War on Roquefort

Yet another unfair blow given to the American people courtesy of the Bush legacy:
In its final days, the Bush administration imposed a 300 percent duty on Roquefort, in effect closing off the U.S. market. Americans, it declared, will no longer get to taste the creamy concoction that, in its authentic, most glorious form, comes with an odor of wet sheep and veins of blue mold that go perfectly with rye bread and coarse red wine.

What's a girl to do with out Italian sparkling water & Roquefort cheese?
