I'm the exact opposite. I love the explosion of taste but dislike the stronger bigger ones. We grow them in the summer and picking them fresh and biting into them is awesome.

We haven't even factored in that an american will probably consume their body weight in cheese as well over that period.

That sounds expensive. $55usd for a book you can get here for $20usd plus $5 shipping. Add another 5 for shipping to Brasilia. lol

Today we had an assistant professor teaching the class and this girl (who is Asian and slightly retarded with a stutter) walked in late, looked around, looked at her watch, looked at the door, the new professor, and left thinking she was in the wrong class.

Yeah, it is. But, actually, I compared the prices between Blackwell and most bookshops in the United States, and it was cheaper. For some weird reason, handling and shipping seems to be more expensive in the US, and the books cost about 10% less in the UK.
Besides, I've got their card, so I get random discounts every now and then
