Some gamers pick up a keyboard because it has a good enough battery life to outlast a long play session. Some pick one based on its competitive features. If you're the right kind of weird, you might build a cheese keyboard, instead, to show off on the internet.
MakerWorld user DirkMcGirk took to Reddit to show off this gloriously cheesy keyboard this week, complete with tiny cheese cutters keycaps, two cheese grater ornaments, a pairing of wine and jam keys, and an adorable little mouse on the Escape key.

In the comments to the Reddit post, RoberLobLaw2 describes the parallels between language used by the most pretentious connoisseurs of both keyboards and cheese:
"The word “creamy” is an understandable adjective in the world of cheese, it is also used to describe keyboards in a much less real, more tasteless way."
However, if you're looking for a new 3D printing project and want to own the strangest keyboard in a one-mile radius, this has got to be a strong contender. And if you would like your Escape key to be a little easier to read, some in the comments of the original 3D printing schematics have opted for a simple cheese block. Others have simply 3D printed cheese space bars, so they don't have to commit to the full look for a cheesy addition to their desk.
As pointed out by a comment, those keys 'would go hard' on Keebwerk's $400 swiss keyboard, though that feels like $350 more than I'm prepared to commit to a cheese-based joke right now.
Anyone else suddenly feeling a bit peckish?
