The always-opinionated Steve Jenkins thinks we get stuck in a cheese rut. He says dump the Velveeta, stash the Mozzarella, and break away with these alternatives:
Roncal from Navarre, Spain is a very rich, superior sheep's cheese alternative to the ever-popular Manchego.
Smokey Blue from Oregon's Rogue Creamery takes you beyond the everyday blues.
Grafton Cheddar from Vermont, Fiscalini Cheddar from California or an English Farmhouse Cheddar from Somerset, England will move you away from the ubiquitous Cabot.
