I've not had it for quite awhile but told my wife the other day I was Jonesing for some and it got the best of me. I went to Central Market and picked up several varieties. Some Emmentaler, some Swiss Tilsit and some Gruyères for good measure. Spent way too much money, but damn that stuff is good. That should handle me for a year or two. Well maybe some grocery store Bores Head slices now and again.

Ham and Swiss Turkey and Swiss Sandwiches
Swiss on a Ritz cracker next to a good Scotch on rocks is a great snack before dinner
Swiss is my favorite cheese. Love it with hot chips.

It's a little lower in salt where I buy it. So thumbs up.

What's not to like? It is a very common ordinary cheese but yes it is tasty.

Plus one on the ham and swiss...on rye preferably. Or just cut into chunks for snacking.

A good Swiss is great when you want that distinct flavor, but I prefer baby Swiss for sandwiches.
A toasted ham and baby Swiss sandwich is just thing to brighten a blustery day.
I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself.

Sign me up for Swiss!
I've come to prefer ordinary Tillamook Swiss even compared with Jarlsberg & others.

One longtime cheese shop, Bobby Nelson's, closed up shop about a year ago.
It was a little family run shop on the I-94 frontage road just as you came into Wisconsin, that always had the best cheeses, smoked sausages and locally made jams and preserves.
Best Swiss I ever had was from there and it was aged 8 years. Absolutely the perfect flavor, and practically melted in your mouth.
God, I miss that place...

This thread has taken me back to my Switzerland trip, eating the different cheeses throughout the countryside..man, what an experience and such flavor!
I was in Murren but, went to a place similar, incredibly unique, making the trip that much more memorable.

I/we love it. Best we ever ate was in a small Swill village, way up on a mountain hill top.

Love Central Market, but they're 3 to 3.5 hours south of me. That's a fantastic food purveyor, not just a grocery store.
