Or with cheddar cheese!
How awful is that substance they mark with the word cheddar and sell in stores in the states! Argh!
- Brakenshire 6y agoI had a cheese marked “Gruyere” in the US which was a bleached white paste.

- chrisseaton 6y agoI really dislike that the US took the name 'Cheddar' and applied it to basically mean generic cheese with no other characteristics. Traditional Cheddar is a great cheese with its own merits.
- ghaff 6y agoSomething like the sharper Cabot cheddars aren't bad for a day-to-day cheese. But it certainly is a completely different cheese than artisanal long-aged cheddars whether from the UK or the US.
- danans 6y agoFor a great US alternative, try Prairie Breeze by Milton Creamery (in Iowa). Very tasty stuff. https://miltoncreamery.com/prairie-breeze/ https://miltoncreamery.com/prairie-breeze/
- projektfu 6y agoCheddar is a name of a process as well as a location.
- chrisseaton 6y agoI think that's 'cheddaring'. So they could call it 'cheddared cheese' instead of 'Cheddar cheese' like they do at the moment.
