Teleme Cheese (1948)

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

   "Teleme" cheese is not in OED.  Will it be in the next DARE?
   This was listed in an article that I previously posted about how San Francisco is America's culinary mecca.  I'll give SF this one, but New York is practically the Big Cheese.

Teleme cheese
[TEHL-uh-may]
Available mainly in northern California, Teleme cheese is similar in texture to domestic BRIE. It contains about 50 percent milk fat and has a pronounced tangy flavor. When young, Teleme's texture is soft and creamy. As it ages, it becomes runnier and stronger in flavor. See also  CHEESE.
