      It depends somewhat to a person's tolerance to different molds. I can eat many cheeses, but bleu cheese, for example, will make me very ill. I know that I didn't trim far enough pretty quickly because my hands will swell and I feel unwell. I am too cheap to throw away a large chunk of cheese with a little mold, though. "Live life dangerously: Eat Cheese" is my motto. (Well, ...not really).

    Never heard that cheese gives you nightmares!
    I love cheeses.
    My favorites are Brie, Camembert and other soft white rind cheeses. Chaumes, St Albray, 🤤
    But I like others too, hard cheeses like Emmentaler, Leerdamer, Maasdamer, Bergkaese, smoked cheese, cream cheeses with herbs.
    I’m not that fond of Italian cheeses, though a good Provolone every once in a while …
    Parmigiano Reggiano I mostly grind & put on top of spaghetti or linguine with my homemade tomato sauce or just some good olive oil on the pasta.
    Some Swiss, Dutch and Danish cheeses round up my selection every once in a while.
    I use cheddar (English cheddar, sometimes white, sometimes orange coloured) mostly in ham & cheese omelettes, or sometimes cubed as snacks.
    I don’t like the sliced processed cheeses (American cheese) which some people put on US style bread (Toastbrot), but it does make an edible grilled cheese toast. Every once in a while.
    What I missed most during nearly 12 years in the USA was real cheeses and real bread.
    I’m sooo happy living in Germany again, with a good selection of various cheeses pre-packaged in every supermarket, in discounters like Lidl and Aldi and on the “cheese counters” of upscale supermarkets.

      I try to buy organic cheeses as much as possible, in Germany organic is called „Bio“ and those cows lead a much better life, spending a lot of time outside grazing, being able to roam and eating mostly grass and hay.
      Of course their milk output is less than that from the cows in conventional milkfarms, which makes the cheeses more expensive, but it’s worth it.
      Or cheese from smaller, local “Käsereien” like Bergader in Bavaria.
      On their website you can find links to the milkfarmers who supply the milk to Bergader, with details on each farm, how many or how few cows they have, if they’re mostly inside or allowed to roam, if the particular farm offers “farm vacations” etc.
      Being a smaller “Kaeserei” they offer less variety than the big companies, but then I can choose a different cheese from a different “Kaeserei”.
      My favorite cheese, I eat about 1 wedge every week, is the 200 grams Bio Camembert from Edeka.
      Maybe I gave the wrong impression, I don’t eat lots of cheeses all the time, it’s the variety I like.

This happens every year, until the cow is "used up" and then she get send to the slaughter house at a fraction of her life time. Thats Bio and small farms for you. Not that nice after all, isnt it?

And as for the flavour in processed cheese it’s improved slightly in recent years ( It’s not as plastic flavoured as I once remembered it)…🧀…… ⚛️☮️🌏
