“I wonder what would happen if you put a small insect in some soft French cheese, briefly?”

The word “briefly” is not composed of the words “brie” (a soft French cheese) and “fly (an insect), but there are jokes.

Wikipedia: Brie
Brie (/briː/; French: [bʁi]) is a soft cow’s-milk cheese named after Brie, the French region from which it originated (roughly corresponding to the modern département of Seine-et-Marne). It is pale in color with a slight grayish tinge under a rind of white mould. The rind is typically eaten, with its flavor depending largely upon the ingredients used and its manufacturing environment

A small, winged insect just landed on my soft French cheese! Luckily it was only briefly.
