the blue jacket dairy garlic quark

i ordered a portobello mushroom sandwich at lunch yesterday and, although i do like portobello mushroom sandwiches, i am not over the moon about them, but the reason i ordered this particular portobello mushroom sandwich is because the menu said it had "blue jacket dairy garlic quark" on it and i was like, hell.........i gotta have that. (whatever that is.)

usually, if i don't know what something is on a menu, i'll ask. and by "usually i'll ask" i mean, usually i won't ask.

and so it was that i didn't ask what blue jacket dairy garlic quark was and so it was that when my sandwich arrived (btw, it was, hands down, thee best portobello mushroom sandwich i have ever had in. my. life. - and i give the credit to the blue jacket dairy garlic quark - whatever that is)......but when my sandwich arrived, i lifted the bread to see where the blue jacket dairy garlic quark was and, even though i wouldn't know a blue jacket dairy garlic quark if it stood up and punched me in the face........even though i wouldn't know it if it did that, i was still pretty convinced that my sandwich had arrived minus the blue jacket dairy garlic quark cuz i didn't see anything that even faintly resembled a blue jacket dairy garlic quark. whatever that is.

anyway, to make a boring story interesting (too late, i know)......anyway, to make a boring story interesting, this morning, i finally decided to google blue jacket dairy garlic quark and who knew?????

first of all, let's work backwards.....

a quark is cheese. who knew????

garlic quark is cheese with garlic in it. who knew???

the blue jacket dairy is an ohio-based dairy and they specialize in artisan cheeses, especially quarks, and especially garlic ones. who knew????

so there you have it. that's what a blue jacket dairy garlic quark is.


(i knew that.)
