“You may as well persuade me, the moon is made of a cream cheese”.
The phrase I know is “green cheese”. Did it change over time or have I misheard “green” instead of “cream”. Cream does make more sense though now we don't speak of “a cream cheese”. When I’ve heard it perhaps isn't modern stuff, and this is from 1752.
