CHEESY. It’s said that it’s nothing more than milk’s rush toward immortality.
In fact, nobody really knows who ate the first piece of cheese. But Romans get points for introducing curd and whey to Europe.
And Europe remains market leader in cheese production. So much so, that throughout history cheese remains a perfect 10. In fact, Andrew Jackson once shared a 1,400-pound cheese wedge with his public. They rushed to eat it! Then declared a holiday.

CHEESY NOTES
CHEESY Ben Franklin also wrote if he could’ve found a recipe to make Italian cheese… It would’ve been a decade of discovery. In fact, cheese contributes to many of humankind’s feast or famine eating habits. Gorging when abundant. Then starving when there was none.
But it was trial and error that lead to cheese’s discovery. And of course, tasting cheese lead to it’s enjoy-ability. In fact just as cider preserved the apple, cheese preserved milk.
And although, France is the leading cheese consumer. Tiny Iceland consumes enough to come in second.
As for pizza, Americans consume that by the BILLIONS. Thus, exceeding every country in the world. Even Italy.
Of course, we enjoy cheese with many things besides pizza. Like crackers. Or wine. Also, hamburgers, vegetables, salads, tacos, and melting it in a creamy soup.
Because imagination only limits where you choose to put your cheese.
10 for 10 it’s melting on “stuff” around world. By blending traditional recipes. Then adding some kinda cheese.
