Store bought.   don't remember the brand, off the top of my head.   Don't 
know anyone around here who keeps goats to get homemade.   I have just heard 
many of you talking about it, and walked past some in the supermarket, and 
impulse shopped.   My wife just looked at me funny, but didn't say anything.  
 Tasted really good on summer sausage slices.
 
Incidentally, I eat cream cheese plain..., and I like it with the other stuff 
you mentioned.  I just plain like cheese... always have.

The flavor of a goat cheese depends on a LOT of things..including
sanitation and the environment under which it was made.  Fresh cheese is
delicate and can even pick up odors and scents in the air.
Most people's 'first' cheese is the kind that is easy to make by adding
rennet or lemon juice and then hanging it to drain, adding herbs, salt
etc.  Don't judge goat milk or other cheeses like homemade mozzerella by
the taste of this one.  It may not have been seasoned to your taste.
I know very few folks who eat cream cheese straight...usually they add
some kind of seasoning to it like onion or dill or some other flavoring,
maybe ranch or something, something salty...cheese needs salt and a good
cracker that will complement the taste of the cheese.
So, what kind of cheese did you eat?  Did you make it or did someone
else or did you buy it? (YUK if you bought it-no wonder the kids didn't
like it!)
