Is Buying Cheese From The Internet A Good Decision?

There's just too many types of cheese to try, and as a cheese-lover, the supermarkets don't have enough diversity. So I am thinking of buying cheese online, but can't decide if that's a good decision considering the large amounts of fraud that happens online. It's just too tempting as I can search for rare cheese and find it online. Has anyone bought cheese from online marketplaces?

Co-worker of mine orders raw cheeses online and doesn't seem to have issues.

Unfortunately I don't know the website he uses so that's not much help.

Well, that's just wonderful. You just had an urge to tell a story that no one asked for nor wanted to hear, didn't you?

:p

My dad loved gas station sushi and liquor store salami. He'd always come home after work with it, plop hus butt onto the couch and watch infomercials all night long.

A buddy and I flew down to FL, one year to take in a few Nationals games ar spring training. Viera, iirc. We stayed with a retired coworker of his. We bought all the food and spirits, his missus was away. He took us to a deli that had a keg of beer and small crackers with toppings.We stayed in there a while….

Well, buying anything online has its risks, but the majority of sellers are legit. Google the site if you have doubts... you want a site that has a lot of customers, that's usually a good indicator.

That is one cheese that I have never heard of. It does sound interesting though.

There's also Brie De Meaux Cheese which looks really good. It's just a shame considering so expensive, for internet quality which means it will be really suspect to how the native tastes like.
