sudshr47 December 18, 2017

Brits are royally cheesed off after a “diabolical” cheeseboard event left hundreds of people bitterly disappointed. This debacle of epic proportions has even been likened to this summer’s Fyre Festival.

The £30-a-head ($40) “Giant Cheese Board” event—which purported to be “cheesy heaven” on earth—had so much promisePer a Facebook event, the multi-day event claimed to be an enormous cheese board that could be walked around and feasted upon.

“Carving off slices of your favourite Emmental, Red Leicester, Edam, Brie and every other cheese you can imagine? Surrounded by cheese, rolling around in cheese…eating so much ch…sorry, got carried away,” reads the event description. Read more…
