Thank you for your cheese love PP

It’s a joy to read, and also a handy tip. Win win

MrsSkylerWhite · 30/12/2024 11:57

Aldi’s red fox Red Leicester and Lidl’s Somerset crunchy cheddar. Yum.

AlbertCamusflage · 30/12/2024 11:59

It is a timely thread for me. I am headed to Tesco soon with the ambition of stocking up on low-carb antidotes to Christmas grazing, and cheese figures highly on my list of intended purchases.
Will I go for st-felicien du dauphine? I don't know. What is the particular character of its deliciousness?

AllHisCaterpillarFriends · 30/12/2024 12:00

Will try, thanks OP

Will add to the list ..Whipped Feta.

Well, it's a bit like a particularly tasty brie without the bother of the rind

No - see what you started, PPs now pitching in with their cheese tips, you couldn’t BE more competent

for supermarket cheese winners I would like to throw in

M and S pie d'angloys - Camembert like loveliness

and M and S Cornish Cruncher - best SM cheddar I reckon

Butthistimesticktoit · 30/12/2024 12:07

I am here to second the st felicien and also to recommend for low carb goodness that it is excellent with celery or endive.

My cheese revelation this year has been from Costco. Somerset cheddar with truffle. Comes in black wax. It’s divine.

AlbertCamusflage · 30/12/2024 12:10

OK, I think I may go for it, OP. You officially are now a cheese-fluencer.

My cheese revelation this year was the rediscovery of an old favourite. Lincolnshire Poacher was a cheeseboard regular back at the turn of the century (god, doesn’t that make me sound old 🤣) but I hadn’t had it for years. Then a neighbour, in France of all places, had some on their cheeseboard and it was delicious. I think they were pandering to the foreigner…though it turns out they loved it. I’d forgotten just how good it is!

Staffordshire or Scottish??

Montagnolo Affine cheese - try it and thank me later. It combines the creamy goodness of Brie with the bite of a blue cheese.

January may have to be a cheese free zone as I have taken my appreciation of a cheese board to the extreme over Christmas. Still have New Year’s cheese board to go. At this point it’s almost endurance eating.

jhar · 30/12/2024 12:40

Not exactly fancy, but Oh wow, a Morrisons one.

It's like a red leister whirl. With garlic and herbs in white swirled into it.

It talks to you. "Eat me". " eat me alllllllllll" from the fridge.

Think it has some kind of addiction within

Yougetmoreofwhatyoufocuson · 30/12/2024 12:41

This is such a lovely post thank you. Am currently on a cheese free week as overdid it and have throbbing toe joints. But will be keeping your recommendations on standby.

SnoopySantaPaws · 30/12/2024 12:45

I'm going to cause Tesco to have a melt down if I open tomorrow's delivery AGAIN so I'll keep this in mind for my next order!

Finetoday · 30/12/2024 12:46

M&S Blackstick Blue - an orange ‘blue’ cheese.
Brought it by mistake one year thinking it was a hard cheese - it’s flipping glorious!
