On Cheesy Comestibles

 Now that Lesley and Alexandra have forced us to confront cheese, I feel obliged to provide a link to Monty Python's The Cheese Shop Sketch.  Le fromage de la belle France, anyone? 

There is a folklore article on cheese and witches  available on JSTOR: Cheese Gives You Nightmares:Old Hags and Heartburn.

And Circe offers Odysseus' men a potion containing cheese, wine, and barley.
