It's a triple-cream, REALLY high fat content cheese, Ang- very delicious.
The first time I had it was in the 1980s. Served on Belgian endive leaves as an appetizer. I will never forget the first taste of it.
It is funny that it is being mentioned now- for the first time in 20 years I found it in my local grocery store last month. I didn't buy it because it is packaged in a cardboard container and I don't trust the handling prowess of this store chain. St Andre is very delicate cheese and must be handled with care. I hope you can taste it some day, Ang- incredible.
