Ok dear readers—–first CONGRATS to those brave enough to give an answer—and actually some answers were close…..
THE ANSWER——Well, it depends…..The basic rule is that cheese is cut so that EVERYONE gets an equal amount of rind—-for a couple of reasons:
1) cheese is tangy-er near the rind do that everyone gets a little bit of the best, and,
2) No one wants to have alot of rind—because it is inedible.
What this means is that cheese is cut into wedges—-
