“Real as Colby cheese”

Jenny Delich, a star of MTV’s Real World: ex-plosion, said on the show in March 2014:
 
“I’m real as fucking Colby cheese, okay? I’m real.”
 
Delich then added, “I just made that up. I don’t know how real Colby cheese is.” The line quickly became popular and JennyDelich.com sold “Real as Colby Cheese” T-shirts.
 
 
Wikipedia: Colby cheese
Colby is a cow’s milk cheese.

History
oseph F. Steinwand in 1874 developed a new type of cheese at his father’s cheese factory near Colby, Wisconsin. The cheese was named after the village, which had been founded three years earlier. While Colby cheese is still available for sale, it is no longer produced in its native Colby, Wisconsin. A festival commemorating the cheese is held every year in mid-July where all local food booths offer free Colby cheese as well as bison burgers and ice cream milkshakes. A tractor and ATV pull also occurs during the festival on First Street.

Jenny and Jenna (Real World, 122,812,718,278,127 points)
Jacoby: On this week’s episode, Jenny and Jenna had the greatest exchange in the history of television. I watched it 17 times. Jenna is outside a club, while her (kind of) boyfriend Jay flirts with a cocktail waitress inside the club.

Jenny: “You’re a hot bitch; I would have to say you’re the hottest bitch in this house.”

Jenna: “Why are you tawkin’ to the bottle waitress in front of me?”

Jenny: “You are hotter than all those girls, and I’m telling you this because I’m being real with you. I don’t lie, and I’m not fake. I’m real as Colby cheese, I am real as fuck.”
 
Jenna: “Right.”
 
Jenny: “I just made that up. I don’t know how real Colby cheese is.”
