On any food, or alone...just your favorite.
And a riddle...What's the only cheese thats made backwards (not one of the choices, so vote other if its your favorite)?

Edam  BTW, I love all kinds of cheese (especially French and Italian ones), but I voted for Brie - though without "La" before it!

Again we agree,  that Italians and French make the best cheeses (greeks come third tied with swiss)
Although living in Holland during the week for professional purposes, I can barely stand Dutch cheeses anymore (Gouda or Edam) , because this is the only kind you will find in shops as grated cheeese (except for the odd Pärmesan) and they tend to protect their production. 
In Belgium , we call them Kaaskop >> cheeseheads
As incredible as it may seem, all Italians having opened an Italian restaurant in The Netherlands have to put Gouda cheese (which they call Algmeene Gewoone Kaaas >> all purpose cheese) and spread it on Pizzas. They simply never have mozzarella (too expensive for Dutch wallets too) making it of course impossible for people to get mozzarela on a pizza since they do not stock it!!! 
if the restaurant does not put Gouda in the dishes, they simply get no customers in.

Hopefully the Mozzarella fans among you will have tasted real buffalo-milk mozzarella, which is made in southern Italy (mainly the area around Naples) and should not be kept in the fridge, but eaten as soon as it is bought. If you can get hold of some real buffalo mozzarella, do yourselves a favour and have some... You'll thank me afterwards!

Among non-psychoactive cheeses, and among the 365 french cheeses, my fav is the "Cantal" from the area of the same name.
They are 3 qualities: young, half young and old.
My fav is the young.

Suluguni (or, maybe, it's spelled "Sulughuni"?) -- a Georgian cheese.
Not the American Georgia. The Former Soviet Georgia, Sakartvelo.

I love Cantal, but preferrably the very mature.
Among the best sort of Cantal are the Salers or the Laguillole (where they make the knives)

No match for the French bluecheeses such as Roquefort, Bleu Des Causses or Italian Gorgonzola, once you tasted those, you will hate Danish blue cheese

How true... Gorgonzola (the sweet, creamy variety in particular) is out of this world - and if you can get it layered with Mascarpone (though your cholesterol level will shoot sky-high), you'll really in for a gastronomic treat of the first order  .
