Cheese fondue is hip again

cheese fondueI can honestly say that I don't think I've ever had a cheese fondue, or a fondue of any sort, actually. It was big in the 70s and then seemed to vanish for several years, and now it's rather cool again. Can shag carpeting and Dorothy Hamill haircuts be far behind?

Actually, it has always seemed like a cool thing to me, but I've just never been in a situation where someone had fondue. But I can change all that starting today. It's National Cheese Fondue Day! Here are some recipes from AllRecipes, and here's some background on fondue in general.

Btw: my husband proposed to me at a Melting Pot restaurant and we fed each other strawberries dipped in chocolate to celebrate. Really great memory =)
