to eat the BrieSkin?

[ClausIsTrulyReal]

Judt spent the evening with someone nambypambying about just eating the middly bit.

Wimps.

I eat it, always assumed it was just part of the Brie, surely if you are just eating the 'squidge' then it's a bit bland?

On that note, are you meant to eat the orangey bit from the Port Salut?

Im a bit funny with cheese, has to be melted. But brie find is the best thing ever!

I never thought you weren't supposed to eat it. Have I committed some kind of faux-pas? PatTheHammer I eat the orangey bit but now I'm starting to doubt myself.

I used to cut the orangey bit off, but then realised it doesn't actually taste so usually am too lazy to bother

I only recently discovered that you are in fact meant to eat the skin. I still don't do it though.

I once caught my DP eating the 'skin' of Edam (I.e. the red plastic)! It's def not edible!

What an utter waste to not eat the skin.

Right, I'm off the fridge.

I eat the foil off me dairylea triangle

Oof Captainsweatpants

My fillings are twanging just thinking about that!!

I want cheese now.

I've finished my Brie it had black pepper rubbed into the skin and was fanfuckingtastic.

If people choose to peel the skin, they should cut themselves a triangular piece from the main cheese first. It is a breach of ettiquette to slice squidgy cheese in any other way, as the centre is the most delicious bit and so no-one should take too much of it. might have been given a book on manners for my Christmas

Any cheese with a plastic skin isn't really proper cheese.

Never even considered that Brie even had 'skin' - it's part and parcel of the cheese!

Do you shit glitter Captain ?

I normally have French Brie - is that known for having an 'up your nose' type of pungency?

Maybe I'm just a cheese wimp: I can only have Stilton with digestive biscuits (preferably the Hovis ones at that).

I love making Edam 'skin' sculptures! I bet they don't teach that at Rodean!

Off topic but a buttered weetabix always goes down well here too!!

Never noticed anyone not eat the skin! It's all good!

I never know whether to peel a chorizo.

I do nombre but I don't think its the norm!

Cwtches

Cwtch fawr nombre!

i didn't know people DIDN'T eat the skin. I eat the skin on Camembert too

The skin is the very, very best bit. You all know it's fully populated with cheese mites though, yes?

Clara ds2 and I had baked camembert for lunch, complete with skin. It was bloody gorgeous!

I worked in a cafe as a student and one of the other waitresses there told me the smell hot Brie reminded her of semen. That's not the word she used but you get the gist. Obviously the personal hygiene of her then boyfriend was probably suspect but I have never been able to eat it since.
