I am going to Central Market tomorrow to get my green tomatoes to make green tomato relish. They have this wall of cheese but is overwhelming. Any recommendations? I don't want to smoke it.
 
I'm not sure what brands CM offers, but I really like Cabots Hot Habanero cheese and their Horseradish cheese. Either one is good both smoked and not-smoked.

I like Longhorn Cheddar from Bassham Foods. It is not an aged cheddar, but a washed Colby Cheddar!

I think if I was in you situation I would be coming home with an entire cart of cheese. We have a place about 2 hr from here that has 4 rows of cheese to choose from. I'll spend forever trying to choose! We enjoy some of the softer sticky cheeses too. Like brie or some of the softer blue cheeses. Also make sure you pick up a few extra green tomatoes to make fried green tomatoes with. They are great for topping burgers with or BLT sandwiches!
 
Here is a picture of it They also have several barrels stacked with cheese on it.

Fontina is a great choice. Love it. I like most all cheese and find it hard to choose. Guess you have to buy one of each! :emoji_laughing:

For eating plain, manchego would be my go to. We routinely do summer salad with steaks. I make them with nuts, fruit, and bleu, gorgonzola, or goat cheese. For cooking, my go to is deli white, the melt-ability is unmatched.
 
Fontine is such a pleasant, unthreatening kind of cheese... I like it for almost anything...
I never tried it. Just seen it in a post. Be a long time since I been in this store. Most those cheeses have a pretty big price tag on them for me.

I love most cheeses I have tried, but of all the cheese I've smoked, our favorite is Mozzarella.

Wow, wish I had that choice of different cheese. Our town is pretty generic. Velveta is tough to find.. ( just kidding :emoji_laughing: ) but close.

Well if it wan't for this 60 mile drive to work I would not have many choices either. It the only thing good about making this drive good assortment of stores and restaurants. I turn 59 if few days and don't know how much longer can do this. My broker talked me into working until 65 but I think going to tell him change back to 60!!

Not sure how Tomatoes are a gallon but this should have it covered. These are the cheeses I got Really hard to read the names on the shelf's and find something you looking for. Just so many. The price tag on some of those pretty heffty. Now when those Walton spices get here make some jerky to go with it. Need to tackle sausage one of these days.
