This week we shared a picture on social media of a cheese massacre at a Parisian dinner party. The culprit? A newly arrived American in France. The victim? An innocent 18-month-old Comté slice.
After the picture went viral in the Earful community, we took a much deeper look at what happened. Here comes an interview with some mortified cheesemongers, some first-class acting from Earful VIPs, and the full story from the knife-wielding Texan.
I'm sure I don't really need to say it, but a lot of this episode is tongue-in-cheek, so don't take anything too seriously. Though the info about how to actually cut Comté is legitimate.
