I couldn’t quite remember, but I did also find pictures of Steve Blackman wearing a large cheese hat, so probably.

In the Netherlands it comes in thin slices. It’s almost always pre-sliced when you buy it.

when I’ve actually had it’s generally been pretty bland and not offensive

find it funny that this is (according to wiki anyway) apparently pizza liver cheese, ‘named for its similarity to pizza’, when it looks, smells and tastes literally nothing any pizza I’ve ever had

Weirdly I was talking about brawn at lunch today. One of my workmates was saying that they put ground up teeth into brawn. I don’t see how that’s possible. You wouldn’t be able to digest it surely?

Anyway when I was growing up I was always told that haslet was the really nasty stuff (unless I’m getting it the wrong way around here)

worked on Tesco’s cheese counter when I was a student. Pensioners were the only people that bought brawn, they also loved haslet which you don’t see much of these days.

Haslet is nice - no clue what it is

“The more modern haslet is a type of meat loaf made with a high proportion of lean meat and no longer necessarily contains any offal at all.”

pretty sure this is the type I’ve had

My mum used to have it every day for lunch at school in Dublin in the 60s. She detested it and I think it damaged her eating habits for life.
