Who cut the cheese? [closed]

Question

UPDATE: JNat will be sending out emails to collect addresses from the lucky users getting a cheese board — be on the lookout for those! :)

We've moved quite a bit of stuff around this year, and you've been mostly patient with us while we overhauled our information architecture. This was no trivial needs more pop and a lens flare type of undertaking, we moved a significant amount of cheese.

To kick off our fall anniversary series of celebrations, we'd like to offer our thanks to everyone that put up with us. We'd especially like to thank those of you who went out of your way to try and be constructive, even when you weren't happy about the changes we had to make.

We were going to do this sooner, but we had to find a really cheesy way to go about it, and not much is cheesier than a cheese board except the cheese one might carve while using it.

If you want one of these engraved with "Cheese Overflow 2018":

... then you need to regale us with tales of cheese. Or, tails of cheese, if you make mice out of Maasdam. Cheese, Louise, you could even write a song. You must submit creative artifacts where the primary theme is cheese, where puns are strongly encouraged.

You could:

• Make a sculpture out of cheese.
• Write a cheesy story.
• Write a song about cheese, perhaps a Munster mash for upcoming holidays?
• Design a completely edible replacement for your favorite review queue.
• Make a brie-f case to hold your important papers.

... you get the drift. The top 25 entries, as calculated by net upvotes received (not aggregate score, down-voting won't help you win!) will receive this cheesy package. Whatever it is, you have to be able to submit it as an answer to this question. Links to videos are accepted, however they must be of your own creation and the video must remain available. If either stops being true, your submission will be removed.

That's right. Text, images, crayons on newspaper, LEGO, popsicle sticks - it only has to be cheesy as a major component. If we have to explain that more technically, it's not going to be fun anymore :P

The Rules

1. You can post as many entries as you want in good faith as long as they are in line with our terms of service, acceptable use policy and code of conduct. This is also a reminder that all user-contributed content falls under our CC-BY-SA 3.0 license.

2. Contest is open from 2018-10-09 to 2018-11-09, final entry must be received at or prior to 23:59:59 UTC on the last day. Contest will then be locked for historical reference.

3. Employees are eligible. Jay, this means that you've gotta get cheesy in order to get a cheese board.

4. You must be a user in good standing on Meta Stack Exchange during the entirety of the contest, or your entry may be disqualified. Let's have some good, clean fun.

5. Winners will be notified via email within 10 days of the contest closing. As we will be ordering these based on demand (they're not cheap!), you'll need to allow approximately 30 days for delivery. You'll need to provide us your shipping information privately, in accordance with our privacy policy.

6. If you win but don't care for cheese, we'll give you a selection of other items of approximate value. We want you to enjoy the prize.

7. Void where contests or cheese is prohibited.

Now let's get cheesy!

Answer 1

Well, I am generally researching X-ray tomography. I went to the lab to ask them if I could put a cheese in one of the machines, but they are not cool with it....

So I simulated an X-ray machine on the cheese and reconstructed the result for better analysis. I used MATLAB and the TIGRE toolbox*.

Cheese generation:

%% Create cheese

% First we create a filled cheese
imageSize= 512;
[columnsInImage rowsInImage] = meshgrid(1:imageSize, 1:imageSize);
% Next create the circle in the image.
centerX = 50;
centerY = 50;
radius = 400;
maincheese = (rowsInImage - centerY).^2 ...
    + (columnsInImage - centerX).^2 <= radius.^2;

maincheese(1:100,:)=0;
maincheese(:,1:100)=0;

fullcheese=zeros(imageSize,imageSize,imageSize,'single');

fullcheese(:,:,50:430)=repmat(maincheese,1,1,430-50+1);

clear columnsInImage rowsInImage

Now let's make it Swiss. We like manchego, but do we like it more than Swiss? No.

nholes=100;
[x,y,z]=meshgrid(1:imageSize, 1:imageSize,1:imageSize);
holecenters=randi(imageSize,3,nholes);
holesizes=rand(1,nholes)*50;
holes=false(size(x));
for ii=1:nholes
holes=holes|((x - holecenters(1,ii)).^2 ...
    + (y -  holecenters(2,ii)).^2 ...
    + (z -  holecenters(3,ii)).^2 <= holesizes(ii).^2);
end
fullcheese(holes)=0;

Then I generated X-ray projections from a circular trajectory

%% Define Geometry
%
% VARIABLE                                   DESCRIPTION                    UNITS
geo.DSD = 1536;                             % Distance Source Detector      (mm)
geo.DSO = 1000;                             % Distance Source Origin        (mm)
% Detector parameters

% Image parameters
geo.nVoxel=[128;128;128]*2;                   % number of voxels              (vx)
geo.sVoxel=[256;256;256]/2;                   % total size of the image       (mm)
geo.dVoxel=geo.sVoxel./geo.nVoxel;          % size of each voxel            (mm)



geo.nDetector=[192;  128];                    % number of pixels              (px)
geo.dDetector=[3; 3];                     % size of each pixel            (mm)
geo.sDetector=geo.nDetector.*geo.dDetector; % total size of the detector    (mm)


% Auxiliary
geo.accuracy=0.5;                           % Accuracy of FWD proj          (vx/sample)
geo.mode='cone';                         % Accuracy of FWD proj          (vx/sample)

nangles=180;
angles=linspace(0,2*pi-2*pi/nangles,nangles)-pi;
projections=Ax(fullcheese,geo,angles,'interpolated');

And finally I reconstructed it using two different mathematical methods, just for better cheese-analysis.

fdkcheese=FDK(projections, geo, angles);
ossartcheese=OS_SART(projections, geo, angles, 50);

Resulting in this deep insight on how cheese is, with non-destructive testing. (The image shows slices of cheese.)

plotImg([sartcheese, fdktest], 'dim', 3, 'savegif', 'cheeses.gif')

Now you can know how to cut the cheese so everyone gets equal amount of holes, before even cutting!

*Disclaimer: I programmed the TIGRE toolbox and am not trying to promote it. I just know how to make cheese fast with it.

Answer 2

Well, it's gouda you guys to do this, but I'm sure that it will grate on quite a few people. I would proceed very caerphilly with this proposal. Or, on the other hand you could just sit back and have morbier and watch the curds fly.

I would like to offer this advice, because if this really blows up, all that will be left is de brie, and nobody wants that. Just sit back, put on some nice rhythm and bleu's, pick a snack that you are fondue of, except for that one because that one is nacho cheese. On the other hand, eat it because wotsit matter anyway?

Consider the feta of most posts in this salvo, and vote appropriately. Appreciate the sharp wit, be mild with the newbies, and get yourself out of the daily rind for a while. If you must completely retreat, I recommend creating a moatsarella around your house, then stand on your roof shouting "How dairy you?!?".

Once everything is ova, stop throwing stones because the roquefort's back on occasion. Get the beavers out of the moat and break apart their edam. Think about what you've done that might curdle others' toes, and stop being so curd in your speech. Try to be a bit more cultured, but not necessarily Stiltoned, follow the roules, and try to avoid a meltdown.

A few final thoughts - If you want to be clever, use mascapone and go as a horse for Halloween (Make sure you get a tunworth of candy). Avoid angering the Hallouminati, and always act mature.

Answer 3

How about some StackExcheese? Modeled in Blender rendered with Cycles with fully procedural textures (no images harmed during the rendering of this 3D model).

In the Portuguese language there is a common traditional saying that eating a lot of cheese makes you forgetful, so stick around and restore some knowledge from the vast sea of Q&A sites.

I do love me some cheese though; my favorites are Halloumi, Ricotta, Edam, Mozzarella and Feta.

Answer 4

Here's me talking about cheese AND cheese boards over a year ago to a user named @CHEESE. Destiny much?

Answer 5

I've moved some cheese!

Answer 6

Stop Moving My Cheese

Run this stack snippet and try to get the cheese with your cursor.

var showAlert = true;
$('#cheese').on('mouseenter',function(e){
    $(this).animate({
        'left': getRandomInt(0, $(window).width() - $(this).width()),
        'top': getRandomInt(0, $(window).height() - $(this).height())
    }, 500);
    showAlert = true;
});

$('#cheese').on('click', function(e) {
  if (showAlert) {
    alert("Got the cheese!");
    showAlert = false;
  }
  
});
function getRandomInt(min, max) {
    return Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1));
}

html {
  cursor: grab;

Answer 7

tl;dr - just watch the video - I'm a big fan of the ending! Cheese Overflow (not at all deliberate...)

I once entertained* my girlfriend in a park in Denmark with a reasonably accurate rendition of all of the collected works of Monty Python's Flying Circus (we did have to wait many hours for the next ferry back from Esbjerg to the UK)

The only one she really enjoyed was the Cheese Shop Sketch. We both agreed it was a masterpiece of British comedy. And my devotion to a life of cheese was born. We split up soon after (unconnected fact, obviously) but I still believe cheese is the food of the gods.

But my cheeseboard is old and frail...

My lowly offering to cheese overflow is below, made from a rather nice Barber's Vintage Reserve Cheddar (If you want to see the limited edition, director's cut video, and understand why I am currently in a bit of a cholesterol haze, click here):

*Bored senseless, apparently. Sorry Kirsty...

Answer 8

Sniff, sniff.

Shog's nose wrinkled. The unthinkable had happened. Someone - and he knew exactly who it was - had just cut the cheese¹.

He had been calmly sitting in his office, working - the folks over at Cooking.SE were having a bit of a salty² discussion on meta - when someone in the office had released a foul, lingering odor.

And since he worked from home, it was of course him.

With the smell grating³ on his nerves, Shog decided to take the prudent course of action and exit the room, at least until the pungent smell had dissipated. I'll just go get a snack, he decided.
He opened the door of his office and walked down to his kitchen.

"Pickles..." he said, scanning the shelves. "No. Appear to be out."
He glanced over at where he usually kept his baking experiments. Unfortunately, mold appeared to be well on its way towards gaining sentience there.
His tomato patch was still unripe.

Opening the fridge was a slight improvement. Here there was half a watermelon rind⁴, a few slices of pizza, and... a rotten orange, emitting malodorous fumes. In his fridge. It seemed like Shog's nose was in for a rough day.

He sigh and decided to just grab the pizza. He pulled it out, walked over to the microwave, and was about to pop a slice in when he heard a sound behind him. His back stiffened. Slowly, he wheel⁵ed around.

A heavy weight struck his head, and Shog knew no more.

---

Catija⁶ watched as her toddler, screaming, lay on the floor, beating his fists on the rug. Having a temper tantrum. Naturally. She couldn't wait until he matured⁷ a little.

"It's okay, Ben!" she said, trying to calm him down. "I'll only be out for a few hours. Your father will be here soon."
She turned to the babysitter, who was eyeing the kid on the floor warily. "I'm sorry... he's not usually like this," she told her, frowning. "I don't know why he's having a melt⁸down now."

The teenager gave a nervous grin, flashing braces.
"It's okay, ma'am, hopefully I can handle it."

"You have my phone number?" Catija asked.
"Yes, I do," the sitter confirmed.
"Good. I shouldn't be back later than 11, and Andy should be here by 5. His bedtime is 7:30."
"Got it," the girl said, making a note on her large purple phone.

Catija took one last look at the screaming child on the floor, picked up her bag, and walked out, closing the door behind her.

It was a warm day for the fall... but then again, it was Texas.

As Catija walked down the street, a taxi pulled up next to her. The window rolled down.
"Need a ride, ma'am?" the driver asked, his face obscured by a large pair of sunglasses.

"No, thanks," she started to decline. But before she could finish, a chemical-doused rag was thrust out the window, and her sight faded to black.

---

The man in black paced around the room. The Swiss⁹ gentleman had just been informed that the capture of the man known as Shog9 and the woman known as Catija had been smoothly executed, and that the pair was now being held. The team he had sent had done a gouda¹⁰ job.

Now he could finally execute the next stage of the plan. He smiled as he dialed the phone.

---

Pizza. Everything was black. Microwave. Headache.

Shog groggily opened his eyes. He was lying on the floor in a dark room.
He sat up, rubbing his eyes. There was a large lump on the back of his head, probably because the head in question had recently had a slight disagreement with a heavy object.

As his eyes adjusted to the gloom, he could start to make out several things about his surroundings.

• he was not alone

On the other side of the room, still out cold, was his new colleague, Catija. Apart from her, though, there was nobody in the room that he could see.

• he was apparently in a cheese factory

All around him were refrigerators, filled with cheese wheels, still aging. There was also a table stacked with what appeared to be containers of shredded cheese.

Odd, he thought. Why would cheese be left out like that?
Not in a fridge it would spoil. Unless...

He crossed the room, heading over to the table to look more closely at these containers. As he passed by her, Catija started to stir. "Wh- what..." she mumbled. Her eyes shot open.

She took a minute to look around her. She was in a small room that was reminiscent of a storage facility. There was large refrigerators around her. And her co-worker Shog - with a rather large lump on his head - standing next to a table, holding a container of shredded cheese.

"I'm thinking this might not actually be cheese."

Caught off guard, Catija turned her head to look at Shog. "What?"

"This might not be cheese," he repeated. "Look. It's not in the fridge, and it doesn't really look like cheese."

She walked over to look. He was right. The "cheese" was too white, thin, and long to be cheese. It looked more like strips of paper.

"You're right," she said. "It looks like... shredded¹¹ paper."

Before he could respond, she popped open the container and grabbed what was in there. Paper.

She upended the container onto the table. Pieces of paper fluttered down to land in a messy pile.

"It looks like... a puzzle," Shog realized. And without needing further discussion, they set to reconstructing the puzzle.

When they had finished, things weren't exactly clearer.

THE NAME OF THIS SEMI-HARD, PALE YELLOW CHEESE IS FORMED OF TWO PARTS. ONE IS THE STAGE OF A CELESTIAL OBJECT. THE OTHER IS A GEOGRAPHIC OBJECT NEAR A BODY OF WATER.

_ _ _ _-_ _ _ _ | _ _ _

THIS AUSTRIAN, SEMI-HARD CHEESE HAS A TWO-WORD NAME. THE FIRST IS A RELATED TO AN IMMENSE GEOGRAPHICAL PHENOMENON. THE SECOND IS RELATED TO LUKE SKYWALKER.

DETESTED BY MANY, THIS CHEESE IS AMONG THE OLDEST ON THE PLANET, AND, IN THE UNITED STATES, WAS OFTEN ILLEGALLY REPLACED BY WOOD.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

THE INFAMOUS CHEESE CASU MARZU - MADE USING MAGGOTS - COMES FROM THIS MEH ITALIAN CHEESE.

THIS NUTTY CHEESE'S NAME IS TWO WORDS. ONE IS PROBABLY IN YOUR DINING ROOM. IT MAY HAVE A CLOTH ON IT. THE OTHER IS NOT QUITE METAL, BUT NOT BLUE EITHER. IT'S NEXT TO A HARD PLACE, THOUGH.

_ _ _ _ _ | _ _ _ _

THIS YELLOW CHEESE IS WARM ALL ROUND - IT'S SMOKEY, SPICY, AND HOT. YOU CAN PROBABLY FIND IT IN THE HEARTH, TOO, WHERE IT'S ALSO FAIRLY WARM.

Can you help Shog and Catija by solving the puzzle and finding out what the answer is?

I warn you: The answer is cheesy.

An overflow of cheese?! You gotta brie kidding!

This is gonna be grate.

I tried to make it as gouda as possible, and it ended up being made swiss love. A holy rendition of our most sacred symbol.

Say cheese! ;)

Oh Dair-y and Holey Cow!. What did y'all think? Let's start with the hardest task? Oh well. I started my cheesy queste here and from there it all went rolling down hill.

I'm personally most fond of soft cheeses, but I make an exception for hooks. I'm also very fond of crochet hooks. But what's a better entry for a digital cheese competition than a perfect piece of Dutch E-dam? So, I went to get some... But...

EEEEK! A Mouse!.

Answer 14

STOP! Look and listen!

This was a quadruple cheeseburger with extra bacon, designed to see if you were paying attention. You didn't pass. This food has severe culinary issues. It is fattening nonsense, oversized, Spam-packed, blatantly unhealthy or otherwise irredeemable - connoisseurs will find it disgusting or repulsive rather than tasty. Please throw away or recommend license revocation when reviewing such food.

Don't worry, we've already handled this food appropriately (we did take the food handler's course) - but please take a minute to look it over closely, keeping in mind the guidance above.

I've had enough of these cheesy audits

Answer 16

Ok, you moved our cheese. Let's get it back.

I start with a simple SQL query:

SELECT Id AS [Post Link], Body, PostTypeId, 'Body' AS RelField
  FROM Posts
  WHERE Body LIKE '%[Cc]heese%'

UNION

SELECT Id AS [Post Link], Title, PostTypeId, 'Title' AS RelField
  FROM Posts
  WHERE Title LIKE '%[Cc]heese%'

This gives all posts containing cheese. (currently 89 on MSE)

Let's continue by adding some fluff:

SELECT Id AS [Post Link], Body, PostTypeId, 'Body' AS RelField
  FROM Posts
  WHERE Body LIKE '%[Cc]heese%' AND 1=1 AND 2=2 AND 'Cheese'='Cheese' AND 3=3 AND 'cheese'='cheese' AND 'fhc'='fhc' AND 'Jon Skeet'='Jon Skeet' AND 42=42 AND 0<1 AND 1>0 AND 'StackOverflow'!='Evil'

UNION

SELECT Id AS [Post Link], Title, PostTypeId, 'Title' AS RelField
  FROM Posts
  WHERE Title LIKE '%[Cc]heese%' AND 1=1 AND 2=2 AND 'Cheese'='Cheese' AND 3=3 AND 'cheese'='cheese' AND 'fhc'='fhc' AND 'Jon Skeet'='Jon Skeet' AND 42=42 AND 0<1 AND 1>0 AND 'StackOverflow'!='Evil'

If we format this then appropriate:

                          SELECT
                 Id AS [Post Link], Body,
      PostTypeId, 'Body' AS RelField FROM Posts
WHERE Body LIKE '%[Cc]heese%' AND 1=1 AND 2=2 AND
-- ------------------------------------------------
'Cheese'='Cheese' AND 3=3 AND 'cheese'='cheese' AND
 'fhc'='fhc' AND 'Jon Skeet'='Jon Skeet' AND 42=42
AND 0<1 AND 1>0 AND 'StackOverflow'!='Evil'  UNION
SELECT Id AS [Post Link], Title, PostTypeId, 'Title'
AS RelField FROM Posts WHERE Title LIKE '%[Cc]hee'+
'se%' AND 1=1 AND 2=2 AND 'Cheese'='Cheese' AND 3=3
AND 'cheese'='cheese' AND 'fhc'='fhc' AND 'Jon Skeet'
='Jon Skeet' AND 42=42 AND 0<1 AND 1>0 AND'Stack'+
'Overflow'!='Evil' AND 2=2 AND 1=1 AND 3=3 AND 1=1

You recognize this?:

Answer 17

The unicorn did it.

The question title asked "Who cut the cheese?" and, well, it looks like the unicorn did.

Attribution:

• Unicorn image from Meta StackExchange by Spontifixus
• Knife image from Meta StackExchange by Tim Post
• Cheese image by Coyau / Wikimedia Commons / CC BY-SA 3.0

Answer 18

I thought I'd let the image speak for itself, but I have to add ... this was imagined, designed, and printed by me on my Anet A8 3D printer using PLA filament.

Which begs the question ... Who did cut the cheese?

If you consider you have to use a slicer to get the g-code (cura in this case),
well I guess you could say I did.

Answer 19

404 Cheese Not Found

Answer 20

I came home as usual, ready to make a nice dinner -- but no! My kitchen was undergoing a food emergency! That essential ingredient to accompany my nice bottle of Pinot Grigio was gone!

Two slices of Provolone -- not nearly enough for a meal! Somebody moved my cheese! The cat wasn't talking, so I was going to have to hunt it down myself.

I found a single slice taunting me, daring me to find its compatriots. Game on.

(This is low-end actual cheese but not "cheese product". This caused some discussion in the comments.)

Another slice had fled to the office, only to be caught by my attack-stapler. Nobody messes with my stapler!

Or my hat. Sheesh.

I'm not sure what the cottage cheese was thinking. And no, it wasn't a very satisfying game of Bananagrams. Cheese can't spell.

The Romano gets points for trying, but burrowing isn't its strong suit.

But oh, the cream cheese -- kraftiest of all, it seems! I haven't touched that box since spring!

The search continued, until finally I'd found all my cheese again.

Wait. Where's the Jarlsberg?

Never mind. I'm gonna have dinner. And wine. At some point you just have to let cheese go free, y'know?

Answer 22

Ever seen one of those "which breed of dog/Harry Potter character/programming language would you be" personality quizzes?

I decided to give a cheese-focused quiz to the Stack Exchange sites. (Well, not all the sites. Just the 15 at the top of the list of sites, and a handful of others.) Here are the results:

Stack Overflow
Feta
It is, after all, the oldest cheese (or, at least, the closest modern equivalent).

Mathematics
Mozzarella
One of the world's most popular, yet not talked about much. Also, often associated with pizza.

Stack Overflow in Russian
Коралл
'cause it's Russian, see?

Ubuntu
Pepper Jack
A popular, friendly introduction to something out of the mainstream.

Stack Overflow in Spanish
Manchego
And this one's Spanish.

Super User
Cottage cheese
Like Stack Overf—um, I mean, feta—it's one of the earliest cheese types.

Stack Overflow in Portuguese
Requeijão
Brazilian and Portuguese. C'mon, keep up.

Stats
Gouda
Nice enough, if kinda mild.

Physics
Edam
Pretty cool, for those who know enough to get past the outer shell.

Unix & Linux
Five-cheese blend
Kind of a mixture of multiple similar topics.

Server Fault
Domiati
An early variant again... and a bit of a salty one.

Electrical Engineering
Cheddar
Often feels extra sharp.

Geographic Information Systems
Blue cheese
What really makes this special and distinctive from other cheeses/sites? An emphasis on sticking pins in things.

Magento
Pecorino Romano
Useful for making other things better, but not exactly a cheese people are enjoying mouthfuls of on its own. (See also Worldbuilding, below.)

TeX and LaTeX
Provel
Kind of a specialty. People who like it tend to be really into it.

English Language & Usage
Neufchâtel
A relatively old style; it's got a reputation for elitism in some circles.

Apple
Gorgonzola
Great with apples. If you don't have apples, maybe don't bother with this one.

English Language Learners
Cream cheese
Covers territory originally owned by Neufchâtel/EL&U, but has evolved into its own distinct entity.

MathOverflow
American
Cue semantics argument over whether this entry is technically qualified/eligible to be on the list.

Blender
Queijo Computadorizado de Duarte
Take a moment to be amazed at what is clearly the best answer to this question. It's so awesome I don't even care that I'm giving free advertising to a competitor.

SharePoint
Government cheese
Whether deservedly or not, it's got some negative connotations.

Code Review
Muenster
Very pleasant, and can be applied in a wide variety of situations. Adding even just a little bit of this will greatly improve pretty much anything.

Travel
Paneer
Somehow, it seems foreign and accessible at the same time.

Home Improvement
Parmigiano-Reggiano
A bit rough around the edges, but overall, it's solid.

Science Fiction and Fantasy
Pimiento cheese
A fun cheese, if a little too spicy at times.

Software Engineering
Emmentaler
Better known to many by another name. (Never forget Programmers SE! (Or, for the true OGs, Not Programming Related.))

Role-Playing Games
Colby Jack
A blend of two different groups (sorry, couldn't figure out how to work in a literal RAW vs. unpasteurized joke), but they work together well.

Stack Overflow in Japanese
Sakura
A cheese from Japan. Seriously, you haven't figured out how this works yet?

Worldbuilding
Nacho cheese
This is just for fun for most people, but for a few, it's a livelihood. (Kinda the opposite of Magento.)

Arqade
Skyrim goat cheese wheel
Started out as an unremarkable component of a larger, established franchise, and quickly turned into an Internet phenomenon (for example).

Puzzling
Bergkäse
Hard and nutty.

Mi Yodeya
Non-animal-rennet cheese
Are you kosher, but still want to have your cake cheese and eat it too? This is for you.

Seasoned Advice
Époisses de Bourgogne
Has the quality demanded by epicures, yet is accessible enough for all.

Photography
Blue Stilton
Meets all the usual criteria, and looks real good doing it, too.

Interpersonal Skills
Milbenkäse
It's debatable how many people are legitimately interested in this and how many just want to gawk at a pile of excrement. Nevertheless, if the stories are to be believed, it could solve some real problems.

Arts & Crafts
Cotija
Okay, this doesn't really have anything to do with A&C, I just wanted to make the easy Catija joke.

Community Building
Lymeswold
It sounded like a great idea on paper, but it's pretty much died off.

Veganism & Vegetarianism
Non-dairy cheese
Not yet mature, and rarely used.

Meta Stack Exchange
Vieux Boulogne
Really off-putting at first, but it does have a small, devoted—one might say "cult-like"—following.

If we got some cheese every time we received an upvote, Jon Skeet:

Sorry for bad photo editing.

Answer 24

Over at RPGSE we maintain a cheese hall of fame. This is a curated list of the cheesiest answers seen on site, including:

• catnapping for an arbitrary number of spell slots
• maximum attainable beard thickness, and
• Chuck E. Cheese, D&D3.5's fastest character. (Superluminal, at that.)

This community has created some of the finest internet-transmissible cheese out there.

I propose that RPGSE as a whole be awarded a cheese board which we will time-share monthly among the top twelve cheese-posters on site, as ranked in our cheese hall of fame.

Answer 25

Little did I know how appropriate this stack of cheddar slices I made a few days ago would be now!

Enjoy! <3

Needless to say: marmots love cheese. (This is taken from here and done with a typesetting system that is often said to be only good for equations.

Answer 30

Now I'm not expecting to win one of the top 25 spots, because we all know the fastest gun in the west gets the cheese.
However I've decided to throw my hat in the ring. (Wait did I say hat?... cheese, cheese stay focused here.)
