BeaverCheese.org

On November 30, 1972 a certain wacky British comedy group aired the Cheese Shop sketch. In the sketch 43 different cheeses are mentioned, including Venezuelan Beaver Cheese. The goal of BeaverCheese.org will be to explore those 43 cheeses in depth. Whether we actually get to the Venezuelan Beaver Cheese has yet to be determined. If anyone knows of a producer for that odd queijo, please contact us.
