my favorite cheese is old Star Trek episodes
j/k I like medium cheddar for sammiches, and mozzarella for cheese sticks
sometimes a really aged swiss

Gruyere. Optimally, on French Onion Soup.

"Blue" is not a kind of cheese. There are a million different cheeses with blue mold, PICK ONE YOU AMERIMUTT BASTARD! Gorgonzola is a good one for example.

Whatever you call this, I guess. It's Danish-style, but apparently not made in Denmark.
Now you've got me wondering what type we put in our blue cheese salad dressings. It's literally just "blue cheese".

"Blue cheese" is probably mass produced in a factory in the US somewhere while a cheese like gorgonzola is only allowed to be called that if it's from specific regions in Italy.View attachment 5460054

As an accompaniment to another dish, perhaps a nice gazpacho - Burrata. It is mozzarella, if mozzarella went to heaven.
On bread, I like nothing more than mountain cheese from Vorarlberg, the westernmost part of Austria. It has a wonderful nuttiness to it that harmonizes with any kind of dark, grain bread and is not so overpowering that you can't combine it with various thinly cut meats or pickles. It is present, but never unwelcome. If you've never had it, it is a bit like Emmental, but with more character.
If you take a bottle of a nice dry white wine, couple of pears and a hunk of bread with Vorarlberger Bergkäse and you sit yourself down in the grass, outside on a sunny day; I am convinced that, for a time, your spirits will be lifted and you will want for nothing.

Unironically Harzer. A real stinker, but fantastic on bread with pickles.

Fried halloumi is amazing for burgers.
Big fan of this Turkish stringy cheese. It's very salty and delicious.
Chechil is great as a snack with beer.

I don't remember cheese names easily but I like:
Aged Sheep Cheese,
Buffalo Mozzarella,
Smoked Dalmatian Cheese,
18 month aged hard yellow cheese of the country as per Italy, France, Croatia
Home made Ricotta super fresh
Edam cheese/buttery cheeses
Cheese I hate:
Danish Cheese,
Norwegian Cheese,
Most Swedish Cheeses,
Emmentaler Cheese (and other such Dutch varieties).
Basically all these cheeses that are acidic in some weird way, like that give you a weird aftertaste/smell of like old socks or something.
Recently started getting my palette used to Bluemold White Cheese. Especially the softer, less aged variety.
@Null
Have you tried Pule Cheese yet? It's the only cheese made out of Donkey's milk. Worlds most expensive cheese but if you actually go to the place you can sometimes get it a little bit cheaper, guy is supposedly nice guy. Its made in Serbia. I imagine it exists in some of the really upscale stores in Belgrade, there's packages á 50 gram, Kg price is 1000 euro but yeah just buy a lil and do a review here if you can. Would be cool.

Brie ‘bites’ (very good, highly recommend if you like Brie) and ‘snacking size’ fontina.
I’m doing keto vegetarian, so my options are limited, otherwise I would be vegan. These are quick & easy for taking meds, meal substitute, etc.
Brie bites- 6g fat, 1g carb 5g protein
Fontina snack size- 6g fat, 0g carb, 5g pro.

Wait why would your options be limited?
Do you live in America and is it as bad as Null says?
Cause most cheese has 0.5-1,5% carbs
Any high fat cheese is gonna have few carbs. Even accessible cheeses like Cheddar, Port Salut, Gruyere. Or how does Keto Vegetarian work? Is there something specific you want to avoid here except for carbs?
Just don't eat white cheese or processed cheese and you should be fine - if its carbs you're looking out for.
