As much as I do like swiss cheese, I shouldn't limit myself to
what the grocery stores offer. As I mentioned in another post, I
do have some cheese specialty shops nearby. I would probably be
happy if I did a swiss cheese search for and try different
brands.

I don't constantly have swiss on hand but when I do, I wouldn't
mind paying more for something that I like much more.

So far, from grocery store deli's, Boar's Head varieties bore me
and are overpriced for what they offer. The grocery store
"domestic swiss" win so far...taste and cost wise.

I think my city does have a "cheese tasting" event once a year or
so. I plan to go to it next time I see it coming. I am very
'cheese challenged' and it would be worth the entry money just to
taste so many different kinds. I'm sure I would find at least a
few that I love.
