Cheese was the name Humans gave to a variety of foods created by culturing milk.
Some Earth dogs have a problem digesting cheese, which often made it unwise to feed it to them. Nonetheless, it was Porthos' favorite food, and Captain Archer often fed it to him against Doctor Phlox's wishes. (ENT: "Dear Doctor", "Chosen Realm", "Azati Prime")
The Vissians considered cheese a very sensual food, because of its unique smells. (ENT: "Cogenitor")
In 2154, while Phlox was held by the Klingons attempting to find a cure for the augment virus, Archer noted that Porthos was probably missing Phlox and his "stash of cheese". (ENT: "Divergence")
A wedge of cheese was among the items that the food synthesizer spat out while the computer of the USS Enterprise was malfunctioning in 2270. (TAS: "The Practical Joker")
In 2364, a waiter in the holographic program Café des Artistes offered Captain Jean-Luc Picard wine and cheese, but he declined, as he had really only come for the view. (TNG: "We'll Always Have Paris")
In 2365, when the USS Enterprise-D was trapped in a seeming void in space, Lieutenant Geordi La Forge quoted "Like the rat said, 'Keep the cheese, I just want out of the trap.'" (TNG: "Where Silence Has Lease")
In 2367, while re-enacting a scene from A Christmas Carol on the holodeck of the Enterprise-D, Lieutenant commander Data, as Ebenezer Scrooge, told Jacob Marley 's ghost that he didn't believe in him, for "You may be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of an underdone potato." (TNG: "Devil's Due")
In 2370, Talur believed that Data, crash-landed on Barkon IV, was an ice-man suffering from malnutrition and recommended a diet heavy in meat, butter and cheese. (TNG: "Thine Own Self")
In 2371, Neelix tried making macaroni and cheese for Ensign Ashmore, but lacking real cow milk he used schplict (grakel milk) which contained bacteria infected with a virus. The virus got into the life support systems and infected the bio-neural gel packs throughout the ship, nearly destroying it. (VOY: "Learning Curve")
In 2375, Neelix created some bland cheese as a dessert to try to satisfy the Kadi delegates. He also offered this cheese to be sampled by B'Elanna Torres and Tom Paris. (VOY: "Someone to Watch Over Me")
