I’m not a woman, but I will admit that giving me cheese gets you my full attention, if not outright devotion.

Does it have to be name brand rue, or can I use the generic store brand?

If she doesn't want him I'll take him, cheese is one of the ways to my heart.

Or you can just enjoy the mac & cheese, chocolate, and wine separately, like a non-psycho!

Or, and I'm just spitballing here, a dash of mustard and paprike with a buttery crumb topping. Which would be complimentary to macaroni and cheese and not make your mouth scream in agony at the fact that you are eating three things that do not in any way shape or form go together in one dish.

Then maybe give them the wine and chocolate as a dessert.

Optionally for periods the wine can be white since you get free red dye

Add jam or dulce de leche and the combo becomes a thing of dreams 🤤

Add a piece of dark chocolate with chili pepper, everyone looks at you funny when you suggest it, but it's always the combo they make for themselves afterwards.

3

Guava jam, salami and provolone also go fantastic together. They hit the stomach like a bomb the first time, but it's easy to get used to too.

Not if you're a farmer who's making it. No fake inflationary markup.

If he made it himself, it’s a rather thoughtful and personal gift! I’m cheering for cheese man

I showed my wife this. Asked her what if I gifted her a wheel of cheese for our anniversary.

She said she would remarry me. But it would depend on the kind of cheese.

An aged cheese the age of your anniversary would be a cool gift. But it would get very expensive very fast

When I worked in telecom, suppkier would always send candy or other crap by Christmas time. One supplier sent me a wheel if cheddar. Still remember this 15 years later. But I've forgotten every other supplier

I would 100% prefer getting potatoes and/or cheese instead of flowers. I don't like getting flowers.

15

It's like 3 minutes if "aww they're so pretty" and then a week or two of watching them die

10

I'd be ok with a flowering plant, something I can put in a pot or the garden and it'll live.

He can afford to feed her. Clearly a catch.

...people always like to forget, how much in love relies on instinct.

12

I plant the potatoes and wait until they flower out of spite.

(well, more accurately, because I have a small farm, but still some spite).

Reminds me of that high dude who bought 40 pounds of parmesan because it was mistakenly labeled as dirt cheap.

Reminds me of a guy who ordered pizza to the pub but didn't want to make the landlord cross so he got enough for everyone. I had three slices and some of his weed.

And just like that… late stage capitalist society winds back at hunter/gatherer tribal norms.

Haven't you seen the traditional British reenactment of a bronze age cheese hunt?

3

Well, this would def be appreciated by me (oh fuck, this is goin to be fire with pasta and also costs a lot) and my instincts (oh damn, this guy has food)

4

Cheese-Flowers-Potatoes for me which incidentally is also arranged highest price to lowest. My kids got me a wheel of Humboldt Fog one year for Christmas. Cheese is a fantastic gift.

3

Bro have you seen the price of cheese these days ? I almost felt like crying in front of the pitiful slice of comté costing 38€/kg in the store's fridge yesterday.

(Though this screenshot is a few years older than the inflation spike)

Ah, young romance. Actually, it's a good strategy to find out if she can cook. You'll never be sorry you married a good cook.

2

IIRC it's like 20.liters of milk for each kg of cured cheese, give or take. So 250 liters of milk for that gift.
