Not much of a cheese shop, is it?
Posted on May 22, 2010
At the deli counter in a nearby grocery store, I was ordering some cheese (white cheddar, on sale for $6.99/lb.) and a slack-jawed-yokel-ish couple queued up next to me.
“Wow, look at all this cheese,” said the male yokel.
“Wow,” the female yokel concurred. “They must have every kind of cheese here.”
After hearing that, I thought they must not be fans of Monty Python. While Monty Python’s “Cheese Shop” is famously known for it’s lack of cheese, standing in front of the deli counter, I saw it’s possible to go quite a way through the “Cheese Shop” list before coming up with a cheese this deli had in stock.
To be fair, the grocery store has different types of cheeses in different areas of the store. It’s possible to find cheeses such as feta, gouda, edam, etc. in other areas. It’s just that the deli counter only has about a dozen types of cheese, and only cheddar and swiss (emmental) are mentioned in the Monty Python sketch.
