Turophobia

Turophobia (from Greek turi, "cheese") is the fear of cheese. People suffering this phobia would avoid consuming cheesy stuff like cheese pizza. People fear cheese often because of their gooey appearance and cheesy taste. Turophobes would have difficult time getting near cheese and may result in cold sweat upon sight of cheese. Some turophobes even fear the words cheese, cheesy, and even similar sounded words and phrases like offensive terms.

Turophobia is an uncommon phobia, but Melissa North from Kent University in Ohio is a notable turophobe.
