Hi! My name is Paul Taylor. I'm English, but I live here in France and one of the things that I never understood is... "Le Fromage"

The only important thing to understand about cheese, also the most complicated thing to learn, is how to properly cut it.

I have to cut the cheese for my wife during family gatherings, because I know she will massacre the poor thing and everyone at the table will silently judge her.

There is an untold etiquette to follow while cutting cheese, and the method is different depending on the cheese type and shape.

Cutting the cheese is just a mathematical thing in order to get the more fair cutting so everyone get the same share of inside and outside.

I too blame my partner, or the dog, for cutting the cheese at large family gatherings :P
