Okay, here's another of my posts on foods from the past that no one remembers but me....
I was a kid in the 70's and we used to get these little snack sized pieces of cheese. They were wrapped in a cellophane wrapper, twisted on both sides like the wrapper on a piece of hard candy. It was a small bite size piece of cheese, round, but flattened, like a 1-inch circle about 1/2 inch deep. White cheddar color, not yellow or orange.
We would eat them like candy. I think I thought they were candy. Could be the reason that as an adult cheese is my favorite indulgence.
Does anyone else remember these? Am I delusional? I grew up in southern NJ if that makes any difference, in case they were a local thing.
Sounds like a baby bell to me. When you peel off the plastic wrapper they are waxed just like a big hoop only they are little tiny things. Smooth white delicious mild.....drool. Dang I'm hungry now. They come in a little bag of like ten. I think I have some in the fridge. Excellent
Definitely not Baby bells. Everyone knows them, and they're in stores today. Those have a wax covering. What I'm talking about is smaller and in a candy-wrapper type wrapper.
What's a bel Piaisie? I'll do a search and get back to you.
Here, I drew a picture of it in microsoft paint. I'm sure if I had proper tools, like paint or pastels, I could have made a very realistic picture. But this is all I have the technology for. If you right-click on it and hit "open link" you can see it larger.

Naptowner's probably right, or maybe you were dreaming.
