You unload some priceless bon mot and 400 years later, out of context, you sound
like an idiot. Here's an early green cheese citation from John Heywood's
Proverbes (1546): "The moon is made of a greene cheese," greene meaning new,
unaged. One can find similar quotes in the works of Francois Rabelais and Thomas
More. I'm hearing sarcasm here, but in that era before ;-) one can't be sure.
Other citations are clearer: "You may as soon persuade some Country Peasants,
that the Moon is made of Green Cheese (as we say) as that 'tis bigger than his
Cart-wheel" (Wilkins, New World 1, 1638), the implication being that Luna's
non-cheesiosity was not a matter regarding which even the rustics were in doubt.
