Back in the early '80s we ate a lot of English nettle cheese that we bought in the Dekalb Farmers Market in Atlanta. It was delicious. I've watched but never found it in the US since.

It looked like this: https://www.northumberlandcheese.co.uk/nettle-cheese

Wasn't expensive.

I live about five minutes by car from that shop. Weird when that happens on HN.

"Shop"? Ok, well, have you ever been in there? Because it might be the best market in Atlanta, right now.

We just spent a 3 year sojourn in the Atlanta metro area and the Dekalb Farmers Market is one of the only things we will miss. Still the best reasonably priced beautiful cheese/dairy/seafood/charcuterie + a whole bunch of other stuff in N. Georgia.

Now we're back West again and there is Lee Lee Oriental Market. No interesting cheese, but a lot of other things. Including charcuterie!

If you go to the Dekalb Farmer's Market definitely look for nettle cheese.
