Cheese, Glorious Cheese


 There are some wonderful places to buy cheese in Western Massachusetts and one of them is located in the town of Great Barrington.

It's called Rubiner's.

 The store offers small samples of several cheeses which is a good marketing tool. 



 One tiny bite of mouth-watering cheese makes a person want to buy some or a lot!


 There are lots of culinary yummies at Rubiner's, all stacked and nicely displayed to encourage buying.

How about a chocolate bar?


The liverwurst pate on a cracker is quite yummy:



Some 'mallow treats would be nice:





 Now that summer is here, why not stock up on some fudge sauce for summer night sundaes?



 Mmm mmm mmm Whatever you do, don't go into a cheese shop if hunger is making your tummy rumble.

 It's wayyyyyy too temping.


 Locals as well as tourists seem to love this place since it's rarely empty of customers.

DO YOU LIKE CHEESE?  WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE KIND?

    Cheese is one of my favorite food groups. I've rarely met one I didn't like. Hugs, Laura

    How far is that from your home? Gosh I love cheese. But my favorite is Havarti I believe comes from Holland or some country near there.

    Oh yeah - I'll take some chocolate too!

    Cheese and chocolate---no better combination anywhere! I prefer the milder cheeses, but DARK chocolate is the best for these taste buds of mine. Oh---and it's good for us, too! :-)

    Cheese is a wonderful food; so versatile. Appetizer, main course, desert, it can be all of the above. Even dogs LOVE cheese. We just adopted a chocolate lab puppy and she will definitely be eating some cheese!

    My favorite is probably swiss or sharp cheddar. Never have been to Rubiner's; will have to go soon.

    I wonder what kind you bought, Susan?

    Have a great Saturday.

    I love cheese! Cheddar and Mozzarella are my favorites, but I like other varieties too. Looking at your pictures makes me want one of everything!

    Happy weekend! :)
