Staying true to our hippie store roots we also have a large cooler filled with soy, rice, almond, and vegan cheese alternatives and workers who actually eat these products regularly.
Young cows in bondage
My nose is always stuffy
The treeless jungles
Ringing up bleu cheese
Stink slimes through the plastic wrap
I must wipe my hands
How can you stand it?
That sour evil fuckin' stink!
Your nose must be dead.
Never meant for us
Tortured mom-cows milk curds pressed
Now unfit for calves
Old Testament sin
Hellbound on a cheeseburger
Diet by Moses
-Wind
Malnourished vegan
Bleats at the evil dairy
Sound of broken wind
A man has walked on
The moon, but can they make a
Decent soy cheese? No.
My bust grows ample,
No one's complaining. Sing praise
To bovine sistren.
-Jenny G
A haiku for you
So I can have that barrel
Pick me for winner
Hey Dog! Red Rocket
Red Rocket making cheese from
Doggie milk is fun!
I like best cheese prize
No oil fat in my tummy!
Can I win it yet?
I eat much fiber;
Cheese will keep me regular
Now pass me the brie.
It's fun to drink beer
And demolish the Tastai
But where's my wallet?
All milk becomes cheese
No matter the animal
And it's all smelly
Dear, milk me someday
Do it softly and gently
I must make some cheese
Cheese is fine on bread
Tastes even better with wine
Those French aren't so bad
Waking up I eat
Yogurt, drink milk, spread cream cheese.
Sleeping, dream of brie
Nations who deny
That fine artistry of cheese
Should leave planet earth
China and Japan!
Your cuisines are much lacking
In essential cheese.
Please repair your ways
And pass the message on to
Burma and Thailand!
-Rachel F
Cheese is pretty good
Wisconsin makes the best
Fuck California
-Philip D
The still point of Brie
Sliding silver down my throat
Can there be such bliss
-James F
A tincture of cheese
Injected to the heart gland;
The perfect murder
Chuggin' choo choo cheese
Casey Jones he helms the train
Powered by fondue
-Kevin C
Sink your teeth into
Mucus oozed from bovine teat
Curdled with enzymes
-Robin G
Eat cheese? I do not.
If I do I fill with snot.
No snot? Ollies pop!
-Rama
Advice of a Cheapskate Anarchist
Creamy havarti
Is too expensive to throw.
Use the tomatoes.
-Krista L
Cheese, how I love thee
Oh, so utterly, so sweet
Smells like stinky feet
-Christine Letarte
Vapor leaves traces
Holes in smooth fermented wheels
Tease tongue and palette
-Mark N
A cool cheese contest
I'm counting the syllables
Quick! Get back to work!
Little Miss Muffett,
Although famous, has nothing
Over Cheese dept's charms
'Cheese Pride!' is our cry
Fight for truth and liberty
The path is the whey
Our culture is odd:
'Cheesy' is perjorative
An insult to taste
A constrain'd format
Haiku is dense, elegant
It's a lot like cheese
Fresh mozzarella
Olive oil and tomatoes
Food fit for the gods
Cheese literature
Poems display the varied skills
Of Rainbow's smart workers
Somehow I can't see
Writing a page of haikus
For Package or Bulk
-Adam W
Glee from wee shopper
Cheese sample bowl now empty
Strong teeth, smiling face
Milk to heaven turns
Goat cloud and sheep istara
Praise bacteria!
Furry and pungent
Ripe daughter of Capricorn
Hidden pleasures 'wait
Capricious goat cheese
No matter how you cut it
Twenty-one a pound
Two-name cheese haiku
Brin d'Amour fits nicely when
Fleur du Maquis won't
Provolone swaying
French girls buying Chevre d'Or
Cheese counter in spring
Counting sheep tonight
Write cheese haiku instead, ah!
Solid dreams of cream
Let us explore that
Small round place deep in the heart
Of domestic Swiss
Brebis, breboui
Letarte and D'Louie skip
Off to France
Soy cheese, vegan cheese
Travesties of nature all
Dark side of the moon
The Cheese Primer says
Theoretically, the
Rind is edible
Whether it's soccer
Or Kraft Velveeta cheese spread
USA kicks ass
World Cup we don't care
Soccer is a stupid game
Limburger bastards
-D-Louie
Fermented milk sits
On the cold metal counter
Customer echoes
Fuzzy brownish gray
Inhabitable planet
You can taste and eat
Tiny bug flattened
Shipped in from Italy, trapped
In hard trentino
Mold is often sad
Not the life of party dips
Scraped by caterers
-Jeff R
I've obviated
Your insipid little game
The barrel is mine!
Cheese is pure evil
I know this because I've been
Vegan since last week
Tormenting my nose
A fetid stench fills the room
Someone cut the cheese
Despise cheese? I do
It gives me diarrhea
That is all for now
Evacuation
Of my bowels just because
I ate some cheese. Plop!
-Dan F
Seldom does the smell
Of cheese wither my nostrils
Must be limburger
Girls in big straw hats
Dream of cheese wrapped in nettles
Cowgirl creamery
How much pus, kind sir
Is in that Vermont cheddar?
You don't want to know.
-Sarah Fran W
Vegan warrior
Pizza, don't tell anyone
Goat cloud of defeat
-Mike M
In my hands I hold
Cheese for you to sample but
My heart holds contempt.
-Kristen C
ENTRIES BY NON-WORKERS:
I like cheese a lot
Guilty feelings overcome
God, I tipped a cow!
Aisle Nine is lame,
Their barrel selection sucks
And they don't sell cheese.
Lost my pants gambling
You guys have a nice barrel
Something about cheese.
I really love cheese;
Vegans won't even eat it.
Give me the barrel.
Give me the barrel,
Give me the barrel, stupid,
Or I'll kill you all!
Employees only?!
Tell me now, why don't you shit,
What a waste of time.
-David A
Pungent is my love
It has a stink that warms me
French muenster d'alsace
O taleggio,
What hides beneath the surface
Peel the zombie skin
-Anna C
