Blue Cheese is the IPA of cheese. It has a lot of “flavor” which makes you think it’s “good” but… is it? It’s good, but not slap-your-own-mother amazingly life changing. I used to love it, but got tired of being punched in the face, and started to appreciate subtlety way more. Same with beers. I still like an IPA occasionally, if it’s of a higher quality, not just WE FUCKED ONE MILLION HOPS INTO THIS. It’s the same bullshit with “truffles”. Not really that good, thrown onto cheap garbage food to mark it up by $10. Again, the good, real truffles, are actually quite nice (and hard to come by for obvious reasons).
I don't find blue cheese so strong. Some are, and they can become too strong if they are a bit old, but they can also be very delicate. There are also way stronger and more in your face cheese than blue cheese.
Totally agree. Not to mention that blue cheese is typically eaten in small quantities
I respect your opinion but I hate that you've done this to me. I hate IPA (mainly because it's fucking everywhere now) but love blue cheese.
I think you don’t have proper cheese available.
IPA is a great comparison (and I hate how "IPA" has become synonymous with "beer"). I like blue cheese, but I agree it can quickly overwhelm. I prefer to go easy with it in recipes. For salad dressings I prefer the ones that are toned down a bit.
