At some points in the cheese laundering process the smell will be considerable; bloodhounds to the rescue!

Hopefully the stocks of quince and damson paste were untouched.

The stolen amount is 22 tonnes. I doubt there is that much damson paste in the world.originally posted by Tristan Welles:

More's the pity.
'stolen'? call me old fashioned*, but when i dig behind teh story, it seems it is more a case of nigerian princes than men in stripy sweatshirts stealing about in teh dead of night. is 'scammed' not teh mot juste in this case?

Really bizarre. Who the hell fences high end farmhouse cheddar? And no individual or even restaurant could use up 22 tons of cheddar.
However, if you are feeling deprived, Jasper Hill/Cabot's clothbound Cheddar and Shelburne Farms Cheddar (both Vermont in origin) are delicious substitutes.

Legit query. Begs the question: who buys maple syrup and farmhouse cheddar in fenced mega-quantities?

From Klaus Fuchs to farmhouse cheddar to American elections, the Russians have never been very good about that "Thou shalt not steal" portion of the rule book.

This would make a perverse sense. With the sanctions and arrest warrants making shopping difficult, there's probably someone there who's opened an Amazon for Oligarchs, where you can order luxuries stolen from around the world.originally posted by Oswaldo Costa:
