Any feta fans out there?

I so dislike when restaurants automatically put any kind of cheese on a salad. Many times they don't even mention it in the description, so I now tell them when I order 'no cheese, please'...I want only greens and veggies..that's a salad!

Feta is one of the few cheeses I don't like... the other is blue cheese and it's cousins.

I don't like blue cheese either. What exactly do people see in this stuff? It's beyond me.

Yes, I like Feta.

I like both feta and blue cheese. They both have a slight tartness and bite to the flavor, which I think is an acquired taste, it is one of those things that come with age. Reminds me of eating sweet tarts when you were a kid, once past the initial pucker, it really has a unique taste and flavor you either like or you can not stand. Sorta like Limburger either you do or you don't

I like feta in greek dishes.

I like a good not too pungent blue cheese especially on a burger, I especially like a good chunky blue cheese dressing on a burger. I don't like bottled blue cheese dressings at all, they never seem anywhere near as good as homemade, some of the refrigerated ones in the produce department are decent though.

I haven't tried blue cheese in quite a number of years. So maybe I'll give it a go again with some good quality blue cheese like Clemson Blue. Now, that I'm older I find I like things that I didn't like when I was younger... so, maybe this will be one of them.

That has happened to me several times with other stuff.

Like when I order a veggie pizza, they automatically assume that I want blasted black olives and put them on there!!! I've had to send it back.

They keep on doing that and I'll throw them to the sharks!!

Both cheeses stink like old, dirty socks to me.

No salad is complete without feta cheese all over it.
