Although it should be relabeled slightly.
Instead of calling it the name of the region it was originally molded in, it should be called American made "xyz region". That way the EU poofters can pound sand over their regional label whines.
RSBT cheese for everybody!
In fact Kroger has a free Friday giveaway on their website. Except certain states citizens are denied from an occasional free cup of yogurt or pack of string cheese because of these govt monopolistic laws.
I’ve seen nothing but very noticeable rises in price for cheese these last 6-8 months. I buy a lot of Kraft block cheese as well as sliced. I used to get a half pound block for under $2.00 - now it is $2.69 or thereabouts. Even store brand prices have gone up.
The suspicious in me tells me the government is buying up the extra so the retailers can distributors can keep the prices up.
Where do I get some of that “government cheese?”
More Marxism to keep from lowering prices. It has been $2/lb higher than 3 years ago and now we see how.

Not a good idea. Too many rats would eat through it.
That Reagan cheese was great !
Taxpayers are really cheesed about this latest news.
IF we have such a surplus of cheese why hasn’t the price come down to reflect it?
More fun to rape your wallet than lower the price.
I’m like you buy it on sale at Kroger’s where I get gas points. Labor Day is almost here and gift cards will go to 4 times the gas pts...stock up and you can get $1 off up to 35 gals of gas, and if you fill more than once a month that can mean big savings plus what you saved on smart shopping and cash back on Discover or CC that gives cash back. Hubby fills my car that is not driven much from the 5 gal gas can, then takes it and the most driven SUV up and fills both. Saved $22 bucks yesterday, the $2.09 gas was just $1.09. Still have 60 cents off left, one of my boys can use.
I've been on SS going on 10 years now.... nobody has given ME any free cheese... all I get from the feds is what's left AFTER it's been through the horse...
NOT ENOUGH! There are fifty two million people getting some kind of government assistance! If we send each one ONE POUND there will not be enough to go around!
I see, I see, a future government program to produce more cheese so everyone on welfare can have one pound of cheese a year!
Clever post. Thx
What’s next?
Yogurt! Our government just contracted with the Muslim yogurt maker Chobani to buy millions of dollars of yogurt to give to all the public schools. This single source contract came after the Muslim give millions to Hillary and the government has spent millions to bring 12,000 muslims into Idaho where his plant is located.
Think about it - these Muslims don’t use toilet paper, won’t use hand sanitizer, and they’re making Chobani yogurt.
I think it was for people on SSI
Food banks you can’t miss it just follow the illegals.

You buy more cheese when it is on sale which means they occasionally put it on sale. I only buy cheese when it is on sale. I have two drawers in my spare refrigerator dedicated to cheese. One of them is for home made cheese.
Many grocery chains put name brand cheeses on sale as a loss leader, ie. below what it costs to produce. The sales are out there.
Just add another 1,000 pages to that "free trade agreement" - rewarding the producer in France who gave to the government but screwing the smaller producer in Switzerland who talked smack about Juncker, and making sure no new cheese producers in the US can get the same deal that the original five paid their Senators for, and adding a clause allowing 10,000 new Syrian migrants every year to work in the German cheese industry, and bailing out an Italian tire maker whose nephew had an affair with the daughter of a Danish cheese executive, and continuing a subsidy to a Soros-backed foundation which is trying to overthrow the government of Poland, and transferring some electronics technology to China in return for guaranteed minimum cheese imports...and everything will work out fine. :)
