Does the cheese advert calendar need to be kept in the fridge?

DD is a cheese fiend


But lives in a student house; not sure how practical the advent calendar would be - does anyone know?

[ladymariner]

Shouldn't worry....if she's anything like student ds it will be eaten by the first week of December!!

[katymac]

I know - but she is travelling on the 25th Nov so I don't know if I should give it to her then or post it for the 1st

Have you got one already? I've been looking in Asda online but haven't found one on there yet. I'd be interested to know too, if you put them in the fridge?

[katymac]

I don't think we can but them until Nov and I think they have to stay in the fridge & disappointingly they only have 5 types of cheese

[73kittycat73]

Oh Ok, thanks for the info though. Might still get one for my mum if I can. She loves cheese. Are you still going to buy one?

[katymac]

Not sure - I might make one with 24 cheeses I think

5 types seems a bit mean

I got really excited about the thought of a cheese advent calendar but was gutted about the 5 cheeses. It's not like there are only 5 different types of cheese to choose from is there now?

If you could get the outer packaging 'advent calendar' part right, I'm sure you could find 24 different little mini cheeses to make your own if you had several supermarkets locally to go to. M&S do a few for a start, as do most supermarkets.

They go on sale at asda on 6th November I believe.

[73kittycat73]

Thanks Iggy, will keep an eye out for them.
I suppose you'd have to really like the 5 cheeses on offer, lol. I'll have a look, see what they contain then go from there.

It’s cheese, so I’d say in a fridge or a consistently cold room.

Cheese that’s been left out in a warm room for 24 days is going to be pretty grim otherwise, isn’t it?

[HollyBollyBooBoo]

I was so excited about this, but 5 types of cheese? How rubbish is that!

[BarbaraofSevillle]

It does have to stay in the fridge, it says so on the bumpf about it and that the box is designed in a 'book style' to make that easier.
