Turophile (NaPo #6/30)

Golden-amber, and pale, white, goodness, graces my plate,
Turning my meal, from just sustenance, to something ornate.
Forget oil, I've struck gold!
Something known to humans since time, old,
It comes in a vast array of flavors,
Though a spectrum of minors and majors.
It can liven up any dish,
Anything you wish!
 
...Cheese!
...And more cheese!
Yes, please!
 
Put it on crackers, nachos, pizzas, pretzels, sandwiches, and mashed and baked potatoes,
In sauses, souffles, quiches, soups, stews, pastas, desserts, and sauces made with tomatoes.
Anything you can think of,
A gift from above!
That liquid (or solid) gold.
That in every grocery store, is sold.
 
My favorite food,
Is better than good,
Perfect, it be,
I put it on almost every meal that nourishes me.
Almost everything I eat,
Is turned into a treat.
 
I once heard that cheese is an addictive substance,
I believe that, it's definitely not nonsense,
I think that I'm addicted to it,
About the topic of cheese, I am very passionate.
I'm so glad that I'm not lactose intolerant, or a vampire who can't eat.
 
I could go on and on about cheese, cheese recipes, cheese flavors and food pairings savory and sweet,  
And more!
Oh, there's so much in store, in the world of cheese!
It brings me peace.
Along with macaroni and cheese and rice,
These are my favorite foods, I cannot enough, emphasize.
(And yes, if you were wondering, fiber powder is an essential part of my diet.)
