Beaufort Deep Cut

8 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 61 accepted answers on the sheet

Walk past the supermarket default. We would type Beaufort: Deep Cut, +85, 8 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on American cheese, Cheddar, Mozzarella, or Parmesan — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Vacherin Mont d'Or (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Vacherin Mont d'Or +100
