What Did the Past Smell Like?

I once bought Limburger cheese as a joke. I was shocked to find that the flavor was delicious and it got totally eaten up at the party I brought it to, after people dared one another to try it and being similarly surprised at the deliciousness.

Just in case it's helpful, Limburger is a type of [soft] washed rind cheese:

Most washed rind cheeses share fundamental characteristics that resemble Limburger (to me, old barn), in case you're interested in trying others.

Same! At this moment I have a Camembert in my fridge that can clear out the room once you open the fridge. Much stronger than Limburger. Also delicious.

I see your German Limburger..with all due respect to Camembert, I raise Livarot aka Le Colonel from Normandy. I expect it to remain uncontested in both the delicious and stinky category.

The Limburger without the rind is a light weight.
