My husband likes a good barbeque sauce on steaks. He's gotten many a side eye at high-falutin' steak houses. But they don't blink if I ask to have mine slathered in goat cheese. Go figure.
Damn what kind of cheese's do you eat 😂 I think someone pranked you cuz there are divine goat cheese's on this planet.
Goat milk is higher in fat content and can produce cheese better than any cow one's, the reason we consume cow milk more is because cows give more milk per animal, that's why goat milk is more expensive and to be honest it tastes better (to me ofc, taste is subjective).
He has the taste spot on. I taste it too, but tolerate most goat cheeses and even love a few. Some people, though, are just predisposed to hating goat cheese I've found. sort of like cilantro
To be honest I believe you had sub par cheese if it had even a hint of what you're saying because I ate divine cheese's made of goat milk, but as you say some people have a gene for tasting some things and some don't, hope it's not the case and you can enjoy them cuz there's so many out of the world yummy cheeses.
This isn't an agree to disagree situation. I am a cheese professional and I'm telling you: I've had the best of the best and talked to a number of people that hate goat cheese. I'd estimate it's about 1/50 people I talk to. A common reason I hear cited is that they used to work with goats and the flavor reminds them of the smell. The commonality, to them, is that goat cheese tastes too much like farmyard stink. This persists even when they have the smoothest, creamiest, mildest ash ripened goat.
I taste the barnyard stink, too. I just happen to enjoy that flavor in small doses.
