Did you know that we have more varieties of cheese than the French?
Traditionally cheese was made by mixed farmers unable to get their fresh milk to the populous, giving us famous cheese ‘names’ like Gloucester, Stilton, Cheshire or Cheddar.
With the low milk price farmers in the home counties are fighting back with some great new cheeses.
It is a shame to see so much imports when we have so many fantastic cheeses. Especially seeing products like, cream cheeses made in Germany from English powdered milk.
So find and support your local cheese and watch out for entrepreneurial dairy farmers developing a cheese for your county, perhaps you can help create a new variety.
So all you have to do is use our map to find your local cheese, or for a delivery check our MarketPlace for cheese or see if there are any deals in our Deal of the Day page, and don’t be afraid to phone first and get a recommendation. And for inspiration try our recipes.
