The piles of industrial Gouda cheese rolls look very photogenic but everything else than appetizingly... I remember having eaten very old and very good local Gouda when I was in Holland the last time, but that one didn't look so slick and shiny like these industrial ones. Normal Gouda (as well as Edamer) has the taste of rubber for me. Ok for little kids before they get their first real piece of cheese, like salty Gruy?re, Sbrinz or Roquefort When I lived in Germany, I remember almost all pizzas were made with Leerdammer, andother horrible rubber flavour, instead of Mozzarella. Once in a genuine italian pizzeria in Hamburg, I asked the pizzaiolo politely in german if I could have my pizza with Mozzarella instead. The guy answered in italian with a large smile, probably thinking that only a compatriot could have such an elaborated taste! Bon appetit! :-) Didier >Last Friday I took the day off to spend it with my daughter.
