Do you react if someone posts a blunt generalization without any base or argumentation?
The only thing I read in the article is that the author has someone in his environment who uses "truffle everything" (until they figure out how the taste is added to said oil) and thinks that one has to drink beer to be a non-snob.
There's a local stinky cheese that I'd like to introduce the author to. You know it is "ripe" to be eaten as soon as the cheese starts to move (due to the maggots in there).

Does this bother you?

Yes, as the author is serving them as facts. They're not even an opinion, just his personal preferences. It is as valuable as a list of his/her favorite colors.
In other words; it is a FaceBook post, disguised as an article.

You won't see me posting such a reaction in the C# or the Database-forum

I should not have used the article, I know. 
I only added it, to aid in getting a conversation started...70+ replies so far; not bad, and on a subject most everyone likes - food.
Cheers.

Apparently I am a food snob according to that bit of drivel. I'm sure I am also a beer snob. Or I just enjoy my food and and want it to be amazing for the money I spend. Plus I like to have the proper tools for the job.
0) I have three salts, kosher, iodized, and sea (in flake for serving and rock for grinding).
1) No truffle anything, but I do have a selection of various oils for various tasks. Flavored for dipping, peanut for frying, etc.
2) Selection of bitters? Well, I live in Wisconsin. The Brandy Old Fashioned is pretty much the state drink. So yes. I do have bitters but nothing fancy.
3) Specific glasses for specific drinks? Yes. Just for beer I have four types. Pint, Snifter, Tulip, and Flute. Then the whiskey/scotch glasses.
4) Cheese... did I mention I live in Wisconsin?

Now I got curious.
Over here we have like three brands and fifty types of cheese.
I've never been in Wisconsin, but last time I was in the US the supermarkets had fifty brands and three types of cheese. Cheddar, jack and string. And cheddar didn't have anything to do with Cheddar.
Earlier I had the same opinion about US beers. (Coors lite anyone?)
But I've changed my mind after having been to Brooklyn.
So, please tell me about Wisconsin cheese.

For one, Wisconsin is Cheese Central. I have been there (the Wisconsin Dells/Great Wolf Lodge). We got a lot of good cheeses there. I loved the squeaky curds!

I guess I'd better put it on my list then.

Also, people from there are often called 'Cheese-heads'.
Quite a cheesy name, no?

Wisconsin is the dairy state. All things milk. Recently there has been a surge in specialty cheese makers. Lots of getting back to basics and return to an artisanal method of cheese making. A lot like what is going on in the microbrewing movement is also going on in the cheese making community.
It all depends on the type of market you shop at. At one of the more "normal" supermarkets you might have a smaller selection. You will find cheddar, swiss, low moisture mozzarella, jack, but not much more. If you go to a specialty or more upscale market you will find a lot of variety. While cheddar is their bread and butter, I've had some fabulous smoked goudas, some excellent bleu, farmer cheeses, fontina, gorgonzola, and on and on. As far as cheese curds go, fresh is preferred. Otherwise they lose their squeak. Fresh and deep fried is a thing of beauty.
A good example is Carr Valley[^] does a fabulous job with everything they do. If I'm lucky I can find their 15 or 20 year aged cheddar. Which is full of lovely salt crystals and amazing with fruit. A lot of cheddars but other very good selections.
And beer, we have a lot of great breweries as well. Must be something to do with the northern European immigrants. Beer, sausage, and cheese.

A lot of Americans that were born in the United States have an aversion to strong cheeses, in general. This is my opinion and is not based on fact.
Most supermarkets have a cheese section now, where you can get traditional, authentic, and rare cheeses from all over the world.

I'm a vegetarian, but I'm not supposed to say that because vegetarians are known to tell people they are vegetarian.
I like love French cheeses!

You're mixing it up with vegans.
