Haven't heard about Stinking Bishop before, but since it's mentioned in such a company, I just have to try it I believe.

Finlandia Swiss, thin sliced, on almost anything.
Dubliner Irish cheese is nice
Mexican blend shredded cheese (Monterey jack, cheddar, Asadero) for my tacos, nachos, enchiladas, and burritos. I also add it to my scrambled eggs.
I love blue cheese salad dressing. Freshly made if I can.
I try to stay away from the processed cheeses that are rampant in America.

Blue Haze is a smoked blue cheese made in Quebec. It's hard to find because it's a lot like bacon!

My favourite cheese is good, old-fashioned, Lancashire cheese. It's a tasty and crumbly "hard" cheese - not like those weird, squishy French cheeses that are so fashionable these days with pretentious people.
Unfortunately it is almost unobtainable here in the US where their idea of cheese is something yellow, vaguely generic cheese flavoured (flavored) and often comes in a spray can! Ugh!

Is this a trick question ?
I like pretty much all of them.

Then you cannot have tried Harzer Käse – Wikipedia[^]
It has been mentioned by French prisoners of war as a cruel and unusual punishment.

Here in St. Louis, Missouri, the local choice is Provel. Locals call it a cheese, but technically its a cheese product. They put it on the pizza here. I argue its an acquired taste and don't prefer it.

I'm partial to 'Murican cheese on my burger.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Cheeses are living creatures. They have individuality, they can be in good or bad moods. One piece of cheese may be of a completely different quality than another pieces bought two weeks later, even if the name of the cheese is the same.
For the Midwinter feast, I usually go to this one gourmet shop that has their own cheese cellar for doing their own controlled maturing. The Jarlsberg cheese (a Swiss cheese, the only Norwegian true cheese known abroad - the brown cheese is really not a cheese!) I bought for this Midwinter had been maturing since 2017, and was the best cheese I had had since the previous Midwinter Jarlsberg 
Yet, I have tasted even better Jarlsberg cheeses, matured for "only" three years. As stated: They are individual, living creatures, with their own personality.

How is the brown one not a real cheese? It fooled me into believing it is one.

(Even if we learned English in school, it didn't cover professional terminology for cheese making, so bear over with me if I haven't found the right English terms in my English dictionary!  )
To make cheese, you heat the milk and add rennet (or various kinds of acid). The rennet will cause the casein in the milk to coagulate. (Note that the German name for cheese is Käse, from 'casein' - and maybe the English 'cheese' also has roots back to casein!). The curds are then strained from the liquid, and pressed into what becomes the cheese.
The liquid left over after the curds have been removed is called whey. This is the part of the milk that does not become cheese. If you let the whey boil until almost all the water has evaporated, it becomes a really thick sauce, and finally so thick that when it is cooled down, you need a knife for cutting it. Sometimes, the brown cheese makers let it harden in finely decorated wood casts to give the sides various patterns (Brown cheese[^])
In Norway, brown "cheese" is usually made at least partially from goat milk, and frequently referred to as "goat cheese" even if half of the whey is from cow milk. You certainly can make real, ordinary goat cheese as well, from the coagulated casein in the goat milk. This is sold as "white goat cheese" in Norway, but is not at all common. (I believe it is far more common in some other cultures.)
But that brown stuff is not real cheese. It is what is not cheese, when the cheese has been taken out of the milk.

Thanks for the explanation
So, my favourite cheese, isn't.

My favourite cheese is ewe(sheep) cheese or brebis, which I have not actually had for years since I have not seen it on the shelf in the UK.
Must look for it the next time I shop.

I'm reading this book:
Are You Smart Enough to Work at Google?: Trick Questions, Zen-like Riddles, Insanely Difficult Puzzles, and Other Devious Interviewing Techniques You Need ... to Get a Job Anywhere in the New Economy[^]
It's a bit old (from 2012) but it is really great & as an IT-worker I highly suggest you read it.
It rips into the interview & hiring process. It debunks these silly tests/puzzles & it provides a history of how this all got started (goes back to old days of IBM & early silicon valley).
Plus, if you like puzzles there are some interesting ones & some really stupid ones.
Here's a sample of a real Google interview question: "You are shrunk to the height of a nickel and thrown into a blender. Your mass is reduced so that your density is the same as usual. The blades start moving in 60 seconds. What do you do?"
This one is at least interesting and has a great solution that helped me learn a bit.
I never would've guessed the correct solution.
Have any of you read this book?
