Edible Delirium

December 8, 2017

Okay, something is seriously wacky with the cheese people. First, pink prosecco cheese. Now this: Finlandia cheese company has created an edible cheese wine glass and edible cheese beer glass. At first, I thought, “okay, I’ll get one as a gag gift (really a gag gift) for WineSpeed’s publisher since he likes cheese.” But then I found out each eat-me glass cost $5000. And then I discovered you could only buy the glass on Facebook (beat that op-ed Amazon) and only on one day—last Wednesday. I swear if eat-me glass went viral, I’m in the wrong business. Your complimentary subscription BrieSpeed will arrive next week.

The Wine Clip: What Is Fiasco?

“No! We’ve only been growing cab franc here for 900 years. There is still so much to learn.”

—Mathieu Baudry of Domaine Bernard Baudry
Upon being asked if he would consider growing red grapes other than cabernet franc in Chinon (Loire Valley) France.
