yabu we have it every week
we like the mature variety, and it is often on offer at sainsbos

TheArmadillo · 11/02/2009 16:41

YANBU - it always leaves a strange aftertaste in my mouth.

LauriefairycakeeatsCupid · 11/02/2009 16:41

yep, I buy it cos it's always on special but I only use it in sauces and scones as I find it gritty with salt crystals(the extra mature)

CrackerNut · 11/02/2009 16:41

Ohh no we love it here, get through 2 blocks a week easily.

Jojay · 11/02/2009 16:42

i love it (although I don';t like the crystals)
Hate cheese that crumbles when you touch it. We had some really crumbly cheddar - didn't bother grating it just put it in a bag and bashed it a bit and it fell to pieces.

SalmonintheLiffey · 11/02/2009 16:45

I'll tell you what cheese is disgusting. Wensleydale. eurururghghg, it's all wet and crumbly like cottage cheese that's been compressed.

YUCK.

snooks · 11/02/2009 16:45

yanbu - it is just not strong enough. it doesn't make the roof of my mouth itch like strong cheese should. imo.

sassy · 11/02/2009 16:46

We love it too. But I recognise how plastic it is.

WilyFox · 11/02/2009 16:46

Yes, and it is also supposed to make your jaw tingle, thats a sign of a good cheese
