I posted these yesterday - early in the morning from Shenk's Express.
They have not showed up anywhere although the posts I made there this
morning have. I tried re-uploading them and got a nastygram about
duplicates. So, I'll copy & paste them through Tiny's -- then the will
show up from Shenk's as well. That's just the way Phydeaux works. Bv)=

One last effort - through Waldo's SESTAR. And I'm done if this doesn't
fly.

eBay has morphed from being a person to person auction site to being
just another internet merchant collective. I seldom even browse their
listings anymore.

I plugged "munster vs muenster cheese" into my Bing search engine. Wow.
Now I'm confused on a higher plane. Here's just one of the entries:

"Muenster or munster is a semi-soft cheese from the United States. It 
is thought to be an imitation of the Alsatian washed-rind Munster cheese, 
introduced by German immigrants. It is distinct from the processed dairy 
food Sweet Muenster Cheese. Its name is not related to the German cities 
of Munster in Westphalia or in Lower Saxony or the Irish province of 
Munster, but rather to the city of Munsterin in Alsace, which was part 
of Germany at the time the cheese was introduced in the US by German 
immigrants, but is currently in France."

When buying brick cheese I *always* leave that noted as "cheese food" 
or "pasteurized process" where found. 

I wish we still had a "Swiss Colony" shop here. It closed several years
ago and the location is currently Audi's Cafe & Gaming. Swiss Colony 
does have a catalog on-line.

They're more about candy, nuts and snack sausages than cheese though.
Classier grocers like Hy-Vee and Wegman's usually have a decent cheese
shop/department. As I told Shawn - I'll check with HyVee and Harvest 
Market cheese shops.

 JW> Goat's and sheep's cheeses tend to be strong smelling as well:

Much truth in that statement.

      Title: Detroit-Style Roquefort Burgers
 Categories: Beef, Cheese, Breads, Vegetables
      Yield: 4 Sandwiches
 
      1 lb Ground beef
    1/2 ts Worcestershire sauce
      1 ts Dried parsley
           Salt & black pepper
      1 c  Roquefort or other bleu
           - cheese; crumbled
      4    Kaiser rolls, split, heated
      4 sl Onion
      4    Lettuce leaves
      4 sl Tomato
 
  Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil
  the grate.
  
  Mix together the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce,
  parsley, and salt and pepper in a bowl, and divide the
  mixture into 4 portions. Make each portion into a ball,
  and form a pocket in each ball. Stuff the balls with about
  1/4 cup crumbled Roquefort cheese, and gently pat and
  flatten each ball into a bun-sized burger.
  
  Grill the burgers on the preheated grill until no longer
  pink in the middle, the cheese is melted, and the burgers
  show nice grill marks, 7 to 8 minutes per side.
  
  Serve burgers in heated kaiser rolls, with sliced onion,
  lettuce, and tomato on the side.
