I figure the one just sat around for longer, as I've had extra blue-y cheese develop in my own fridge. Just never seen such a striking difference at the store, which I found mildly interesting.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

I didn't like blue cheese and my mother tried to fase me into it a few times with mild blue cheeses. Didn't work. One day a guy gave me a cube of Stilton - Colston Basset, if I recall right - and my mind was blown. The taste was strong but so good that itvsomehow clicked. Blue cheese is something difficult. I find average blue cheese awful.
I'l grab a wedge, but I'm blaming you if she hates it! (thank you for the suggestion)
Stilton's are pretty strong. I'd suggest a Creamy Danish Blue for something a bit subtler and very delicious.
I've seen that at the grocer, will check it out, thank you!
Now try a cube of Stilton with a glass of vintage port. Heavenly combo.
