Val_2 Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 They missed out Maroilles from the north also known as Old Stinky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millymollymandy Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 What about Chaumes? That's miles stinkier than half of those listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teamedup Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 The worst I have ever encountered was mature Munster. You could smell it, even when the fridge door was shut. So that will remain my worst smelly cheese. And I have had most on the list here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charallais Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 I understood that the french cheese banned from being opened in public is "Epoisse" made locally here in burgundy. Incidentally I think it's great charallais' husband. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
