Free Eats Day 5: Cheese Overload

A word of caution to fellow lactose intolerant free eaters. Bring your Lactaid Fast Act . Free cheese is by far the most common eat in the city.

Amish Market 9th Ave & 50th St. - buttery Dutch Beemster cheese and overly sweet strawberry cheesecake samplesVinter Wine Market 9th Ave. and 46th St. -- 6 types of artisanal cheese and 1 fig cake sample (they don't allow photos inside)

Balducci's 8th Ave & 14th St. -- Finally, they had some cheese left! Huge spread of bread with cheesy crust, too (used for mustard sandwich).
