2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

I was wondering too. I found this in Wikipedia:

Halloumi or haloumi is a cheese made from a mixture of goat's and sheep's milk, and sometimes also cow's milk. Its texture is described as squeaky. It has a high melting point and so can easily be fried or grilled, a property that makes it a popular meat substitute. Rennet (mostly vegetarian or microbial) is used to curdle the milk in halloumi production, although no acid-producing bacteria are used in its preparation.

Ah interesting. That makes sense. Was getting a tofu of sorts vibe from it but that’s cool that it’s a cheese instead.

I definitely want to try it now

Mmm squeeky texture, my favorite.
