[edit] Article title

Is goats' cheese really known as "chèvre cheese"? Perhaps this is a United States usage (on a par with the American habit of referring to snails, when eaten, as "escargots")? -- Picapica 22:33, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't think it's a U.S. usage. Around here, we call it "goats' milk cheese". This probably ought to be disambiguated anyway. There are several cheeses made from goats' milk. --GentlemanGhost 20:28, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

I have often heard goat's milk cheese simply referred to as chevre, although this usage is not as common as "goat cheese." "Chevre cheese" is never used. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.185.234.24 (talk) 16:52, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Why the brand name mentions?

It doesn't add anything to the article to name brands of goat cheese in two select countried. I don't feel strongly enough about it to change it, though. TobyCallahan 02:07, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

I removed the bit about the USA cheeses. The other cheeses mentioned are named for their regional characteristics, they are not name brands or specific companies. The info about Humboldt Fog under the USA was blatant advertising. If someone has legitimate info about USA goat cheese varieties then they should put up a USA subheading. --K 10 23:17, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

The Humboldt Fog add is still there. We should be frank, the USA has done nothing inovative in regards to Goats cheese. There are great makers but nothing new.
