I was wondering, just where did the joke about Goblins loving Gouda originate, anyway?

It's just been a thing in the comic, like V being a vegetarian. Goblins like gouda.

Can we get XP for the Stone Golem and the Flesh Golem?

Yup, totally going with that. You destroyed a stone golem, then spawned a flesh golem, and defeated that one too. Double xp!

Think the first mention of it is from Battle of Azure City, when Elan suggests disguising themselves as cheese merchants (because everyone knows hobgoblin can't resist a fine gouda). Since then it snowballed. I don't think it's a reference to any other d&d campaign setting.

In a very old D&D campaign I played in, gouda was the only cheese that had an alignment. (Yeah, it was that kind of world). And paladin's refused to eat deviled eggs or deviled ham. (Yeah, it was that kind of world). And angelfood cake healed you for 1 HP per slice. (Yeah, it was that kind of world)

So is it a goblin, hobgoblin, or goblinoid thing?
