I hate the stuff, however I have just had some white Stilton (with apricots) with a glass of tawny port and it was very nice, thank you.

no I don't like it

after several decades I thought I'd try it again a few months ago and got some.......... it was just your basic Sainsbury home brand and I did eat it over few days but I'd rather have been eating any one of half a dozen other types of cheese so I don't think I'll bother with it again

I've been enjoying Aldi's strength 6 Gorganzola and a big chunk of their specially selected Blue Stilton. I won't buy any cheese with fruit in it.

My Christmas favourite always used to be Ritx crackers with this slices of eating apple and Danish Blue. Thin slices of apple on a cracker enhances most cheeses, but works best with blue cheeses and extra strong cheddar. If you've never tried it, do so immediately

Love it. Especially St Agur, spread on crackers with some sliced apple and pickled shallots.

Love it. My favourite cheese is stilton - the king of cheeses. Also like St Agur and Dorest blue and Shropshire blue. Roquefort not so much but its OK.

I love it. It's especially nice as a steak sauce or something like steak and Stilton pie. My favourite is Roquefort - that's nice and creamy.

I don't like blue cheese but love white Stilton but definitely not when adulterated by apricots or any other absurd fruit they insist on adding. Try it - it's gorgeous - it doesn't need fruit added.

Love blue cheese, my favorite is gorgonzola

Also rather partial to stilton but not the white one or one with fruits - ruins the taste!

I like pretty much all cheeses but have never been able to get on with blue. And I love a nice strong stinky parmesan.

I know it's harmless but my first problem is the mental barrier of consuming mould.

Even gave it a try once. Myself and a mate ordered burgers in a pub, topped with cheddar for me and stilton for him. They got switched, and instead of making a fuss I figured I'd open my mind and give it a try.

OMG. The flavour, it overpowered everything. It tasted and smelled like a marathon runner had rung out their wet socks and underwear onto my burger. I scraped off as much as a could, surely I could cope with that. But no, even just the residue left behind was unbearable.

I definitely don't have the taste buds for blue!

I feel the same, I had a beef and Stilton pasty once and it was so bad I couldn't finish it.
