    My father loved Limburger, but he could only eat it in the winter because my mom wouldn’t let him keep it in the fridge, so he’d store it in the (unheated) garage which was “refrigerated” by Wisconsin’s winter. Also, he’d get in trouble if he used the “good” Tupperware ‘cause it would be ruined by the stench. In a typically Wisconsin move, he’d use an old Cool Whip container instead. 😂😂😂

    My mom used to own a shop that offered a selection of sausages and cheeses (most commonly sold as assembled platters of them already sliced), and she had a customer that came in twice a year to oder limburger, but with the additional request that she shoved it up in the hot attic of the building for 6 months to "ripen". He then shipped it up to a friend of his in Alaska. I can only imagine how much the mail carriers loved him.😖

    We lived in Germany briefly in the 60’s when I was a tot and my mother brought home a taste for Bierkase cheese which I imagine is much like Limburger. We also ate braunschweiger growing up because both it and Bierkase were available in the US in German delis. I never loved the cheese, but enjoyed the liverwurst.

      Bierkäse definitely has a strong smell, but it’s a hard cheese, whereas Limburger is soft and comes in wrapped packages same as Brie or Camembert. Bierkäse comes in large slabs and is cut in slices. It’s one of my all time favourites, but I also love Bergkäse and Limburger because I’m a fan of stinky cheese.😅 So lucky to live in a country with a big array of different cheeses.

    My mother used to eat limburger and rye sandwiches and I'm sure she added onion. I have a strong memory of her stopping at a bakery and buying rye bread, pulling out a knife, cutting the ends off these two giant spring onions, and slicing a tomato and eating an onion and tomato sandwich. Nothing like a midwesterner, and yes, she'd have had it with coffee.

    • @MinielEnglebert
      @MinielEnglebert ปีที่แล้ว +6

      That’s because lactose intolerance is not an allergy. It has to do with a decreased or absence of the enzyme lactase in your stomach. This causes the lactose in dairy products to not be digested as well, leading to bloating, gas, and other GI symptoms.
      Allergies, however, are when something you eat, touch, be injected/get bitten by, or inhale activates your immune system. Symptoms can be a rash, runny nose, itchiness, difficulty breathing, and things of that nature.
      A great way to help with lactose intolerance is to make your own yogurt and incubate it for 1-2 days. The beneficial bacteria will help digest the lactose in your stomach when you don’t make enough lactase enzyme. This has been a great help to my lactose intolerance.

    That was my dad and my aunts' favorite sandwich! They had some every time they got together. I grew up in Michigan, and it was very popular there as well. There was only one room in our house they were allowed to eat their sandwiches - the "family room" because it had French glass doors floor to ceiling that would not allow the odor to permeate through the glass so the rest of the house didn't stink! LOL One of my favorite childhood memories was watching my mom's reaction while my dad ate the stinky sandwich. She always swore she would never kiss him again (which lasted until he brushed his teeth). I occasionally bought him some Limburger for Christmas, which he ate outside with onions and a beer. You don't see it in the stores around here, so I thought maybe they quit making it. You are very brave for trying something that odoriferous! Good job Emmy! I never had the guts to try it.

    I'm a Limburger, from the Dutch province that this cheese is named after. There are two variants here really, the Maastricht Rommedou that is basically raw milk and ripened in a cave. The more generic Limburgse kaasje is a bit less pungent. My parents used to keep them in the fridge until the vacuum package ballooned with the gas released. Then the inside gets runny, like a very ripe brie. The smell is also very ripe by then.

He ate well, had elbow room...and if he were alive today, he'd become your biggest fan, for this one. Guaranteed. He'd love you like I do...

      Have you ever tried head cheese?
      If you don't know, it's not cheese. It's meat bits from the head of a pig (snout, cheeks, lips, forehead, ears) chopped up and pressed together and then held together by some kind of meat gel.
      A local Winn Dixie (closed now) used to have it sliced for sandwiches in the same refrigerated counter as the bologna (packaged the same as the bologna, too).
