Not much of a cheese shop is it?
Finest in the district!
Why does the x axis start at 5?

Ahh, thanks. Don’t know why I didn’t think to check the spacing of the rest of the numbers
Exponential instead of linear.
And where are they buying cheese? At my local Walmart four versions of Cheddar (mild, medium, sharp, and extra sharp) are all $4.22 per pound, less than the 5 minimum.
I would assume they are talking about the grade of cheddar that you can buy alongside fancy cheeses. Like, cheddar off a wheel
What’s muenster doing way up there? I never knew that.
It’s Munster on the list, a washed-rind cheese from France. Muenster cheese in America is probably somewhere down around a used Ford Focus.
Oooohhh
That explains also my second question, “Why is muenster misspelled.” Got it.
Oh wow, now I get it. I always wonder why there was relatively many references in American culture to a relatively little known French cheese.
But now I do!
Give a man a Roquefort, he can eat for day. Give a man a Ferrari SF90 Stradale, he can eat for a lifetime.
I don’t think it’s recommended that you eat a whole roquefort at once. The Ferrari even less so.
“Porsche isn’t worth its weight in cheese!”
[receives call] Hello. Oh. It is? Just barely beats Roquefort. Well, fact checking’s your job, Steve. Fine. [click]
“Roquefort is the Porsche of cheeses!”
If I were a graph, I would be this graph!
The world needs more charts that are as of the wall as this.
Oh I love this. I’m going to hit my coworker that loves showing off his car with “goat cheese is more expensive per/lb than your car!” Lol
What’s “goat cheese”? There’s dozens of kinds of goat cheese. If not more.
In the states there is a soft cream cheese like cheese simply called “goat’s cheese”, I am guessing that is the cheese to which they refer.
What in the chicken fried cheese curd is this semi log scale?
It’s not a log scale, it’s a wheel scale
A “I wanted to make my graph look this way so I chose this particular version of a log tranform” scale.
A bit cheesy if you ask me.
Damn, I didn’t notice that.
Above €55/kg for some roquefort, above €45/kg for the reblochon ! Oo
Now I kinda want a cat brand where all the cars are named after cheeses.
Edit: I meant car brand, but I’m leaving it because it’s funny.

Cat brand
Meow?
No way does Paneer cost more per pound than Cheddar. You can literally make it at home with a cheese cloth.
I make paneer at home, and I can confirm in the states it is very expensive. Usually $10/pound.
For funsies I calculated the Price per Pound for the M1A2 SEPv3 tank, which worked out to be about $163/lb. I guess it make sense that it’s at the super car range haha
Where do warships come in on the chart?
Once again using Wikipedia numbers for the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, with a cost of $5.5 billion in 2024 dollars and a displacement of 101,600 long ton (227584006.38 lbs), that works out to be $24.16 if my math is correct.
What a bargain!
Sucks if your recipe only calls for half a kilo though
munster cheese not getting political in this community mobile
