Brie peaked at an important time in American cheese history. Fatigued by the usual selection of cheddar, Swiss, and American, Yanks turned their gaze to Europe for inspiration. Brie was the first to step forward, becoming a bona fide food fad at receptions, cocktail parties, and other events, where the ease of spreading it on a cracker was an important factor. Maybe it also had something to do with its resemblance, at least as far as texture was concerned, to Velveeta. Though it was soon supplanted in our affections with other, more flavorful cheeses, brie is worth a revisit. Find it at Stinky Brooklyn.

Perhaps most of your clientele do not care how much the produce costs but we do care and make our choice on the cost of the product nomatter how much we like it. I have viewed 5 or 6 of the tradespeople in Brooklyn (my birthplace)and in only one website did they think it important to mention how much the product costs. In some cases the site gave me information on everything but what I visited for.glop
