processed cheesetavený sýr Try coping with a party of underprivileged schoolchildren from a housing estate in Manchester with a near-hysterical social worker, a ghetto blaster and some crisp bags to sniff glue, two glum shaven-headed squaddies with flatulence, and a computer programmer from Maidstone who wants to tell you about why his promotion fell through, and then with one eye twitching, accuses you of having stolen his processed cheese. BNC There was a bar with no booze and a store, of sorts, where we bought some of almost every item we recognized, including carrots, processed cheese and chocolate, which tasted like cocoa-flavoured sugar. BNC Tomorrow never came, and we made do with bread, onions, and a form of processed cheese called La vache qui rit, the Laughing Cow. BNC |

cheese-paringkůra od sýra; maličkost, nicotnost; skrblictví Any cheese-paring of the logistic stocks reduces battle efficiency, and failure to look after barracks, married quarters, and installations in the short term piles up trouble and expensive rebuilding for the future. BNC It was not until ten years later that we began to see that in fact these very English store-cupboard provisions, so far from being suited to the cheese-paring methods necessitated by desperate shortages, demand first-class basic ingredients and a liberal hand with butter. BNC This is cheese-paring, I know, but it might help. BNC |
cheese(-)clothprocezovací pláténko na tvaroh, fáčovina, velmi jemná látka Shoulder-length blond hair, embroidered cheese-cloth shirt, single strand of beads -- I mean, beads but tasteful -- a sensual hint of hash and patchouli, and midnight blue denims stretched taut then flaring over the longest, leanest bass-guitarist's thighs in Glasgow. BNC I'm wearing a denim waistcoat, cheesecloth shirt and baggy denim jeans, and I'm smiling fit to burst, as I always seem to be in photographs.

cheesed (off)otrávený, nakrknutý In 1988, customers, so cheesed off with the Line's service, staged the famous so-called "battle of Finchley Central," occupying a train after an all-too-common announcement that it was to be diverted to Mill Hill East instead of `;speeding'; to its original destination of High Barnet. BNC On the other hand, imagine the embarrassment of calling a full-scale search out for somebody who is not only not in peril, but is mightily cheesed off to be awoken from a deep sleep by an RAF Sea-King helicopter blowing the filling out of their sleeping-bag? BNC Maybe he was cheesed off meeting people so far along the ridge without explanation as to their start point. BNC |

cheeseburgerkarbanátek se sýrem v housce A proper discussion of a football match cannot occur if one of the participants is quite ignorant of the rules of the game; and the kind of assessment of a restaurant meal that would involve the possible insertion of the establishment into a good food guide (or perhaps its deletion from it) will not get very far if one of the diners does not care for the meal because his idea of a gastronomic treat is a cheeseburger and french fries (though within the order of the burger discriminations are possible). BNC It's 4.30 on a Friday afternoon and she's ordering a cheeseburger with mayo, ketchup and fries and a cup of tea. BNC You know, for instance, that ordering deep-fried breaded mozzarella bites in an Italian restaurant will mean plenty of cholesterol, saturated fat and calories, and that a hefty cheeseburger on a sesame bun is rich in animal fat, protein and refined carbohydrates.
