Re: Your favourite Swiss supermarket-bought cheese

Saint Andre is soft, buttery and salty. It has a tiny similarity to Brie, although it is still quite different. For me, it's definitely not sweet. It is a cow milk cheese...that uses cream, so it is possible that one could find the sweet cream flavor behind the salty...but, as I said, for me it's not that. I will say, however, that Saint Andre is typically served with pears and other sweet fruits. If you do a quick google search...you'll find a wealth of information about it. It seems that a lot of 'foodie' type people seem to write about this little masterpiece.

It's worth a try, no?

cheers,
rebecca
