      @@LauraLouLou In my experience, nothing THAT expensive ever tastes THAT expensive. Truffles, caviar, saffron, whiskey, vinegar, etc etc. NEVER. Some shallow minded people romanticize the notion of the privilege that comes with eating (or drinking) something so few people can afford.

      @@JohnSmith-il4wi Not everyone who experiences things (especially taste) differently than you do is "small minded". There are nuances in flavors from things like coffee, wine and cheese down to even chocolate. When you drink wine for the first time, if you drink cheap wine or expensive wine, you probably don't like it. It's an acquired taste (I think, oftentimes, it just comes with age and experience, maybe the novelty of everything else you've eaten has worn off and you're ready to expand your horizons 😄), and once you've acquired that taste, you can absolutely tell the difference between good wine and bad wine (and good doesn't necessarily equate to expensive, and not all expensive wines are good). I used to hate whiskey. I still hate Southern Comfort and Jack Daniels, but if you give me a glass of proper, aged whiskey, I can appreciate, if not enjoy, its complexity. Again, not all of this equates to extreme privilege. I'm not sitting here drink $50 bottles of wine in my spare time. Just because you haven't cared to develop a taste or appreciation for these things doesn't mean the enjoyment of them is all in someone's head because they are "expensive" (which, again, is relative). If you're fine with not experiencing that the way other people do, good for you, but it's not a reason to insult anyone.

    I’m 63. My Eastern European grandmother hung cheese curds, however she suspended the cheesecloth-filled curb bag from the old-style faucet in her kitchen sink. Mother said it had the texture of cottage cheese - like yours - but it was different and so much better; like nothing she’d had after leaving home in 1940. I cannot wait to make this recipe for myself to experience what Mother had so many decades before i was born! Thank you for pointing me in the right direction to do this; I am eager to make cheese for my husband - who adored my mother - and me. God bless you and your staff. PLEASE, keep up the good work.

      They are black truffles, still a very nice ingredient, expensive but in reach for most people. The real star would be white truffles. There is also a big difference between winter and summer truffles. Most people will have no clue how these actually taste as most commercial products contain aromas to approximate this flavour or they are there in a very small quantity. Never cook a truffle, it loses all of it's taste. It's meant to be eaten fresh. Source: I live in the Provence That cheese sure does look promising :D
