Post Who gets the cheese "nose"?

We write a weekly column on dining etiquette and were just asked this question . . .
"Is there a rule of etiquette that prescribes the eating of brie and camembert cheese when cut into wedges? Specifically, who should eat the nose (i.e. the point, where the cheese is tastiest) and when?"
Might there be a cheese expert out there who can shed some light on the subject? We'd appreciate any help you can give.

Although there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to cheese etiquette, it's only appetizing and considerate to others to attempt to retain a pleasant appearance when slicing cheese off a block. Whenever possible cut the cheese in such a way that preserves its shape for the next person, sharing the rind whenever possible. For example, if you're the first person to cut from a wedge of Brie, you should slice a thin wedge rather than cutting across the "nose."
