SC - cheese

Wed Aug 12 07:13:46 PDT 1998

Greetings:

I've lurked here for several months on the sca-cooks list, not out of 
shyness, but out of a feeling that I had little to contribute - - I'm very 
new to the SCA.  But this week, I decided that I would put forth a best 
effort to come-up with something of interest, even if it was based upon 
secondary sources (like the internet).  Therefore I present, for your 
entertainment, criticism, amusement and use the following chart of cheeses:

Type of Cheese		Date of Earliest Reference		Reference
Feta				{1184BC}					[1]
Sbrinz			"...Roman times..."				[6]
Romano			"...since the time of Christ..."		[6]
Cantal			"...to the time of the Gauls..."		[6]
Munster			8th Century					[6]
Gorgonzola			879AD/11th century				[1], [6]
Roquefort			1070AD/"was the favorite cheese	[1], [6]
				of Charlemagne and King Charles VI"
Wensleydale			{1150AD}					[4]
Grana				1200AD/13th Century			[1], [6]
Fontina			13th Century; "favorite of the		[6]
				Duke of Savoy"
Beaufort			{1267AD}					[2]
Emmental(aka "Swiss")	{1267AD}					[2]
Comte				{1267AD}					[2]
Cheddar			1500AD					[1]
Parmesan			1579AD/{1200AD-1300AD}			[1], [3]
Gouda				1697AD					[1]
Gloucester			1697AD					[1]
Stilton			1785AD					[1]
Camembert			1791AD					[1], [5]

{} signifies I consider that the date is dubious.
/  two dates reported

P.S. I've had problems recently with my mail program including "garbage". 
 I believe I have the problem solved, but if not,  my apologies.
