English Blue Stilton Cheese.....question for British runners

You are right, it is the king of cheeses!

It's really popular around Christmas so I was eating it regularly for about 3 weeks. Strangely, I gained almost exactly 2.2kg over that period - to the detriment of my cross country speed this afternoon :-(

It is a well known 'old wives tale' over here that cheese makes you sleep badly. Personally, the times I am most likely to indulge in lots of cheese are after dinner parties where I already had a cocktail or two, 2-3 wines, and maybe some port or whisky with the cheese, so there may be other factors there too. As the scientists would say, "more research is needed"...

oh...the cat ate it...

Cheese before bed gives me crazy dreams. I love a bit of Stilton to be fair.

This morning I melted some Stilton and put it on a nice piece of chewy and crunchy French bread. Great way to start the day.

Afraid it does not work... hard cheese

Gruyère or Comté for me.

I used to like cheese, until I realized that it's just a cow's titty juice that's been left to go mouldy. Now it doesn't have the same appeal.

Oh and no a big lump of saturated fat will not help you lose weight. Ask the kenyans how much cheese they eat.
