We had the pleasure of eating at our friend Meira's house for Shavuot. For the first course, she served gazpacho soup as well as a variety of cheese spreads with crackers. Among the various cheeses, there was this amazing Hungarian cheese spread. My son loved it so much that she packed some up for him to take home.
