I wanted to cookout on sunday but was not sure what to cook.
A trip to the Dekalb international Farmer's Market allowed me to prepare both applewood smoked duck legs and a lightly smoked trout filet from North Georgia. I rounded out the selection with my latest incaration of my red skin potato salad and grilled asparagus.

Tiger Processed Gruyere Cheese
When I was much younger than I am today, I remember eating foil wrapped cheeses such as Tiger when flying on a commercial airliners.
I found this set of six individually wrapped foil cheeses at the Dekalb International Farmers Market for $2.49. There is Gruyere flavor, Smoked, as well as Alpine Herb.
Tiger cheese is not a sophisticated european cheese like Kaltbach, it is more a carry along the trail kind of cheese. A cheese that can withstand sitting underwater in the bottom of a cooler and not getting ruined sort of affair and this is one of the reasons that I enjoy it so...

Kraft Cheese in a Can
I don't always know why I am compelled to purchase processed cheese in a can. This particular example seemed to be of some promise as it came all the way from Bahrain to join my collection of pantry oddities.
I think it may be some kind of fascination I hold for the lingering threat of the Cold War or that back in the forties and fifties cans were the future of modern food preservation and convenience. Cheese in a can is something that after the initial nuclear blast we could perhaps sit around and enjoy with saltines down in the fallout shelter.
Even with all of the sublime and elusive cheeses that I can locate here and there to enjoy, I feel there is always be a place in my foodie heart for the guilty pleasue of some processed cheese in a can. This particular food item was procured at Patel Brothers Market in Decatur.
