As for actual Lit comments, I just got one on Guilty Pleasures 5. I had wanted an epicurean detail for a fancy dinner between the protagonist and his current, beyond his control female companion. So I dug and dug, and Googled up the most obscure cheese I could find, and inserted it in the story.
And a reader...

Side note: Époisses is not exactly illegal in the USA. As long as it is not aged more than 49 days it is allowed. Age more than this is not allowed. I've had both variants, it is my favorite cheese. While I do like the older version, what is allowed in the USA is delicious as well.
