These foods are also astounding in their range, from simple, everyday varieties to expensive, handcrafted examples. But to Americans raised on Kraft Singles, browsing a case of specialty cheeses may be overwhelming. But have no fear–Scardello Artisan Cheese, 3511 Oak Lawn Ave., offers a Cheese 101 class for newbies at 7 p.m. Thursday. For $25, attendees can taste 16 to 18 cheeses and learn about eight cheese types and the cheese-making process. Class members also receive 10 percent off any same-day purchases. Reservations are required. Call 214-219-1300 or visit scardellocheese.com.
