    The thing I love about this is how easy and healthy it is. It looks like it would take like 5 minutes tops to make.

    You had me at cheese and then platter! Haha, this really is a decorative piece for the 4th of July. I would have to pry myself to eat it, rather than just cherish the look. Brilliant way to serve up some cheese during 4th of July festivities!
