My wife puts Tabasco sauce on her pizza, while I am convinced that an Italian person dies every time she does that. Help us sort this out, please.

    Ketchup + sour cream + grated Trappist cheese (cold) mixed with piping hot pasta is godlike though. Was a staple during my childhood.

    We were poor.

        It was the staple of Hungary during socialism and probably still is. Supposedly 70% of all cheese purchases are Trappista.

        It’s very similar to what North Americans would describe as basic cheddar.

          Aha wow, today I learned! Are there that many Trappist monks in Hungary, or is the name entirely unrelated to the monks?
