Cheese and wine is good for your brain, study finds

[Chik a Boom]

Good to know...there may be hope for me!

A habit of mine for several years just before bedtime...sometimes throwing in a bite of chocolate. I sleep like a rock (thank you, Lord).

Waiting on the draft Budweiser and queso dip study . . .

That's been proven for years...You never heard the old, fact-based adage "Drink beer. It makes you smart. It made Budweiser"?

Chocolate? Don't get me started on chocolate! (On second thought... )

This thread really hit home as I was just reading of all the benefits of an 8 oz. glass of red wine every day. I quit drinking almost 6 years ago when my wife gave up smoking, but I said to her, "look Hon at all the benefits of having a glass of wine every day,,, lets give it a try'". Got a box of Merlot and had a glass with a meal. Almost knocked me off the chair. Wow,,, didn't expect that and the queasy feeling just really put me off. Gave the box to my son and DIL and got a box of grapes from Sams. Grapes straight out of the freezer are REALLY good.

Has not worked yet, but I'll keep trying.

I'm going to go get some Maneschevitz and provolone.

Maneschevitz and Provolone? You must have a pretty serious lawsuit going to afford those guys.

I really should have seen that coming.....

I remember years ago when around here
Manischewitz was "Mannisherry"
Mogen David was "Morgan Davis"
Store owners knew what to bring out, too.

If it tastes THAT good it must be good for you, right? Says he after finishing the double shot of bourbon and heading straight for the turkey and gravy - RIGHT NOW

"Cheese and wine is good for your brain, study finds"

If that's the case, this bottle of Bordeaux puts me in the Mensa candidate status...by the end of the night I'll be a bona-fide genius!

But tomorrow morning I'll feel like an idiot...

Must be like the COVID-19 vaccine. They know it works but the question still remains as to how long it will be effective before a second dose is required.

I'm in trouble then, I don't like wine and since I got to 50, I get very very unpleasantly flushed if I even drink a Twisted Tea. And cheese? I would rather die than touch the stuff (Being nice here, it disgusts me).

And yes, that means I don't eat anything with cheese in/on it, or tomatoes. I have had a total of two bites of pizza in my entire life and neither was swallowed.

Alas, "Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes you're the hydrant." But there are no doubt other foods that can help your brain- possibly ones I wouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole, either.

Really blessed are the Winemakers.

Blessed are the Cheesemakers.

"Well, obviously it’s not meant to be taken literally; it refers to any manufacturers of dairy products.”

 

[Protocall_Design]

They make a lot of dairy products in Wisconsin. I am told their state motto is - "You'll love our dairy air!"

Perfect! Except I'd skip the grapes-too healthy.

1985 Tenuta San Guido Sassicaia

Aged pecorino di pienza with a side of balsamic vinegar

If it is truly good for your brain, then this combination would make you Einstein......
