ok so this is just my personal taste - i know a lot of people who love goat's cheese!.!.!.but for me - it is the most vile thing i ever tasted!. i tried 2 types - the first one was firm and i didn't like it!. it didn't smell bad so i tried eating it but you know what goats smell like - it tasted like that!. yuck!.
because it's being promoted form all sides i decided i'd give it one more try when a friend had this in a restaurant!.!.!. it was a kind of melted and looked a bit like camembert!. again it didn't smell bad but when i put a piece in my mouth i nearly vomited!. some of the worst seconds of my life, then i managed to swallow it and a pint and a half of cider got rid of the taste in my mouth!. i found it really weird that it tastes the same as what the animals smell like but it doesn't actually smell like it!. very deceptive!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

the best goat cheese i've ever had was very strong, like feta or asiago!.
i was put off at first, too, so don't worry!. but if you like your cheese to have strong flavor, you'll like it!. the flavor kind of brings out the warmth of meats and cooked veggies!.

its so hard to explain tastes!. i wish i were earnest Hemingway!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Goat cheese can range in flavor from savory like a nice Motzerella, or a crubly, chewey nice cheese like feta!.
