    Oh I love this. I’m going to hit my coworker that loves showing off his car with “goat cheese is more expensive per/lb than your car!” Lol

    Give a man a Roquefort, he can eat for day. Give a man a Ferrari SF90 Stradale, he can eat for a lifetime.

      I don’t think it’s recommended that you eat a whole roquefort at once. The Ferrari even less so.

    What’s “goat cheese”? There’s dozens of kinds of goat cheese. If not more.

      In the states there is a soft cream cheese like cheese simply called “goat’s cheese”, I am guessing that is the cheese to which they refer.

      It’s Munster on the list, a washed-rind cheese from France. Muenster cheese in America is probably somewhere down around a used Ford Focus.

        Oh wow, now I get it. I always wonder why there was relatively many references in American culture to a relatively little known French cheese.

        But now I do!

      And where are they buying cheese? At my local Walmart four versions of Cheddar (mild, medium, sharp, and extra sharp) are all $4.22 per pound, less than the 5 minimum.

        I would assume they are talking about the grade of cheddar that you can buy alongside fancy cheeses. Like, cheddar off a wheel

    “Porsche isn’t worth its weight in cheese!”

    [receives call] Hello. Oh. It is? Just barely beats Roquefort. Well, fact checking’s your job, Steve. Fine. [click]

    “Roquefort is the Porsche of cheeses!”

        A “I wanted to make my graph look this way so I chose this particular version of a log tranform” scale.

        A bit cheesy if you ask me.

    For funsies I calculated the Price per Pound for the M1A2 SEPv3 tank, which worked out to be about $163/lb. I guess it make sense that it’s at the super car range haha

        Once again using Wikipedia numbers for the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower, with a cost of $5.5 billion in 2024 dollars and a displacement of 101,600 long ton (227584006.38 lbs), that works out to be $24.16 if my math is correct.

    Now I kinda want a cat brand where all the cars are named after cheeses.

    Edit: I meant car brand, but I’m leaving it because it’s funny.

    lol i never realized the Ford F-150 Lightning was cheaper per pound than the standard F-150 considering that the lightning is heavier. Also wild that I’ve eaten cheese that was worth more than a RAV4 per pound lmao

      Might depend on the trim. Unless pricing has changed recently, a Lightning in the basic work truck trim is less expensive than a comparable gas engine work trim with the same size cab, bed, and 4WD. Usually only companies buy that trim, though.
