Instead of parmesan cheese??????

Making chicken and bacon fettuccine tonight and need another cheese as the guests dont like it. What would you use?

just plain edam would be the safest if your guests are not fond of parmesan .

abbey_magick, my thoughts are not really going to answer your question but as a former detester of parmesan cheese I'm wondering about your guests' dislike of parmesan cheese and if they have formed a dislike of it in the same way as we and others we know did... . .

My first encounters with parmesan cheese were in the days before fresh parmesan was readily available - when parmesan came in the dried form in a shaker similar to a pepper shaker. IMO THAT parmesan, with it's vomit-like odour, is sooo revolting and both myself and DH formed a strong dislike to parmesan because of both it's taste and smell so we therefore avoided any recipes, etc. that included parmesan until the day when I discovered and bought a block/wedge of fresh parmesan - we have never looked back and now we absolutely enjoy anything with parmesan so long as it is not that revolting dried parmesan which I have taken the liberty of assuming you are not referring to.

Sorry that the above didn't really answer your actual question but maybe it's something that you'd like to consider. :-))

Romano is a good substitute

They are more of a basic food type people i guess you could say. I love most foods and will try anything, hard cooking for meat and 3 vege type ppl. I may end up going half and half on the cheese, to still have it, but subdued a little.
