      “This is not the cheese for pizza! Why? Why you do this?!” she kept saying over and over, I thought she was joking at first but genuinely distressed. Tbh she was a bit of a strange woman (and I say this as an objectively strange man). It didn’t last longer than a few months!

      Final straw was when she had been saying she missed home badly, so for her next visit I bought a dining table, assembled it myself, bought a bunch of Italian foods, some Italian wine, got it all setup with a nice tablecloth and spread when she got to mine, and she literally went “meh” when she sat down hahaha.

        Cheddar can be good on pizza, but not aged cheddar. I tried a 5-year aged cheddar on pizza once and it was no good. Should have cut up the block and eaten it on crackers like usual. Even if you like aged cheddar, it doesn’t melt right on pizza. I’m guessing most cheddar in Europe is aged?

        American cheddar isn’t always aged–in fact, you usually have to go to the specialty isle to find aged cheddar–and you can blend it in with mozzarella and parmesan and whatever else to get a good result.

        Cheese curds, though, are amazing on pizza.
