If Josh and I ever wanted freshly grated parmesan cheese atop our salad or pasta, Computer Cousin would say, "You've just destroyed your food." I'm sorry, but it's not like we put cheese on his food.
CC and MB once ordered steaks that had gorgonzola butter sauce on top (can't alter the food order because the kitchen prepares meals in mass quantity). They wound up cutting around the sauce rather than ordering something else that would result in less work, and less bitching from MB.
One night, tiramisu was on the dessert menu. One of the ingredients in this dessert is mascarpone cheese. It doesn't really taste cheesey, just creamy.
MR. NOCHEESE
I love tiramisu! I always get it if it's on a menu when I go out.

It says there's mascarpone cheese in it though.
JOSH'S DAD
Tiramisu always has mascarpone cheese in it.
MR. NOCHEESE
I didn't know that.
RONZINI
What would you like for dessert this evening?
MR. NOCHEESE
I'll have the chocolate cake.

So even though Mr. Nocheese has been enjoying tiramisu without a problem for years, once he found out there was cheese in it, he couldn't have it. Never mind the fact that he's never complained about a cheesey taste in any tiramisu - the fact that something that falls under the cheese family is involved in his once-beloved dessert means that he will forsake the cursed dessert henceforth.
That's the Nocheese No Cheese policy.
