Back in August, I got hooked on Pont l'Eveque, but the problem is, French cheese only ever tastes good to me at the end of a meal in France.  For me, it just doesn't really work in England unless you can get a decent pain de campagne, and even then it would only work for me as a cheese course with a glass of red wine.  On the whole, I don't really like traditional French cheese - especially not when it is runny.  Even in France, I couldn't just eat a Pont l'Eveque sandwich, for example.  If I was to have bread and cheese in France as part of a picnic, then I'd go for Beaufort, Comte or Emmental - sometimes Cantal/Entre deux - but then, those are similar to English cheese.  I have started to like chevre now and I do like to have a salad of chevre on baguette toast with lardons - even in England!  I can't bear Brie or any of the blue cheeses, but wouldn't eat English blue cheese either.  I probably wouldn't eat raclette cheese or reblochon uncooked either, but we do eat Raclette and Tartiflette fairly regularly.
