Unless you have a specific intolerance, cheese is a perfectly fine bedtime snack. The myth is just a cultural joke that won’t die. So go ahead, nibble that aged Gouda. If you wake up screaming, it’s probably because your subconscious is still processing that episode of a true-crime podcast you watched, not because a Camembert monster is hiding under your bed.
Pro tip: If you’re really worried, just pair cheese with a few crackers to slow digestion. And maybe avoid Stilton right before you watch The Ring. But hey, you do you. Sweet dreams, and pass the cheddar.
