Frankly I find it interesting that Monty Python included this cheese. First of all it's a brand rather than a cheese style. And secondly it had only existed for about 15 years when the skit came out. Maybe this was an early example of product placement marketing.

And when it comes to just what exactly Boursin cheese is, even Boursin won't tell you. They say it's made from Gournay cheese, but that's just made up. If you ask me it's just flavored cream cheese.

But, truth be told it's pretty damn good flavored cream cheese. I tried the pepper version here and found it to be outstanding on crackers. Pepper is one of my favorite seasonings, and I wasn't disappointed.

Strangely, this is one of the cheeses that the cat wouldn't eat.
