The holidays are quickly approaching, and one of our favorite ways to celebrate is with charcuterie — we mean, quality time with loved ones ​over​ charcuterie. Either way, the charcuterie is there. If you love the idea of making roses out of salami and alternating cheese slices to create food art, you need a cheese board that is up to par. From multi-level cheese boards to built-in cheese knives, there's one for every occasion. (Good luck trying to get anyone to move away from the cheese, though.)
