Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 I know the topic of cheese has been discussed, but I went to the market this weekend and was talking with the guy in the dairy department. We started discussing cheese and about the aging process, etc. I told him I was only looking for cheeses that were aged over 30 days and he told me that as long as the cheese has the " official " gold seal, it indicates that it has been aged at least 30 days. Only certain (more expensive) brands state the cheese has been aged " over 30 days " or however long. I thought this was interesting and he seemed to know quite a bit about cheeses, but I just wanted to run it by the group to see whether in fact this is true? It is a great guideline if so..and there are much cheaper cheeses that have the " seal. " With the prices of groceries going up as they are..anywhere to cut down on prices would be great! Another question is why we are to only have " mild " or " medium " cheddar and not sharp? Also, I've only yet tried cheddar cheese, I don't care for parmesan, but what other cheese have people tried that have gone well for them? Thanks! na UC-July 07 SCD-March 08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
