Top 10 Stinky Cheese Countdown Cont...

We're searching for the perfect cheese to represent Stink Week using the Top 10 Stinky Cheeses in the World list from HotelClub Travel Blog.  We looked at numbers 10 and 9 earlier.  Let's continue.

Stinking Bishop..love that name!

8.  Stinking Bishop

Now we're talking.  Anything with 'stinking' in the title definitely has the potential to be the official cheese of Stink Week.  It has an orange rind that is really sticky.  Sticky and stinky are good.  Ooo, and it has a powerful odor of old smelly socks.  Excellent.  The blogger writes that "if you plan to buy some, go straight home before people start complaining."  That sounds just like what the teachers say about Jack D. and his friends!  Oh wait a minute.  It says that it's just the rind that smells.  Inside the cheese is soft and delicious.  Delicious?  That's very un-Stink Week.  Next!

Made with the same bacteria that produces B.O.  Lovely!

7.  Limburger

Ahh, an old favorite.  Limburger is legendary for it's stink.  According to the blog it is fermented using the same bacteria responsible for the smell of the human body.  Cheese that smells like B.O.  Sounds delicious.  Uh-oh.  It IS delicious.  "If you can handle its smell long enough to have a bite, you'll realize this German delicacy is quite tasty."  That's unfortunate.  We'll have to keep looking.
