Hope you are having a good…Read more

OMG that is one of my favorites!!! Have you ever tried LeTur? It is a mixed milk cheese that is made similarly to Delice.

I also make a triple cream cheese like Delice. Ours is made a bit more similarly to Brie though.

I’m just tired of the status quo. Also, even though fancy food is delicious, it is a bit of a vapid world TBH. It is a constant hustle to attract attention of customers, keep the attention of possible customers, and continue to deal with an increasingly crowded low margin/high effort market.

That, and the rise of fascism.…Read more
