...what is that cheese I am thinking of that i used to get when hiking in Norway <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> brown, carmel like, I can't for the life of me recall the name <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />


Gjetost (or Mysost).


<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />Yes you are partly right. It is explained here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brunost The word gjetost or geitost means simply goats cheese, and this may also be a white cheese here in Norway. Mysost means made from myse or whey, often also called fløtemysost (fløte=cream). The usual word is just brunost. Then it is made from mostly cow milk, and the most used name for that type of brunost is Gudbrandsdalsost. Funny that this comes up in a forum for winter and snowshooing, but yes many of us Norwegians may hardly go on tour without a slice of bread with this brunost, me included. *LOL* perhaps we are close of being off topic. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
