Stilton Cheese Accompanies Vivid Dreams

In 2005, the British Cheese Board asked 200 volunteers to eat 20 grams of cheese 30 minutes before bed for one week and record their dreams. Among those given Stilton, 75% of men and 85% of women reported odd and vivid dreams, although nobody described the experiences as nightmares. The industry-sponsored study never appeared in a peer-reviewed journal, so it could not prove that Stilton caused the dreams.
