Please stop talking about lovely, delicious, runny, smelly soft cheeses which have to be 'scraped up'. This is cruel and unusual punishment for me, labouring under my 'soft cheese ban'. I'm almost considering having some anyway and getting vertigo for several days - it may be worth it!
I used to keep my Camembert in a cupboard until it was practically a puddle, and a bit stinky. The thought of spreading it on a crumpet is making me drool. I don't think I'll look at this thread again; it's making me very jealous and sad!
(Seriously though, very good idea for a thread, and most interesting!)
