloaded environment, but you are supposed to be on a diet? This isn’t one of those questions that I’m posing for you so that in a few paragraphs from now I can provide some prophetic response that will save all of our waistlines. No, instead I [...]

At Taste of Cheese we sell a million kinds of cheese (ok, a slight exaggeration) but really, lots. And lots that are made with unpasteurized milk. I can safely say that I indulge in said danger-cheese all the time, and I’m still alive – aren’t I? In case you missed it, last week the Toronto [...]
