Longley Farm Strawberry yoghurts

[Scrowy]

Are the best yoghurts.

No point arguing with me, I've taste tested many over the years and these always win hands down.

Longley Farm hazelnut yoghurt is the best.

They are a few miles away from me. I drive or ride past them at least once a week. One of their lorries was delivering to our village shop about 30 mins ago. Their stuff is everywhere from the paper shop to big Morrison’s here. It always amuses me that they are some kind of rare delicacy elsewhere! When I was growing up in London I remember buying them in the posh deli!

Moving away from yoghurts and cottage cheese, the fromage frais pots are fabulous, especially the damson.

They used to do a smoked cheese cottage cheese, that was amazing! Not seen it for years though, maybe we need a petition for its revival?

Their cottage cheese is the best, not sloppy like others. I prefer their rhubarb yoghurt to the other flavours.
Our milkman delivers ours.

Longley Farm yogurts are the only flavoured ones I'll eat. Most others have artificial sweeteners & far too much crap in. I like blackcurrant, mandarin, black cherry, raspberry the best. But all of them are good. Even the weird "dessert" flavoured ones like fudge etc, I think they have/had an apple pie version which is ok.

And YY to the cottage cheese. Even their low fat version is better than most other brands standard version.

We're Yorkshire so we get loads of it in the supermarkets round here. All the yoghurts, cottage cheese, cream, creme fraiche etc.

I know! I grew up with LF just being the normal one, that's in all the shops and most people buy. It's usually the cheaper option compared to bigger brands, so people are sometimes buying it because they habitually get the cheapest one that seems OK. They've never tried the other ones because there's no need. It's nice and it's cheaper, so why wouldn't you?

Our Waitrose seems to treat Seabrooks crisps in a similar fashion. They're on a special 'end of aisle special local artisan' stand, but they've always just been the normal crisps to me.

It is weird seeing people struggle to find them. I’m in Yorkshire and they are in pretty much every supermarket and farm shop and in some smaller shops too.

I have found my people. The cottage cheese and rhubarb yoghurt for me.

Yes, me too. Has anyone tried raspberry/strawberry jam and their cottage cheese on toast?

Get you with Waitrose! That puts you in 1 of about 4 across all three ridings!

But yes, Seabrook’s are another moderate sized Yorkshire product, heralded in a similar manner.

A few years ago when the CoOp did a “local food week”promotion, the one near work (S Leeds), promoted Carlsberg*, Fox’s biscuits, Longley Farm stuff, Seabrook’s and Yorkshire Tea!

*it was quite a few years ago

I love the vanilla yoghurt and the blueberry. I won't buy any other cottage cheese either. Love that it's so thick and much better than that watery stuff from other cottage cheese producers.

Mostly eat full fat Greek yoghurt but agree that Longley Farm are the best / only acceptable fruit yoghurts.

There is no reason to eat cottage cheese ever, though. Even Longley Farm.

Agree with the Longley Farm cottage cheese and flavoured yoghurt love. For cream lovers, you should try their Jersey extra thick double cream. Golden coloured, thick deliciousness 😍 Its sold in the big Asda in the next town to us (NE).

I will only ever buy LF cottage cheese.

And whenever I get chance I stock up on their raspberry yogurts. They are delicious!

I'm hideously lactose intolerant so I can't eat any of this lovely stuff, but I do recall buying Longley Farm cream cheese once. It was in the tall pot not a flat tub. Never had cream cheese like it - I even spread it on scones with jam. I wouldn't do that with Philly; too 'cheesy'. Excellent stuff.

Longley Farm caramel yoghurt is the best. Their extra thick cream reminds me of Christmas because growing up it was the only time we had it - on top of the Christmas pudding

Oh yes forgot how amazing the Jersey cream is 😋

That's it. I'm hunting down some Longley Farm cottage cheese tomorrow. Plus a hazelnut yogurt 😋

Same - I grew up in Yorkshire and they were everywhere. I’m in the north east now and they’re up here too.

As for Seabrook crisps, my secondary school sold these exclusively. You’d ask the dinner lady for pickled onion or cheese and chive and they’d spend ages looking through the special crisp trolley for the flavour you’d asked for

^^this was pre-Jamie Oliver, not sure the crisp trolley will still be up and running

I grew up on Longley Farm yoghurts and milk (green top) they were our local dairy. I now live far away, but our local farm shop stocks a lot of their products.
There double cream is the best.

I have to restrain myself from buying the Jersey cream too often. Sometimes it’s so thick it’s spreadable, almost like clotted cream.

My neighbour used to have a lodger, who was a driver for Longley Farm. He used to take clotted cream to Cornwall! 🤣

When I was a child, my bf's parents used to sell the milk from their farm to Longley farm. That's my excuse for buying it now. Other than That it's lovely stuff.
