Cheese - West Country Farmhouse

That's West Country, England not BC

I don't know how long they've had it but I saw it in the Walmart flyer under the Our Finest label. 200g @ $4.97.

Vintage or Extra Mature. Bought one of each. Tried some of the Vintage today. Very tasty.
I think a return visit might be made for more.

I buy the Colliers from Costco. It's not cheap but it's a good Caerphilly. I'll try that Walmart one though

Yes it's not bad.

We're seeing more and more good cheddars without the need for a mortgage. Snowdonia Truckles are around too.
Tickler is another.

I believe that is the only welsh beer at Costco? For me, Costco, is a good place, price wise for cheese as long as I get cheese that we will go through in time. The goat cheese that they sell is in rather large quantities unless you're having a number of people over.

The Reggiano Parmiagiano they sell has been a staple in our house for years now. Now if only they had manchego

i love Tickler but I haven’t managed to find it here though. I brought some of the Snowdonia from Independent the other day - I used my PC Points as it’s was $12 for 200g

Cost-Co used to sell the Snowdonia in larger quantities at a better price but I haven’t seen in the Vancouver, Burnaby or Richmond stores for 2 years.

thats a regular cheese I buy all the time. The double pack lasts me about 6 weeks. Use it in salads and wraps all the time. I go through it quickly sometimes
