I had a toasted bagel, coffee, and a wedge of Brie, the latter  purchased
at the local Wegman's, for breakfast today.

My spouse gagged at the cheese with some remark like, "I don't know
you can stand that awful stuff!"

OTOH he lives on the solid cheeses - Cheddar, Ementaler, etc.

Why is it that in the USA soft, ripened cheeses are so  unpopular?

The soft cheeses we get in the USA - Brie and Camembert,  pale
in the odor/strength department to some of those routinely found  on
good restaurant cheese trays in France.
