Blessed Is The Cheesemaker

Stinking Bishop lives in fear of the Wallace & Gromit effect

Charles Martell, cheesemaker and self-confessed ageing hippy, is worried. His cheese, Stinking Bishop, is about to become world famous by taking a starring role in the new Wallace & Gromit film. Mr Martell, 59, fears that fans may clamour for his product, as they did when Wensleydale cheese featured in an earlier film.

...

"I'm quite happy with what I've got at the moment. I don't need more money. I can only wear one suit at a time, or drive one car. And I certainly don't want fame."

We must bring fame and riches to Mr. Martell!

Disinterest in celebrity and material goods is an affront to the American way. Imagine if his delusions spread!

You can help. Buy Stinking Bishop through Amazon.com (which is...er...famous for its cheese). Its sales rank at the time of this post is 53,004 in the Gourmet Food category.
