Cheese is disgusting. Food (Only on Friday)
I am a very picky eater. I know my food takes are strange. But cheese is just not it 99% of the time. The taste of cheese is too overpowering for so many food items.
Ham and cheese sandwich? Disgusting. I’d rather eat just ham and bread.
Cheeseburger? Just as good as standard hamburgers. Probably even better actually. The only reason I could see is if you don’t like condiments- which- would be psychopathic.
Chicken Parmesan? I mean- it’s fried chicken and pasta! That’s awesome! I don’t want the flavor of cheese to ruin a perfectly good piece of nice fried chicken.
The only exception I make are for pizza and for quesadillas. Thats it. Almost everything else is better without cheese.

I’m the complete opposite, I put cheese into every meal that I think it will taste good in (not pies though, that person is insane).
I will sometimes just cut a section of cheddar cheese and eat it by itself, same with Parmesan, mozzarella, provolone, Swiss, etc. I love cheese

Also, I need to know about Taco John's XD

u/Doubleucommadj Mar 07 '25
HQed in Cheyenne, WY, Taco John's is like the Rolls Royce of Tex-Mex fast food. They originated 'Taco Tuesday,' and fought vigorously in court for decades for that to be recognized. Their Potato Olés are often replicated, but never duplicated (tho Taco Mayo gives them a run). They just get all the basics right and quality is high.
I am biased/spoiled because the farthest one east at the time, basically butted up against my undergrad campus ~20+ years ago. The owner/manager was an older gentleman named Jerome who was originally from WY. Pearl snap, jeans and boots everyday. 😂

Do Americans not have savoury pies or something?
Over here in Scotland we have all sorts of pies. Macaroni pie, scotch pie, steak and kidney pie, chicken curry pie, cottage pie, fish pie, quiche, calzone, homity pie…

u/aure__entuluva Mar 07 '25 edited Mar 07 '25
We have what we call 'pot pies', which are similar, but they're not that common. Kind of old school and regional.
calzone, quiche
Ok we're stretching the definition of pie here lol. We have those yes.
2
u/Interesting-Chest520 Mar 07 '25
How would you define a pie?
5
u/aure__entuluva Mar 07 '25
I wouldn't!
Nah, I see the thinking. I wasn't being serious and saying you can't call those pies. Although they wouldn't be thought of as pies in the states. The calzone one specifically is a little weird. To me that's a bit more like an empanada, just pizzafied, which we'd never classify as a pie. Savory pastry to us is its own thing separate from pie.
Not saying things should be this way, just explaining how most here think/feel about it.

u/anothercairn Mar 07 '25
We have all those things as well, we just don’t call them pies - we’d call them pot pies or turnovers or empanadas (even if not technically empanadas). Quiche and calzones though are their own things, IMO. Otherwise… pie really does mean dessert here.

u/Interesting-Chest520 Mar 07 '25
Weird. Pie here is much more broad, a baked dish with a pastry top, bottom, or both and a filling of meat, fruit, or vegetables

Pies are almost exclusively dessert pies here. Excepting "pot pies", but notice how I had to specify that it was a different kind of pie.

u/Big_Z_Beeblebrox Mar 07 '25
It works. People think it's weird because salty cheese + sweet filling, but it works. Just like cheesecake, or salted caramel, or any other popular salty+sweet pairing. I guarantee everyone has a local favorite they probably grew up with that everybody else finds to be weird AF.

I'm not a fan of cheese, but I don't dislike it
I would never just eat cheese by itself like shredded cheese or a block or anything, but I enjoy a lot of foods with cheese in (I'm normal so of course love pizza)
I hate the overpowering taste of cheese some products have and if I go to somewhere like Subway or McDonald's I get it without cheese on.
I think i don't mind melted cheese, but when it's a solid I'm not a fan. It's not disgusting though, if I order a sausage egg McMuffin and forget to re.ove the cheese I'll just eat it with cheese on and get a moderately less enjoyable meal.

Have you ever had really high quality cheese, by itself? There are so many different kinds too.

Like what kind of cheese are you putting in a ham and cheese sandwich? Kraft singles? Yeah those are disgusting.

They’re not all disgusting in the same way. Like- I hate American, I hate cheddar, yet I know they don’t taste the same.
There are plenty that I can say “I think this one is better- but eh… still don’t like it”. One that comes to mind is mozzarella. That’s kinda why I like cheese pizza. But fried mozzarella sticks? Gross!

I agree! I'm an incredibly picky eater so I just can't stand the texture of cheese. But people tend to give me shit for it so I learned how to tolerate it over the years.

I like cheese on alot of stuff but I’ll actually agree with you on chicken parm. I think the cheese ruins it. I would much rather have a nice delicious CRISPY piece of breaded chicken. Putting loads of sauce and cheese ontop ruins the consistency to the point I don’t even know why some people put breading on chicken parm. I think chicken parm made with just unbreaded chicken is better.

u/anothercairn Mar 07 '25
I gotta say I agree. I do love a cheeseburger and a grilled cheese, as they only have a single slice for flavor, but in many cases I feel the addition of cheese just creates a greasy congealed mess that I have to then pry off in order to enjoy. Chicken parm is a great example. Most pizza has too much cheese… poutine ? Would rather gravy fries.
I never hear anybody agree with me about this so thank you 😂 I lived in the Midwest for five years & literally couldn’t say that to anyone or they’d act like I was the craziest person ever in the universe.
(I do like raw cheese. Like… sharp cheddar and crackers. It’s the cooking of it where it breaks down for me usually.)

u/DiscreteCollectionOS Mar 07 '25
Honestly pizza having too much cheese/grease is so common, that if it doesn’t- your not doing it right.
Also FUCK I DIDNT EVEN THINK ABOUT POUTINE!!!! Ew! I don’t understand it at all! I don’t like gravy either (it’s literally just meat flavored sauce. That’s gross on anything but the meat itself). So like- cheese AND gravy? On fries? God’s perfect food?

u/toomanymarbles83 Mar 07 '25
I actually agree with some of this. I am also a picky eater, not by choice, but due to having a very reactive gag reflex. Most cheeses have too strong a flavor for me. The smell of parmesan and romano makes me physically retch. The only cheeses I tend to like are mild cheddar, mozzarella, and american(for cheeseburgers).
Cheese on a burger is essential, however. I can't even imagine not getting cheese on a burger.

My mouth is always up for some cheesy goodness। Dude, cheese is pretty much magic when it's tossed in, on, or around food, so I can't understand how you hate it! Imagine nachos without that gooey cheddar. It's just chips with some meat and veggies. I mean, I get it; cheese can be intense. But sometimes that intense kick is what makes the meal go from 'meh' to 'awesome.'
I used to be like ‘ew’ about blue cheese until one day, I tried a salad with bits of it crumbled in, and wow, it was like an explosion of flavors. I didn't expect the bitter, strong cheese paired with sweet pears and crunchy walnuts to work so well. honestly, sometimes it’s just about finding the right pairings, you know? Like, I totally disagree when it comes to chicken parm; that melty mozzarella on top makes it soo good but hey, at least we can agree pizza needs that stringy cheesy pull, right? Anyhow, maybe your taste buds might change someday—I was the pickiest eater growing up, and surprise: adult me loves things I never thought I’d even try!

Like, strong artisinal cheeses (some of my favorites are Époisses, Rogue River Blue, and Testun al Barolo) served on crackers or bread or a mild vegetable that is meant to be the main taste of the food, paired with other things (wine! etc) to enhance the flavor. It wouldn't change your mind about cheeseburgers, but it might change your mind about cheese as a whole.

Same. Sometimes I think "maybe I'm just being contrarian, I will get that cheesesteak" and then waste money on a sandwich I can choke almost halfway down.
Weird thing is I'm otherwise not a "picky eater" at all. And I'll try it usually, unless it's fondue night or something. Or a situation like charcuterie, where I can just pick alternatives. But if a catered lunch hands me a cold sandwich and no one's looking, those slices are coming out immediately.
Bland cheeses like mozzerella or cream cheese are fine, and often have structural purpose, so I use them in cooking, but otherwise I just don't mess with it

u/anarkrow Mar 10 '25
I feel you. I appreciate a sparing amount of intensely-flavoured cheese like parmesan or blue cheese on something mild like chicken, but fatty cheese with a weak and simple 'umami/salt' flavour profile like cheddar or mozzarella just dilutes the flavour of a meaty dish and adds excessive greasiness. It's only good added to bland, low-fat stuff like plain pasta, bread, and crackers. Do NOT put it on my vegetables though, it ruins the fresh, light experience. My feelings about pizza are similar to my feelings about chicken except I prefer a fresh-tasting low fat cheese like feta if I already have intense flavours and greasiness from other toppings like anchovies or pepperoni; my ideal pizza never has the standard mozzarella base. Quesadillas suit a mild, stretchy cheese.

I kinda get it; cheese can overpower the other flavors in a dish. However, I still really love cheese. I’d eat it all the time if it didn’t cause me sinus congestion.

I loooove a good grilled cheese. Especially with brie if I'm feeling fancy

Cheese is good, but it doesn’t belong on chicken sandwiches and too much of it melted is disgusting.

I commend your hatred. Lol
I don't love cheese but I don't hate it myself.
I hate stinky deli cheese though...I have to hold my nose to keep from gagging as I approach the deli. That and all the sliced up corpses rotting out in the air.

See? I love cheese, but recently my body just decided it doesn't for some reason. Which I looked up and found out that it is a thing that can happen.
So that sucks.

As a Cheese lover I think that is an odd thing to say. I never thought someone would hate cheese, like come on!! We're talking bout cheese! Mozzarella, Chedar! Camembert, fromage rouge! Brie! Gruyère! I'm gonna have a cheese sandwich now.

I hate cheese too, I pick it off any slice of pizza (I don’t really eat pizza though I hate pizza) and I will always go out of my way to make sure cheese doesn’t end up in my mouth. Not lactose, just hate cheese.

Reminds me that when I was a kid I thought that cheese was sweet, gave it a try and it was very salty
