2- Cheesecake

Cheesecakes always bring interest to my life. The prospect of cheese in a cake sounds horrible, it strays away from the conventions of most cakes:

Most cakes have sponge
Most cakes have chocolate in one form or another.

Now, to add to my theorum, lets look at the conventions of tarts:

Most tarts have a pastry or biscuit like base
Most tarts have a 'semi-solid' filling





So, why are cheesecakes called cheesecakes? Why not Cheese Tarts? and, in accordance to my taste buds... why dont cheesecakes/tarts/whatever taste like cheese?
