M. N. Tahl has been a cheese-lover for as long as she can remember. She has fond memories of her grandma teaching her how to obtain extra portions of cheese with surreptitious cunning. One of Tahl's favorite vacations was spent in Italy, waiting for the local 'mozzarella man' to bring his cheese in a bucket. This delicacy could only be eaten while standing in the sea, due to extreme juiciness. Tahl lives in the perfectly situated village of Cheddar, England.
