    In relation to cake and cheese: I'm not a huge fan of Christmas Cake, but yoy lot do realise that there's a world of opportunity to be had by pairing a sharp cheddar with something sweet, right?

    A personal favourite is Halva and Cheddar (thin equivalently-thick slices of each in a high fat laminate of deliciousness).

    When I've smoked a bit too much and am desperate for some sweet munchies I've been known to spread blocks of mature cheddar with nutella and omg, as I write this I don't know whether to drool or throw up at the thought.

    • apparently the closer to 50/50 combination of fat and sugar you get the less your body is able to tell you've had too much... we develop a sense for this overkingsteven
    • time that affects how we select food. it has been argued that legislation like the sugar tax should actually target foods that are closer to this ratio...kingsteven
    • glazed donuts and cheesecake are two examples. but i mean theres no way to regulate a cheese and nutella sandwich :Dkingsteven
    • throw a bit of salt or glutamate on there and, done. perhaps even... no. dare i say it? the breath of citrus - a light wafting of delicate lemon mist? *cumsNairn
    • Sorry, 'one twelfth hundredth and twelfth of a cup' of light lemon misting.Nairn
    • wensleydale is the correct cheese to have with a rich fruit cake.hans_glib
