As one of Australia's most significant figures in our wine industry (Len Evans) once said/paraphrased, "it's just a bloody drink, so let's drink it".

Well put.
Eye likes what eye likes. I live on microwaved frozen veges and fish. washed down with a red wine that costs $2.80 a bottle. But I just don't understand (nor enjoy) plastic cheese?
