We aren't suggesting you make your own, mind.
- Best of the French Cheeses

and fat content of Canadian cheeses.
- CheeseNet
- Cheese Market News
- Cheese Reporter
- English Cheese: Farming UK
- English Cheese: Stilton The Official Site.
- English Cheese: Cheeses of England and Wales
The Kitchen helper site could look nicer, but when it comes
to information, it's concise and useful. After you are done reading
about the different types of English and Welsh cheese, click
on Cheeseboard, and scroll to the bottom, where you'll find
a number useful links to help furnish the accompaniments to the
cheese your cheese board. Things like uncommon fruits and herbs
(not only for your spreads, but also necessary for cheese omelets).
- French Cheese: The France Way
The site is not devoted to cheese, but has a nice
little section on the history of French cheese, along
with a few tips and recipes.
- French Cheese: The Best of the French Cheeses
This is a site that sells cheeses (also a cheese and
wine club). The main reason, however, for including it
here is that there's plenty to learn here about cheese.
See the cheese library with over 150 entries.
- French Cheese: The AOC's French Cheeses
This is another commercial site (and English too) setup
for the purpose of promoting French cheese and ALSO
letting the Brits know where to go buy the 40 AOL
certified cheeses. What's the AOC?
The AOC is a certifying body that attempts to guarantee
the highest quality of cheeses from France. There are
four criteria used, and these folks mean business!
Out of 500, only 40 are certified by AOC. !
So what's useful here?
Check out the three main categories of cheese
mild | medium | strong | and also see the
A-Z of French Cheese glossary which seems to
be made up of ten main topics including
cheese regions in France, and recipes.

If you click on one particular part of this site, let that be the
Cheese Chart, because from there, you can select a
cheese and then select either recipes, parings (what fruit, wine
or beer goes best with it), heritage, and nutritional (not always
correct because every brand of cheese has a different fat
content). It's still useful. Here's an example for Asiago.
Wisconsin Cheese Makers Assoc.
Ever had a really aged piece of Wisconsin cheddar. Were talking
three years or more. You should! It's really holds its own.
- Nutrient Content of Cheese PDF Document
- Calorie Content of Cheese

are.

and explanations. Has a nice section on
