If you’d like to be on or off this Upper Midwest/outdoors/rural list please FR mail me. And ping me is you see articles of interest.

Glad he's selling it. If he'd raise the price to $300 a pound, the White House would buy it.

I get some 12-13 yr old WI cheddar here locally, and it is just phenominal....

I can only imagine 15......

The longer cheese ages the less sugar it contains. I find 24 month cheddar to be just right, but can tolerate 12 month without much trouble.

We bought some 2 year old Chedder from Tillamook Co-op in Ore and I like the dry salty taste. I think I’ll go cut a piece. BRB...

That’s more maturity than some adults.

I wish I could afford that! I love all kinds of cheeses. The tangier, the better.

Why are there expiration dates on cheese products?

I was raised to believe that no cheese would never *spoil*.

In fact, my mom strained soured milk through *cheesecloth* and made cottage cheese.

Growing up in NH we ate Vermont and NY cheddars. The best was the stuff from the general store that was aged in a cheese box at room temperature for who knows how long. It was called rat cheese and it was wonderful served on saltines.

I have a block of Cabot Hunters Cheddar from Vt. that I my mom sent me for Christmas. I might crack it open and have some with a cold beer.

I’m sure it is delicious but yikes $50 a pound.:o Sorry but I have a major aversion to paying that much for something that can disappear in minutes! It’s only food and I can go buy a 2# block of white Cabots for $8 and be happy with $42 leftover!

Wish I hadn't read this thread. It's Lent, and I've got to fast, and you've all got me drooling over cheddar and Swiss and Blue Cheese. Hurry up, Easter!
