Did you know there are more than 900 known cheeses in the world. They are classified as: fresh cheeses (ricotta), soft cheese (feta), semi-soft (Fontina), semi-hard (Gouda), hard cheese (Cheddar), double or triple crème cheese (Brillat-Savarin), blue cheese (Gorgonzola), washed rind cheese (Limburger), and bloomy rind cheese (Brie).
People have been making cheese for over 8000 years. The cheeses we enjoy today are relatively young in comparison. Take Swiss Chees for example, it only been around since the 1st century B.C.
I love all kinds of cheeses and one of my favorite sandwiches is Grilled Cheese made with Cheddar and Swiss cheese.
So make sure you have one of your favorite cheeses today in honor of National Cheese Lover's Day.
