This was actually the first cheese we bought. Bergkäse came first because I was looking at it when the cheese idea came to me.
Camembert is actually Reverend le Camembert. It’s French. We pronounce it “KAM-MEM-BURT” because we thing it sounds like a statue building Dilbert character, and that makes us laugh.
Camembert is a soft cheese. It comes in a little cardboard circle with white plastic wrapping around the cheese itself. The soft cheese is enclosed in a harder, moldy/papery shell. Don’t eat the shell. It’s disgusting. The soft cheese inside isn’t entirely awful, but it’s not great either. It tastes moldy or damp to me. Bweck.
Also, eat it fast. We’ve had it in the fridge for a few days and it’s starting to stink up the place. It made the Bergkäse taste a little less good. Really, I can’t in good concious recommend this cheese. I just opened it up for a second and got another whiff. It’s time for this thing to go in the garbage!
But it’s probably something like “Comb-maim-bear.”
I would also not recommend this cheese.
