To think that anyone who doesn't like cheese cake has dysfunctional taste buds?

[GiraffesAndDucksSayQuack]

It's just so lovely. Just in from work and having some raspberry cheese cake delicious.

It depends.

If it's dodgy Sara Lee defrosted cheese cake, YABU.

If it's a damn fine proper German type Kasekuchen, YANBU.

[MaryMotherOfCheeses]

OP YANBU

It's not natural to not like cheesecake.

DS doesn't like custard. I'm thinking of taking him to the doctor.

yabu if you're talking about fridge cheesecake but yanbu at all if you're talking about baked.

[BooBooChicken]

cheese? cake?

[Hassled]

YANBU. I have never eaten an unpleasant cheesecake. I don't care if it's Iceland shite or some baked vanilla thing - still bloody marvellous.

[IrishDraught]

YANBU. I only recently found out it was made from cheese though but still didn't put me off!

[draggedthrooabush]

lol Hassled I'm definately with you. Could eat any kind of cheesecake.

One of my close girlfriends had a group of 7 nursery mums and kids round for lunch last week and confessed during the mums coffee and gossip that she had once eaten a whole vanilla cheesecake to herself. There was a stunned silence and lots of "No ways!" Wished I'd been there to join in with the I could have done thats. She said they made her feel like 'a greedy dug!!!'

Moral of the story - only confess your greedy girl stories to close girl friends or be made to feel like a lepar in your ownhome.

I am a self confessed cheese cake snob!

I love proper cheesecake but not the crap imitation stuff. Frozen cheesecake is vile! Cheap own brand cheesecake has also tuned out to be vile.

The nicest one out of normal supermarkets (asda, tesco, sainsburys etc) that I have found is the New York style Taste the Difference plain or Raspberry swirl one! YUMMY! It's unbelievably delicious! I can happily eat the whole thing and have to force myself to stop

I've never had cheesecake.

[sheepgomeep]

I love cheese cake mmmmmmmmm

I cannot stand egg custard though, I actually heave at the thought of it and its not just because I'm pg

There is just something so wrong about it

[hanaboo]

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeww cheese cake...
its a cake with cheese... what is right with that?
each to their own though

[1dilemma]

love it

there are cheesecake cafe's in the States

[hatwoman]

ooooh if you like cheesecake can I recommend this? fantastic, incredibly easy, goes down a treat with guests. though I would say you need more base than in that recipe and that the base needs a bit more butter in it.

[1dilemma]

mmmm look lovely

[HigherThanAWombat]

I love baked cheese cake but I can't eat the base if it's made from digestives.I have to leave that part. Still it's the topping that really matters.

[Elemental]

I made a raspberry cheesecake brownie cake from the Hummingbird Bakery's book for DH's birthday party last month. It went down verrry well, and was luckily so huge we had loads to freeze so we were eating it for weeks. Mmmmmmmm.

[HigherThanAWombat]

That sounds incredible. I think I'll have to buy that book.

[MitchyInge]

I only clicked on this thread because I feel hungry

it hasn't really helped

can you make cheesecake out of chickpeas, eggs, palm hearts and that bit of slightly crusty mayonnaise on the fridge shelf?

[CarmenSanDiego]

There's one of these in my local shopping mall. Dozens of cheesecakes, with flavours like Toblerone, white chocolate raspberry and banana cream.

Also about 1600 calories per slice, but you can always fast for the rest of the day.. right? Right?

[thumbwitch]

Yes YABU. Although I love it, it isn't to everyone's taste because it is too thick, or they don't like dairy etc etc.

Now if you'd said chocolate, I would have completely agreed with you!

[Jacksmama]

I made THE BEST Red, White and Blue Cheesecake for my friend's birthday on July 4th... YUM!!!

Now I want some .

[muggglewump]

YANBU when it comes to good cheesecake. I don't even have a sweet tooth but I love it.

However, I was in a restaurant the other week and made the mistake of ordering a slice of butterscotch cheesecake for DD and I to share.

It was kinda like sour butterscotch jelly on an inch thick stale digestive base.
Even DD wouldn't eat it, and that means it was really, really bad. Hell I sometimes think that DD would eat shit if you put sugar on it. (I have not tested this theory)

I make a fantastic white chocolate cheesecake. It's a Simon Rimmer recipe and very rich but lovely. I do an uncooked cheesecake too, that I serve plain with fresh fruit and a sauce made from the same fruit. Some would say coulis but I won't as it's poncey and annoying to call fruit sauce that.
