Take this What Cheese Are You quiz to find out. We update the quiz regularly and it’s the most accurate among the other quizzes.
We’re not cheese connoisseurs. We’ve admitted to like a couple of classic mozzarellas, a burrata, and a melty American cheese, among other such mundane options. That being said, there is a time and a place for everything, and while we may prefer a beautiful milky creamy ball of mozzarella on a daily basis, where would our lives be if we couldn’t indulge in the occasional stinky cheese from a well-curated cheese plate?
What exactly do you mean? Do cheese shops and carts frighten you?
That is very understandable. Peering into a glass case packed with hundreds of cheeses in various shapes, sizes, colors, and mold labels may be absolutely intimidating, especially if you grew up in a Blue Box Easy Mac and Kraft Singles family like a couple of us did.
When it comes to gourmet cheeses, where do you even begin? Which are sweet and which are sour? Which will melt well on my burger and which will look better on a cheeseboard with a sprinkle of good honey? And when did generic “blue cheese” become 38 different varieties*?
*Or, depending on where you live, when did all those great types of blue cheese at the grocery get reduced to just one generic type? Also, you must try to play this What Cheese Are You quiz.
What Cheese Are You?
These are some of the questions cheese virgins may have on their first visit to the shop, so don’t worry! Everyone needs to start somewhere, and you’ve arrived at the correct spot.
This slideshow contains images and details from a completely biased and opinionated list of 13 kinds of cheese that we believe every foodie, cocktail-party-thrower, and cheese-eater should be familiar with. They range from utterly inexpensive to opulent, from all over the world, and from all three major types of milk.
The feta cheese
Feta has the lowest calorie count, at only 74 calories per ounce. Those Greeks know how to choose food that is both healthy and delightful. Try this Spinach, Feta, and Orzo Recipe with Feta to spice up orzo.
Cheese made from goats
Next up is a personal favorite of mine: goat cheese. Goat cheese comes in at 74 calories per ounce, just one calorie less than feta. Crumble it on top of your favorite salad to take it to the next level. That extra creamy, tangy flavor makes it easy to eat your vegetables.
Mozzarella Mozzarella
With 84 calories per ounce, mozzarella isn’t too bad for you—that is until you wrap it in bread crumbs and deep fry it. But, hey, the thought is what counts. Using this recipe, you may make your own mozzarella sticks.
Brie
Brie cheese is next on the list, at 94 calories per ounce. It’s another personal favorite of mine, especially when wrapped in pastry dough and packed with jam. The flaky pastry complements the creamy, melty cheese well.
About the quiz
The blue cheese
Blue cheese, at 99 calories per ounce, is somewhere in the middle in terms of calorie count—it could be better, it could be worse. Fortunately, I’m not a lover of blue cheese, so I’ll avoid it regardless of how many calories it has.
whipped cream
Although standard cream cheese has more calories per ounce than some other cheeses, 99 to be exact, you can reduce some of those calories by using light cream cheese. So, keep eating your bagel and light cream cheese in the morning.
American Cheddar
When compared to other cheeses, good ol’ American cheese has a high-calorie content of 105 calories per ounce. But what’s a few extra calories if you’re already eating a burger?
Swiss Cheddar
Swiss cheese ranks eighth, with a total of 106 calories per ounce. Like its taste, it’s not the worst, but it’s also not the finest.
